Fallout 4's First Patch Hits Xbox One

Having already launched on PC and PlayStation 4, Fallout 4's first patch has now landed on Xbox One. Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb announced today that the patch, 1.2, has arrived.

You should be prompted to download and install the update the next time you boot up the RPG.

The 1.2 patch notes include bug fixes for things like players getting stuck in terminals and another issue involving the "When Freedom Calls" quest. The update also delivers "general memory and stability improvements" as well as a fix for crashes that triggered when jumping in water.

It also fixes a bug where equipped weapons get locked after completing Reunions and clears out a problem where, under certain circumstances, a player's health would constantly regenerate.
