This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Fallout 4 for PlayStation 4
Fallout 4 begins in Vault 111 and sends the Sole Survivor through ruined Boston in search of a missing child. You explore the Commonwealth, choose factions and build a character with the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. system. V.A.T.S. slows combat for targeted shots, while workbenches modify weapons, armour and settlements. The main game is a standalone solo campaign; expansions belong only when the edition explicitly includes them. Controls, player setup and edition details were therefore checked specifically for this PlayStation 4 version.
The campaign builds each situation around clear objectives, enemies or obstacles and controls that you gradually learn to master. Difficulty comes from timing, positioning and intelligent use of available resources. Exploring, trying again and choosing another approach often achieve more than haste. The fixed content on the disc therefore matters most. Any network features are mentioned only as historical options, not as services guaranteed to work today.
Fallout 4 divides progression between main objectives, free exploration and missions that develop its characteristic systems. New equipment or abilities provide more choices, but positioning, preparation and reading the environment remain decisive. The content described is that of the PlayStation 4 disc edition; network features, codes and downloadable packs are mentioned only where relevant to this release.
Region and language
Our PlayStation 4 games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Fallout 4 for PlayStation 4 was originally released without a printed manual. This edition therefore does not come with a separate instruction booklet. Its absence does not mean that an item from the original packaging is missing.
Instructions for the controls and rules are provided in the game. Any additional leaflets or advertising inserts are not manuals and are only included if stated in the product details. We use the label “No Manual” for copies missing a manual that was originally supplied. You should therefore not expect a printed booklet with this game unless a special edition explicitly states otherwise.
The history of Fallout 4
Bethesda Game Studios developed Fallout 4; Bethesda Softworks released the PlayStation 4 edition on 10 november 2015. Its systems and presentation gave the game a distinct place in its series. This physical copy is assessed as the original PS4 release. Later updates, downloadable packs, remasters and sequels are not silently attributed to this disc. This keeps disc content, edition names and later services clearly separated. De standaarddisc bevat niet automatisch de zes uitbreidingen van latere GOTY- of Anniversary-uitgaven.
This physical release preserves a defined version from its original console generation. Later expansions, patches, servers and reissues may have added or changed features, but are not attributed to this disc. Its original design choices and technical limits belong to this edition. Developer, release period and platform were therefore checked separately. Differences in controls, presentation and accessories between consoles are also stated where they affect what can actually be played.
On PlayStation 4, Fallout 4 belongs to a generation in which large worlds, narrative campaigns and systems-driven action often converged. The release shows how Bethesda Game Studios used those possibilities, while comparisons with contemporaries clarify which choices belong to this title. The physical disc remains the baseline; later patches, digital extras and services do not silently expand what this used copy includes.
