Games are often delivered with varied amounts of content, intriguing NPCs, quests, etc. Sometimes, however, developers don't or can't include what the players want. That's where mods come in -- and Fallout 4 is no exception.

Bethesda Game Studios officially announces that mod support for its post-apocalyptic RPG Fallout 4 will not be coming to Sony's PlayStation 4 consoles. Fallout 4 Mods Finally Coming to PS4 Very Soon Finally. By Eddie Makuch on November 7, 2016 at 4:53PM PST. Fallout 4 mods have been available on Xbox One and PC for many months now.

With mods being made available on the PlayStation 4, players can finally start tweaking the game to match their expectations and make the game even crazier than it already is. Here of some of the best mods for Fallout 4 on PS4 so far, and where you can download them.

Nuka World Glory

Creator SlacksNawfsides wanted to return Nuka World to its former pre-war glory as a functional theme park. The mod removes the raider content and is still a work in progress, but the revitalized Nuka World is just so beautiful.

The Beantown Interiors Project

While wandering the wasteland that is the Commonwealth, you may have noticed there are quite a few boarded up buildings. This mod, created by Chucksteel, aims to unlock those buildings, allowing players to explore and loot them to their hearts content.

Unlockable Settlement Objects

Settlements and being able to build them piqued many gamers' interests when Bethesda announced their inclusion in Fallout 4. Unfortunately, settlement building proved to be less than fulfilling for a large amount of players. Enter in AndrewCX's Unlockable Settlement Objects mod, which allows players to build items such as cars, hospital beds, custom floors and more.

Cheat Container

This mod by Vicyorus works amazingly well in conjunction with the Unlockable Settlement Objects mod above. Even on its own, the cheat container is invaluable. Holding 60,000 units of building resources, your settlements will be constructed in no time.

Arguably one of the most annoying things about Fallout 4 is the amount of skeletons you find all over the place. Even in homes that have been reclaimed and are now lived in, dead bodies litter the ground. Wouldn't the people have gotten rid of them? Now you can! This mod by 3lric is the answer to my -- and many other players' -- prayers.

Cleaning Station for Clutter

This delightful mod by DayCraftMC crafts a cleaning station that you can use. What does it do? Well...it takes your junk, purified water, and abraxo and 'cleans' the items, giving you shining toasters, brand spanking new pool balls, etc. This is great for decorating settlements, especially vaults where you want to include new items but only have ones dirtied by the wasteland.

Update, September 9, 12:44 p.m. EDT: Bethesda has finally confirmed why Fallout 4 mods haven't arrived on PlayStation 4, and the developer is saying that it's Sony's fault.

'Sony has informed us they will not approve user mods the way they should work: where users can do anything they want for either Fallout 4 or Skyrim Special Edition,' Bethesda told fans on its official blog on Friday. 'Like you, we are disappointed by Sony’s decision given the considerable time and effort we have put into this project, and the amount of time our fans have waited for mod support to arrive.'

Only one of the technical limits mentioned in our original report (below), about mod storage limits, is on Sony's side, so that may very well be the sticking point that Sony refuses to budge on. Bethesda's statement leaves room for Sony to change its tune and enable the same kind of console-mod support that Xbox One players of Fallout 4 are currently enjoying.

When Are Mods Coming To Fallout 4 Ps4 2017

Fallout 4 mods, a rarity in the console world. PlayStation 4 owners, however, are still waiting for the same feature, seemingly owing to continuing technical problems and issues with Sony.

PS4 modding for Fallout 4 was initially promised for some time in June, after the late May release of Xbox One mod support. By mid-June, however, Bethesda admitted to running into problems with memory and performance issues on the console, struggles with the PS4's proprietary sound file format, and a Sony-imposed mod storage limit of 900 MB (compared to a full 2GB on the Xbox One). Despite all that, a closed beta for PS4 modding was reportedly 'close to ready' at the time.

It wasn't until the end of June that Bethesda officially delayed that beta indefinitely. By early August, Bethesda could only say that it was 'working with Sony on Fallout 4 Mod support for PS4' and that 'the process [for adding PS4 mods] is still under evaluation.'

In a new interview with the UK's Metro newspaper, Bethesda's Pete Hines confirmed that the feature has not been abandoned despite the long delay and radio silence from the company. 'It’s definitely not that we’ve decided not to do it; we absolutely, positively want to get PS4 mods out as fast as humanly possible.'

When given the opportunity, Hines refused to point the finger directly at Sony for the continuing delays, simply repeating again that the feature is 'undergoing an evaluation process.' But Hines has previously hinted that external forces are preventing him from sharing the full story behind the wait. In July, he tweeted that Bethesda was waiting for an update it could share with its fans. Asked in a follow-up why Bethesda was hurting its credibility by 'keeping players in the dark,' Hines replied, 'I don't disagree. We have explained that to 'others' so we can get/share an update. So far it hasn't worked.'

Bethesda's apparent struggles with Sony come as a number of developers have named Sony as the sole barrier to setting up cross-platform gameplay between the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. 'Right now, we're literally at the point where all we need is the go-ahead on the Sony side and we can, in less than a business day, turn [cross-platform play] on and have it up and working, no problem,' Psyonix Vice President Jeremy Dunham said in July.
