Namely, the <strong>Creations Menu will kick some players when accessed, quitting to the desktop can crash the game, and overall, the game is simply not launching for some<\/strong>. However, it seems that disabling <em>Fallout 4<\/em> mods will be a serviceable workaround for the time being. There are some reports of this happening to players who did not even purchase any of the <em>Fallout 4<\/em> anniversary upgrades. While these issues are not necessarily game-breaking, not being able to enjoy the game on its anniversary can be upsetting. The irony is not lost on fans, as Redditor Actual-Damage-4216 said, in a comment on the Reddit thread above, that &#8220;breaking the game on its anniversary is peak Bethesda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"body-img portrait \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item-portrait\" style=\"padding-bottom:163.92552366175%\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg\" data-modal-id=\"single-image-modal\" data-modal-container-id=\"single-image-modal-container\" data-img-caption=\"&quot;&quot;\">\n                                                                                            <picture><source media=\"(max-width: 480px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=360&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=360&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=600&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=600&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 1023px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1\"\/><img width=\"750\" height=\"1229\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Bethesda announcement\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/bethesda-announcement.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1\"\/>\n        <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Bethesda has issued a statement on the matter, stating that it is &#8220;actively investigating an issue affecting the delivery of Creations Club content after purchasing the Creations Bundle or Anniversary Edition.
