Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition Coming to Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026: Everything You Need to Know

Bethesda Softworks has officially announced that Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition is set to launch on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026, marking the fan-favorite RPG's long-awaited debut on Nintendo’s upcoming console.

The definitive release will also arrive on additional contemporary platforms, bringing together the full Fallout 4 experience with expansive new content for a new generation of players. Fallout 4, which first released in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC, has maintained a strong following due to its open-world design, deep customization, and gripping narrative set in a post-apocalyptic Boston.

Developer Bethesda Game Studios has supported the title with multiple DLC packs and extensive mod support.

With over 12 million copies shipped at launch and continued high sales, Fallout 4 remains one of Bethesda’s best-performing titles. The Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 and other platforms collects the base game alongside all six official add-ons: Automatron, Far Harbor, Nuka-World, and three Workshop expansions.

According to Bethesda, this special release ensures that every major quest line, gameplay feature, and exploration opportunity from the 2015 classic is included. In a statement provided by the publisher, Bethesda highlighted, "This comprehensive edition features the core game plus all six acclaimed add-ons—Automatron, Far Harbor, Nuka-World, and the suite of Workshop expansions.

Whether your play style favors settlement building, robot combat, or exploring the secrets of the Commonwealth, it’s all here.

Additionally, over 150 pieces from the Creation Club are bundled in, incorporating fan-favorite mods and previously unreleased bonuses designed to enhance the Wasteland adventure.

From new weapons and quest content to unique Dogmeat breeds, the Anniversary Edition delivers something for every Vault Dweller." The inclusion of over 150 Creation Club items means Switch 2 players will enjoy an array of new features and user-created content, including fresh weapons, special character skins, gameplay tweaks, and expanded questlines.

While the trailer suggests parity with the last-generation PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions, specifics on graphical updates or Switch 2-exclusive enhancements have not yet been detailed by Bethesda. The Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition’s arrival on Nintendo Switch 2 not only broadens the series’ reach but also cements Bethesda’s commitment to bringing top-tier AAA RPG experiences to Nintendo’s new hardware.

As more details—such as a definitive release date and Switch 2 optimization features—are revealed, both longtime Fallout fans and new players can look forward to exploring the Commonwealth wasteland in its most complete form yet, available digitally via the Nintendo eShop and at retail. For those following major RPG publishers and hardware launches, Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition on Nintendo Switch 2 is poised to be a significant release in 2026, bringing one of Bethesda’s critical successes to a broader, portable audience.
