Fallout 4 may not live up to the heights of Fallout 3 or New Vegas in some fans’ eyes, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that it remains a fantastic game – and one which is only enhanced by the long list of fanmade mods out there. Many of the best Fallout 4 mods are all about altering or improving the gameplay, but let’s take a minute to focus on visuals.

The game was released back in 2015, so it’s safe to say that better-looking games have been released since then. However, when you throw in a ton of mods designed to improve the visuals with ray-traced color grading, the difference is immediately apparent. This showcase comes just before the release of the RTX 50 series – we’re sure that an RTX 5090 will have no problem running it smoothly maxed out like this.

More than 300 mods combined to improve Fallout 4 visuals

As shared by Digital Dreams on YouTube, Fallout 4 has gotten what they call the ‘Beyond All Limits’ treatment. According to the video description, this runs the game in 8K resolution and introduces ray-tracing color grading. While this isn’t true ray tracing within the engine, it does help improve color balance and lighting. You can check out the results in the video below.

No performance stats are shown on-screen, but the game doesn’t seem to have any problems running smoothly. It’s worth keeping in mind that a beast of a system is being used in this demonstration. The key specs are as follows:

• Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus X670 AX
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
• RAM: Kingston Fury 6000MHz
• Storage: M.2 Samsung 970 evo, Crucial MX500 2TB, Seagate Barracuda 14TB
