According to the outlet, the Xbox One allows more space up to 2GB on the hard drive but the PS4 only allows up to 900MB. Furthermore, PlayStation has compatibility issues with the performance, memory and textures of the game.
Apart from "Fallout 4" issues, Bethesda is having more problems with Sony as a whole. The sound files used in mods aren't easily translated to the Sony console because of proprietary issues.
PS4 Mods Release Date?
Unless Bethesda has already worked out the issues with the PS4 console and Sony, the mods won't be available anytime soon. Since the gaming company is intent on releasing a PS4 version for "Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" on October, they might have ironed out the issues and/or release the "Fallout 4" mods before then.
Mods were only previously exclusive for PC gamers, but Bethesda has gone ahead and released separate versions for two of the most best-selling consoles. Furthermore, they also have a mod support for quirks and bugs. The mod support and Creation Kit tools are already available for Xbox One and PC.
