Fallout 4 Expansion Pack
Release Date: May 19, 2016
The third in turn and the first major DLC for the fourth entry in the cult post-apocalyptic franchise, Fallout. In Fallout 4: Far Harbor, we take on a case from Valentine’s Detective Agency. Following the trail of a missing girl, the protagonist leaves the Commonwealth and finds himself on a heavily irradiated island on which the eponymous coastal town is located.
Far Harbor for PC, PS4 and XONE and other platforms is the third DLC for Fallout 4, a sandbox RPG. At the same time, it is the first major story expansion for the title. Just like in case of the vanilla game, the PC, PS4 and XONE version was developed by Bethesda Softworks.
Having installed Far Harbor, the player goes back to Valentine’s Detective Agency, where a new case awaits resolving. Following a trail of a missing girl, the protagonist leaves the Commonwealth and finds himself on the eponymous Far Harbor—a heavily radiated and vast island with a coastal town and a number of other locations. Soon after arrival, the protagonist engages into a conflict between three local factions: the synths (from the secret colony of the Institute), the Children of Atom, and the ordinary inhabitants of the isle. Weaving between the aforementioned groups, the hero tries to uncover then mysteries of Far Harbor and bring peace to it.
Far Harbor offers a vast region, the biggest of all that Bethesda created for an expansion to any of their games released to date. Apart from the town, there is a myriad of other locations to explore, including settlements to be developed, as well as undergrounds in which the player can take on a number of primary and secondary quests. Furthermore, Fallout 4: Far Harbor for PC, PS4 and XONE introduces previously unavailable enemies, weapons, armor, and other similar elements, as well. What is important, the add-on presents challenges of higher difficulty level than those from the vanilla game.

Game Ratings for Fallout 4: Far Harbor Video Game.
IGN: 8.3 / 10 by Dan Stapleton
Fallout 4: Far Harbor adds a large amount of great quests and content within its gloomy but distinctive island setting. Thanks to some well-written, morally ambiguous characters, its choices are as gray as the weather, and much more interesting. Though the new companion isn’t the strongest and the supposedly ruinous radioactive fog is more annoying than threatening, all of the adventuring and new gear absolutely made it worth my while to return to Fallout 4 for Far Harbor.
PlayStation Universe: 7.5 / 10 by Neil Bolt
Easily the best DLC entry for Fallout 4 to date, Far Harbor introduces some exciting new enemies and a tighter, more enjoyable main storyline. It also brings an air of over-familiarity and fresh performance issues that blight an otherwise exceptional expansion.
Post Arcade (National Post): 7.5 / 10 by Chad Sapieha
Massive new DLC pack delivers a great new map filled with fresh quests, plus the same old bugs and inventory management problems
