The suit asserted that the Season Pass was supposed to contain the totality of Fallout 4 downloadable content (DLC) for a single price, but the introduction of the Creation Club in 2017 reneged on that promise as Season Pass holders would be forced to purchase the Creation Club content to gain access to any additional Bethesda-made content.ĭuring the suit's litigation in court, ZeniMax and Microsoft had announced plans to acquire ZeniMax, which was anticipated to close by June 2021. The Creation Club is the instigating factor behind a class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of Fallout 4 customers against Bethesda Softworks and ZeniMax Media in 2019 over questionable business practices involving the handling of DLC content for the game's Season Pass. Ī number of modders supported the system, however, due to its "improved quality control process" and the fact that existing mods cannot be stolen and sold by others. Reception Īt launch, Creation Club was criticized for the content being too similar to free mods, and the requirement to purchase in-game credits with real-world currency. Journalists reported that Creation Club content was being automatically downloaded to players' hard drives, regardless of whether the players had purchased the content, which Bethesda said they were looking at how to fix. ĭespite being described by critics as "paid mods", Bethesda has disputed this, as the content was made by independent creators using funding from Bethesda. The system was launched for Fallout 4 on August 29, 2017.
Creation Club is a system of microtransactions designed by Bethesda Game Studios for its games Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Special Edition.
