Fallout 4 will be free to play this weekend on Xbox One and PC via Steam.

The free weekend gives players access to the base game and each platform's respective library of mods from May 25 through May 28, according to Bethesda. The publisher notes an active Gold membership is required for Xbox One players.

While PlayStation 4 players won't have access to the trial period, they will be able to take advantage of this weekend's Fallout 4 sale, which sees the base game discounted by 67 percent on all platforms. The season pass will also be on sale throughout the weekend.

Fallout 4 was released in November 2015 to critical and commercial success. In addition to becoming that year's third best-selling game in the U.S., Fallout 4 earned a 9.5 from IGN's review, in which we called it "hugely successful sandbox role-playing game."
