Update (July 5):
Fallout 4 Update 1.6 is now live on PC, with an Xbox One version coming next week. For PlayStation 4, Bethesda said, “We are working on timing for the PS4 version and will update as soon as we have new information.”
Original Story:
Available now in Steam Beta, and going to approvals on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One “in the coming weeks,” Fallout 4 update 1.6 includes ExitSave, which creates a temporary save file when you exit to the main menu.
Here’s what Bethesda had to say about ExitSave:
Exiting to the Main Menu will create an ExitSave. During next play session, the ExitSave will delete itself after you load it. The Existsave works in all difficulty levels including Survival.
Additionally, update 1.6 will include new add-on specific icons in Workshop mods and support for the upcoming pieces of DLC: Vault-Tech Workshop in July and Nuka-World in August.

As for Fallout 4 update 1.5.4, it’s live on PC and Xbox One, and delayed on PS4. “We hope to have an update for PS4 1.5.4 Update and the PS4 Closed Beta soon,” Bethesda said.
