The very first DLC for Fallout 4 called Automatron, is about to go official very soon, according to multiple reports. It's one out of the three upcoming add-ons.

"The mysterious Mechanist has unleashed a horde of evil robots into the Commonwealth, including the devious Robobrain. Hunt them down and harvest their parts to build and mod your own custom robot companions. Choose from hundreds of mods; mixing limbs, armor, abilities, and weapons like the all-new lightning chain gun. Even customize their paint schemes and choose their voices," Bethesda said.

Fallout 4 DLC will be beta-tested before release, according to reports. Players accepted into the closed beta would receive a code to redeem the content, which will essentially be the full version of the game.

The first series of add-ons: Automatron, Wasteland Workshop and Far Harbor are coming in 2016 and Automatron is expected to arrive later this month, express.co.uk also noted. Fans wanting to know more about the official release date have spotted some updates in the Steam database, suggesting that the closed-beta could be about to start, the site further added.

Rumors further claim that Fallout 5 now in development, but Bethesda is yet to announce any plans.
