The "Nuka World" downloadable content or DLC will be the final post-launch content for "Fallout 4" so fans can expect it to be a wall-to-wall of an expansion pack.

Priced at $19.99, the highly anticipated "Fallout 4" DLC will be released in August. It takes place in an amusement park called Nuka World, a place of fun and entertainment reduced into a lawless city by Raiders.

These Raiders have set for themselves a couple of specific and evil goals – "conquer settlements, bending the Commonwealth to your will."

"Fallout 4" gamers play the role of these Raiders, who come in "lethal gangs" as they explore the various regions of the Nuka World, which is comprised of an open wasteland and four unique park zones.

These zones include the Safari Adventure, Dry Rock Gulch, Kiddie Kingdom and the Galactic Zone, which present unique challenges to "Fallout 4" players.

The trailer for the "Fallout 4" "Nuka World" DLC, as pointed out by a Reddit fan, glimpsed what appears to be a snowy mountain, which is expected to be part of one of those park zones.

Bethesda Softworks teases that the "Nuka World" DLC will introduce a whole host of new quests, Raiders as well as weapons and creatures in "Fallout 4." The trailer also teased additional armor.

The "Fallout 4" "Nuka World" DLC sounds like a perfect way to end post-launch plans for the beloved game. However, new content won't end there.

PlayStation 4 players should be getting the "Fallout 4" mods by the end of this month. The Creation Kit was already launched to the Xbox One, which yielded an incredible amount of new content for the game.

Although the "Fallout 4" "Nuka World" DLC won't be out until August, players will get their hands on it early via a beta testing. A schedule for this is yet to be announced.
