Fallout: New Vegas patch submitted

Bethesda and Obsidian have revealed that a long-awaited patch for Fallout: New Vegas has been completed and submitted for distribution over Xbox LIVE, PlayStation Network and Steam.

"We've wrapped up work on the Fallout: New Vegas patch and submitted it," reads the Tweet from the official Fallout Twitter account. "We'll let you know when it's up on PS3, 360 and Steam."

However, it may still be some time before the patch is approved for distribution. From here, the patch will undergo a rigorous quality-assurance process at each of the respective platform holders before it's given the all-clear and made available for download.

Fallout: New Vegas has received generally very positive reviews despite the fact that it launched with a considerable number of bugs that are yet to be rectified
