One reason Fallout 76 might be laggy on PS4 is due to server issues on Bethesda's end. When too many players jump on at once, it can slow things down for everyone. Also, your own internet speed plays a big role. If it's not up to snuff, you'll likely experience lag.

Another angle is the PS4's hardware limitations. Fallout 76 is a beast of a game with a vast open world, which can strain the older PS4 models especially. Try closing other applications running in the background or consider upgrading to a PS4 Pro or even a PS5 for better performance.

Sometimes the lag is just a temporary glitch after an update. Bethesda rolls out patches that can cause temporary issues, but they usually get fixed quickly. Make sure your game is up to date with the latest patch!

I've played Fallout 76 on PS4 and honestly, never had major issues. It might also come down to where you're playing from. Players further from the game servers can experience more lag.
