A New Era for Fallout Fans
The highly anticipated mod “Fallout London” has finally arrived, ushering in a new era for Fallout fans. This massive mod transforms Fallout 4 into a post-apocalyptic version of London, offering players an entirely new setting to explore. Available now on GOG, Fallout London promises an expansion-sized adventure with unique characters, locations, and storylines that will captivate both veteran players and newcomers to the series.
What is Fallout London?
Fallout London is an ambitious project by Team FOLON that shifts the familiar Fallout wasteland to the streets of a ruined London. From “uncompromising revolutionaries” to “the Knights resurrection” and “stuffy aristocrats,” this mod is packed with new content that immerses players in a distinctly British apocalypse.
Notable voice actors like Neil Newbon from Baldur’s Gate 3 and former UK Speaker of the House John Bercow have lent their talents to bring this world to life, adding depth and authenticity to the experience.
Compatibility and Installation of Fallout London
To enjoy Fallout London, players must own Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition and all its DLC packs.
The mod is compatible with the pre-patched version (1.10.163.0) of Fallout 4. While the GOG version of the game maintains this pre-patched state for modding compatibility, the Steam version has been updated, requiring players to downgrade their game before installing the mod.
This process is simplified on GOG thanks to a dedicated launcher developed in collaboration with Team FOLON, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free installation process for those using the GOG platform.
Challenges with Steam
For those using Steam, installing Fallout London poses a more complex challenge due to the next-gen update.
To play the mod, Steam users need to downgrade their game to the pre-patched version using Team FOLON‘s downgrader tool, available from Nexus Mods. This involves navigating the Steam console, downloading older versions of the game files, and then installing the mod via GOG Galaxy.
While this process may seem daunting, the end result is well worth the effort for Fallout fans eager to explore the British wasteland.
Experience the British Wasteland
Despite the technical hurdles, Fallout London is a must-try for anyone who loves the Fallout series.
The mod not only introduces a new setting but also expands on the Fallout lore with rich storytelling and detailed world-building.
Players can explore iconic London landmarks reimagined in a dystopian future, encounter diverse factions, and unravel new mysteries that will keep them engaged for hours on end.
The attention to detail and the passion of the modding community are evident in every aspect of Fallout London, making it a true labor of love.
Looking Ahead
While Fallout London breathes new life into Fallout 4, fans are also eagerly awaiting future projects from Bethesda.
Development chief Todd Howard has confirmed that Fallout 5 will follow The Elder Scrolls 6, though both are still years away.
Meanwhile, Fallout 76 continues to receive updates, keeping the Fallout community engaged and excited for what the future holds for the franchise.
Fallout London offers a fresh, expansive experience that revitalizes Fallout 4 and provides a glimpse into the potential of future mods.
Whether you’re a veteran player or new to the series, Fallout London is a must-try. Embark on a journey through the British wasteland, and as they say in London, “Mind the gap!” as you explore the ruins of a once-great city and uncover its secrets.
