Fallout: London project just needs ‘final green light’ from GOG

When last we heard about the ambitious Fallout 4 mod Fallout: London, the team had to delay the project due to Bethesda releasing a big update for the base game. We still don’t know when it’s coming out, but it looks as though we’re just moments away from a release date.

A recent message posted on Team FOLON’s Discord channel – as mentioned on X/Twitter as well – Fallout: London is just waiting for the “final green light” from Good Old Games before the mod is ready to launch. The developer has sent “several builds over to GOG for QA testing,” so it just seems to be a waiting game at the moment.

Once this has been done, the team says it “should be good to go,” but we still don’t know for certain when that will be exactly. Could be days. Could be hours. Honestly, any ideas at this point will be pure speculation.

What is Fallout: London, again?

As with pretty much any Bethesda game, the vanilla experience is often vastly improved with the help of dedicated fans and those in the modding community. Fallout: London is no different, expect it’s a project that has a ton of ambition.

As the name suggests, it brings a post-apocalyptic universe to the English capital city, thanks to a heavily modified version of Fallout 4. It’s being referred to as “DLC-sized,” thanks to its huge scope. It adds in a new story, new factions, new weapons, and new enemies. It’s basically newness all the way down.

As for what you can🐭 expect to find in there, regulars to London should recognize the decayed ruins of places like Islington, Hackney, Westminster, Croydon, Lewisham, the City of London itself, and more. Team 🙈FOLON is not messing about with this project.

It is a bit of a shame it had to be delayed. It wasn’t an easy decision for the modders to make, especially as Fallout: London was scheduled for release on April 23 (St. George’s Day, natch). However, Bethesda then announced the launch date for the long-awaited “next-gen” patch for F4, which rolled out on April 25, meaning th🍸e mod needed more work to take into account the update.

Once it releases, Fallout: London will be available on GOG.com, hence waiting for this last green light. You’ll be able to download it for free so long as you have legitimate copies of the main game, plus all the official DLC. Currently, it’s only coming to PC, with no plans for a console port just yet.
