Massive Fallout 4 Mod Fallout London Finally Has a Release Date — and It's Today
Form an orderly queue.
The hotly anticipated Fallout 4 mod, Fallout London, finally launches today, July 25, after a series of delays.
Team FOLON lead project manager Dean Carter told Inverse that, "unless nuclear war happens, yes," July 25 is the release date.
Fallout London is perhaps the most high-profile mod ever created, and lets players engage with everything from "stuffy parliamentary aristocrats to a resurrection of the Knights of the Round Table to an uncompromising cult of revolutionaries" in what amounts to an expansion-sized add-on.
It has even secured the likes of Baldur's Gate 3's Neil Newbon for its voice cast, with former UK Speaker of the House John Bercow in the game, too.
The mod was previously due to arrive on April 23, 2024 but actual Fallout developer Bethesda announced a surprise update for Fallout 4, which the mod developer feared would impact its release.
Carter later lamented how Bethesda, which has made clear it's aware of Fallout: London, failed to inform Team FOLON of its plans. "That has, for lack of a better term, sort of screwed us over, somewhat," Carter said.
As a result of Bethesda's Fallout 4 updates, the release of Fallout London is slightly fiddly. If you get the mod on GOG, it's compatible with Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition from both GOG and Steam. But the Steam version of the game is after the next-gen update, making it non-compatible, which means you have to downgrade your game.
Meanwhile, GOG has confirmed that Fallout London won't be playable via Epic Games Store-bought copies of Fallout 4 at launch because the storefront doesn't support update rollbacks.
Bethesda development chief Todd Howard has confirmed Fallout 5 will arrive after the Elder Scrolls 6, which is still years away itself, though massively multiplayer online game Fallout 76 continues to be updated.
