Thanks to the next-gen update of Fallout 4 that rolled out in April, the long-awaited and unofficial expansion Fallout: London had to delay release. This was a sad time for those who were eagerly awaiting the DLC-sized mod, but it looks like good news is on the way.
In a recent post on Twitter/X, the team behind Fallout: London has said that they “have a new date.” That doesn’t really clue us in much, but it at least lets us know that a launch day is likely on the horizon.
Diving a little deeper, a message on the mod’s Discord channel (as spotted by VG247) says the developer just has “one more I to dot and one last T to cross,” before it’s due for release. The message then goes on to say that “we are looking at a matter of days/weeks” and that fans should “stay tuned.”
Far out
Fallout aficionados have no doubt been paying close attention to this ambitious fan-made project, which tells the tale of a post-apocalyptic wasteland from the perspective of the UK capital city. We’ve had plenty of teasers about the mod, which promises new factions, weapons, as well as a slew of quests.
Fallout: London had already been pushed back before, originally set to come out at the end of 2023. However, the team ultimately decided to delay release at that point so as not to clash with Starfield. With the launch of the Fallout 4 next-gen upgrade, it seems Bethesda has been getting in the way of the mod on more than one occasion, albeit maybe not intentionally.
At any rate, it looks as though the long, hard road is finally coming to an end. London sounds like it’s going to be a huge addition to F4, and the extra delay will hopefully be worth it in the end. I’m calling it right now: I think it’s going to be phenomenal.
