Fallout London, the ambitious total conversion mod for Fallout 4, is finally nearing its long-awaited release. After facing delays due to both Starfield’s launch and the next-gen update for Fallout 4, the wait seems to be nearing its end.
Fans eagerly anticipating their post-apocalyptic London adventure received a positive update from the development team this week. The news? Multiple builds of Fallout London have been submitted to GOG, the digital distribution platform partnering with the modders for release.
From Delay to Greenlight: A Journey Through Testing
The road to launch hasn’t been smooth sailing for Fallout London. Initially planned for a 2023 release, the team opted for a delay due to the impending arrival of Bethesda’s spacefaring RPG, Starfield. With Starfield out of the picture, April 2024 became the new target.
However, another hurdle emerged – the next-gen update for Fallout 4. This update, while exciting for some, caused compatibility issues with many mods, including core functionalities crucial for Fallout London.
The latest update from the development team assures fans that the wait is nearly over. GOG is currently putting the submitted builds through rigorous Quality Assurance (QA) testing. Once these builds are verified and approved, the official launch will take place.
Transparency and Teamwork: Building Trust with the Community
The development team acknowledges the community’s eagerness and the recent period of relative silence. They’ve emphasized their commitment to transparency, stating, “There has been a lot of speculation regarding our upcoming release, and we wanted to open up and clear the air for our core supporters.”
This update serves as a reassurance that the team is diligently working behind the scenes. The multiple build submissions and GOG’s involvement in QA testing signify a meticulous final stage before launch. While the wait might feel long, these efforts ensure a polished and functional experience for players on launch day.
A Massive Post-Apocalyptic London Awaits: Fallout London
The wait will surely be worth it. Fallout London promises a sprawling post-apocalyptic wasteland experience set in the heart of London. The game offers a vast playable area, comparable to the entirety of Fallout 4’s base game combined with the Far Harbor DLC, providing a massive world to traverse.
Players can immerse themselves in a web of storylines with 53 main quests, 35 side quests, 25 faction-specific quests, 64 miscellaneous quests, and 16 branching gang quests.
Additionally, Fallout London features unforgettable companions, including a diverse cast of seven, five of whom are fully voiced with unique storylines and evolving relationships. The world is brought to life with over 90,000 lines of recorded dialogue, creating an immersive post-apocalyptic London.
