Summary
After what seems like a lifetime in development, at least forFalloutfans, Fallout: London is out now.
The expansion-game-sized mod was approved for launch by GOG last week, and now Team FOLON has decided to stealthily release the game. Well, stealthily, provided you’re not in the game’s officialDiscord server, in which the devsshared a videotitled “Fallout: London - I Just Can’t Wait (For Tomorrow)”.
The Big Day Is Finally Here
After a slightly tumultuous five-year development period, which recently saw the announcement that the gamewouldn’t work through the Epic Games Store, Fallout: London is finally here.
The title, which has been released onGOG, features a brand-new story, a faithful recreation of London, new weapons and factions, and a bunch of fully voiced characters, including the formerSpeaker of the House of CommonsandAstarion voice actor Neil Newbon.
GOG and Fallout: London were a match made in heaven. The Fallout: London project was too large to be housed on standard modding sites, meaning distribution issues could have arisen. GOG stepped in to host the game, helping to create a custom launcher and providing easy installation in the process.
Fallout: London will be compatible with an early version (1.10.163.0) of the Fallout 4: Game of the Year edition due tostability issues with the next-gen update. Thankfully, using GOG’s launcher, players will be able to play the game instantly by simply clicking the “Play” button in GOG Galaxy.
Playing the game onSteamwill be a little more tricky. Players will need to downgrade their copy ofFallout 4to the pre-next-gen update version, and while this is a more involved process, Team FOLON will sharefull details on how to do it through its website.
