DLC-sized mod "Fallout: London" delayed ahead of Fallout 4's next-gen update
Fallout: London, the upcoming "DLC-sized" mod for Fallout 4, will be delaying its release indefinitely after Bethesda announced Fallout 4's next-gen update will release April 25. Fallout: London, like many Fallout 4 mods, relies on the Fallout 4 Script Extender to work, and the next-gen update is expected to break its functionality. In a new video released over the weekend, project lead Dean Carter says that “the past four years of our work stand to just simply break” with the new update. “It's simply not just the case of blocking the updates and hoping for the best,” added Carter. “If you don't do it properly, it'll also break, and we can't just ask you to drag things back in time.”
Fallout: London was expected to release April 23, meaning it would have only been available for two days before the new update arrived. Unfortunately, because the team that works on the Script Extender mod is not a part of the Fallout: London team, Carter does not know when those fixes will be available and thus cannot provide a new release date for Fallout: London.
Carter also announced that the mod - expected to weigh in at around 30-40GB, and thus too large to be distributed through Nexus Mods - will be released with the assistance of GOG. It will function with the Steam and GOG versions of the game, and possibly the Epic Games Store version as well. More details on exactly how this release and how installation will work will come after all the details are worked out (and the mod is fixed and ready to release, of course).
Ultimately, Carter remained positive about the next-gen update and the mod's situation overall, believing the improvements to the game's engine will benefit Fallout: London.
Fallout: London began development in 2019 as a "small quest mod," but over the years has ballooned into one of the biggest and most ambitious mods in the Fallout community. According to its official website, the map's size is about the same as Far Harbor, one of Bethesda's official DLC expansions. It will include its own original storyline, voice acting, factions, weapons, armour - Carter describes it as being almost like a new game. More details, with extensive update videos and developer diaries, can be found on their YouTube channel.
