Fallout: London, a massive mod for Fallout 4, has finally become playable after a long journey. It took over 100 modders and another 100 voice actors nearly five years to create it. Just as they were ready to release, Bethesda introduced a "next-gen upgrade" for Fallout 4, forcing the team to downgrade their game. Despite these challenges, the mod has improved significantly with updates. If you still enjoy Fallout 4, Fallout: London is definitely worth your time.

This mod isn't just a quick fix; it's a full game with its own unique look, vision, and stories. You might notice some signs that it's a mod, but the best way to experience it is to dive in and explore like you would in any Fallout game.

Getting Fallout: London is easiest if you own Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition on GOG. Simply install it and then install Fallout: London for free. The team warns that it will take over your Fallout 4 installation, so be prepared to disable cloud saves and reinstall if you want the base game back.

If you have Fallout 4 on Steam, you'll need to reinstall it, turn off any prior mods, delete your saves, and downgrade it using a custom tool. There's also an optional fix for long loading times. Given that the Fallout 4 GOTY Edition is often on sale on GOG for $10–$15, it might be worth considering if your Steam install seems off.
