Fallout: London mod will work with Fallout 4 on GOG and Steam but not Epic
The highly anticipated Fallout: London mod for Fallout 4 is nearing its release, and as fans eagerly await its arrival, distributor GOG has clarified some compatibility concerns. According to GOG, Fallout: London will be compatible with versions of Fallout 4 purchased on GOG and Steam, but not those bought on the Epic Games Store. The reason for this is that the Epic Games Store currently lacks support for a key feature required to run the mod.
For those unfamiliar with Fallout: London, it is a mod that allows players to explore a post-apocalyptic open-world version of the UK’s capital city. However, the mod has faced some challenges during development, particularly in relation to compatibility with Fallout 4’s recent next-gen update.
In anticipation of potential complications arising from Bethesda’s next-gen update, the development team, known as Team Folon, made the decision to delay the release of Fallout: London back in April. This decision has proven to be wise, as recent testing revealed that Fallout 4’s next-gen update is not stable enough to support the mod at this time. As a result, the mod will ship with a downgrader that reverts Fallout 4 to an older version, ensuring compatibility with Fallout: London.
While the news of Fallout: London’s compatibility with GOG and Steam versions of Fallout 4 is exciting for many players, those who purchased the game on the Epic Games Store will unfortunately miss out on experiencing the mod for now. It remains unclear when or if the Epic Games Store will introduce the necessary support for the mod to be compatible with their version of Fallout 4.
As the release of Fallout: London draws near, fans eagerly await the opportunity to explore the post-apocalyptic streets of London in the Fallout universe. Despite the setbacks and challenges faced by the development team, their dedication to delivering an immersive and engaging experience remains unwavering.
