Fallout fans, get ready to explore post-apocalyptic London! The highly-anticipated Fallout 4 mod Fallout London finally has a solid release date. This fan-made mod is being described as a "DLC-sized" addition that will let players freely roam around a nuked-out version of London. This article covers everything you need to know about Fallout 4 London release date, gameplay, and more.
Fallout 4 London Mod Release Date
The ambitious mod is the work of Team FOLON, who has been tirelessly developing Fallout London for over 3 years at this point. Originally, the plan was to release the mod in 2022 or 2023, but the team made the call to push things back a bit to allow for maximum testing and polish time.
- After much deliberation, Team FOLON decided to circle April 23rd, 2024 on the calendar as the official launch day for Fallout London.
- As a happy coincidence, the timing lines up nearly perfectly with the premiere of the upcoming Fallout TV series on Prime Video.
Despite having all the core content ready to go, the team wants to take advantage of the extra time to really fine-tune the testing process and workflow. Pushing back the release will give them the breathing room they need to put out the most refined gameplay experience possible.

Gameplay & Setting
Fallout London takes place within the broader Fallout universe as a direct follow-up to Fallout 4, which you'll need in order to play.
- The story picks up in 2237, coming after the events of the first two Fallout games chronologically speaking.
- Players will get the chance to wander around a post-nuclear war version of London, stumbling upon iconic sights like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and more.
- Of course, the landscape has been dramatically reshaped after decades of mayhem and radioactive fallout.
- As a change of pace from past Fallout titles set in the US, London will allow players to soak in the culture and history of pre-war Europe.
- There are also completely new factions that fill out the lore in exciting ways.
In terms of size and breadth, the team is comparing Fallout London to the DLC expansions from Fallout 4. Fans can expect a similarly massive landmass to Far Harbor and several hours of main storyline gameplay.
