It's been a long time coming butthose patient fans who've waited five years for the extensive conversion mod can now finally begin their journey through the derelict streets of the UK's capital. Developed by a group of hobbyists and professionals going by the name Team FOLON, is one of the most ambitious modding projects ever seen for any game and the fact that it exists at all is a testament to the creators' perseverance. Despite plenty of setbacks, launch day is here and the community couldn't be more excited.

Per a joint announcement from Team FOLON and Good Old Games, is now available on GOG for free and simply requires a copy of . The mod itself, which can be found here, is gigantic as it's effectively the size of a full DLC expansion that includes a new area, quests, fully-voiced NPCs, weapons, and an entire story that connects it all together. The voice cast alone is impressive as the mod sports actors like veterans Sylvester McCoy and Colin Baker and 's Neil Newbon.

For the first time, the Fallout series is moving outside the United States via an impressive, sprawling Fallout 4 mod called Fallout London.

Given the fact that is a mod, many curious players may wonder why it's not available on a site like Nexus Mods. The fact of the matter is that it's simply too big to house on popular hosting sites, which is where GOG comes in. The digital marketplace offered to host, working with Team FOLON to develop an individual launcher that should render the mod impervious to any future updates that could render it unplayable.

The decision to partner with GOG is undoubtedly wise given that development on was previously delayed «indefinitely» after Bethesda dropped the latest «next-gen» upgrade for which made the mod incompatible with the current build version. Having a separate launcher will enable Team FOLON to launch without the need to worry about any more surprise patches. Perhaps the best part is that even though is hosted on GOG, it's still playable for anyone
