Fallout: London Hits Incredible Player Count Milestone
Key Takeaways
- The Fallout: London mod reached a milestone of 1 million downloads, making it one of the most popular ever released.
- The mod, with DLC-sized gameplay and notable voice actors, was released on GOG.
- The continued support for Fallout: London includes regular updates fixing bugs and addressing major issues with quests.
The popular Fallout 4 mod Fallout: London was downloaded by over a million gamers, according to GOG. This number puts Fallout: London among the most popular video game mods ever released – an impressive achievement for Team FOLON, the non-profit group that led the project.
Fallout: London was originally revealed in 2021 and finally released in July 2024. The project was one of the most ambitious Fallout mods ever created, as it included a DLC-sized post-apocalyptic London with a complete main storyline and several side quests. Fallout: London even had the help of prominent voice actors such as Neil Newbon, Sylvester McCoy, Colin Baker, and the real-life former Speaker of the House John Bercow. However, the mod was so big that it could not be hosted on Nexus Mods, and so Team FOLON eventually released Fallout: London on GOG.

Fallout: London comes packed with charming little references and easter eggs. Here’s which ones players may not have spotted.
Now, as part of Fallout Day, GOG has revealed that Fallout: London was downloaded by over a million people. Fallout: London marked the first time GOG hosted a popular video game mod, and its success certainly puts it among the most popular fan-made projects ever released. On Discord, Team FOLON also thanked fans for their support and promised to continue fixing bugs and improving the open-world RPG.
Fallout: London Reaches Over 1 Million Downloads
Fallout: London is still receiving regular updates. Just last week, the mod gained a massive new update, which fixed over 1,000 bugs, addressed major issues with quests, tweaked some gameplay elements, and corrected random crashes.
The continued support gained by Fallout: London is great news for gamers who were unable to play it during the release. Multiple players ran into game-breaking bugs with Fallout: London soon after the game launched. The most common issues were constant crashes that essentially made the game impossible to play. While some gamers quickly found workarounds for these problems, it’s always good to see official fixes implemented.
While 2024 may mark an exciting time for Fallout: London fans, the same can’t be said for all Fallout modding projects. Earlier this week, Fallout: Vault 13 suspended its development. Fallout: Vault 13 aimed to recreate Fallout 1 in the Fallout 4 engine, and it was being closely followed by fans of the franchise, but the developers behind the project suspended the project due to burnout and difficulty in recruiting people. Hopefully, other modders could continue the project in the future, as the developers confirmed that a full build of the mod would be released soon for anyone who wants to take the work forward.
