When you consider it’s a completely free mod rather than an official game, Fallout London is extremely impressive. It’s a massive RPG worthy of the Fallout moniker, and the way it uses its titular city to shake up the series’ US-centric formula is extremely effective and refreshingly novel. The twists and turns of the main story are compelling, aside from when you’re sent off on unrelated busywork, and going off the beaten path to adventure with companions is as fun here as it is in any modern open-world Bethesda game. However, installing this mod is a technical undertaking you need to be prepared for, and even when you’re successful it comes with more than its fair share of bugs and crashes. But of course, it’s all worth it: If you have the mettle to overcome those challenges – and the occasional obtuse mission design – there is a lot of fun to be had in Ol’ Blighty.
