Fallout London is a DLC-sized Fallout 4 mod made by dedicated fans that is designed to bring the long-running franchise to the other side of the Atlantic. It’s been in the works for quite a while, and now the mod is finally here.
The hype has swept across the entire Fallout fandom, leading many who play on Xbox or PlayStation to wonder if it will make it to their preferred consoles.
Will Fallout London be playable on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S?
No, Fallout London will not be playable on Xbox or PlayStation in the forseeable future. The expansive fan-made mod is only slated to release on PC right now.
While it would be great to see this London expansion come to console, a release on platforms like the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S is not overly feasible due to various factors including the mod’s sheer size and reliance on Script Extender.
While the full mod on consoles is out of the question, you can potentially have several bits and pieces available as standalone releases. For example, you can already have the likes of Chinese Pistol and Lewis Gun from the Fallout London mod on your Xbox via Bethesda.net.
You can expect more of these along the way, as the Fallout London team has kept open permissions for mod authors to port standalone assets. The FAQ section of the mod’s official website mentions, “Specific standalone items may be released separately. The community has the permission to convert said standalone items to other platforms.”
If you play on PS5 though, things are more grim; Sony doesn’t allow custom assets in mods. So, only mods that rely on vanilla assets are greenlit on the PlayStation version.
If you want to play Fallout London, there’s really only one really correct answer though: You’re simply going to have to download and play it on PC.
