The next patch was getting pretty huge, so Team Folon decided to go all-in.

Fallout: London, the Fallout 4 mega-mod that brings the post-nuclear experience to the British Isles, is getting DLC of its own. Developer Team Folon said the next patch for the mod has gotten a little out of hand, so the team has decided to roll with something more ambitious.

"What started as a simple hotfix has grown into something much bigger," the studio said on the Fallout: London Discord. "Given the scope of this update, we're aware it may make changes that impact save files, so rather than risking breaking things for a small update, we're looking to roll this into a part of our very first DLC!"

Team Folon said the Fallout: London DLC "will feature both new and previously cut content that we're working hard to restore." No details have been revealed at this point, but perhaps King Charles will finally make his debut as a ghoulified monarch: He and his mum were both planned for the game, but developers opted to remove them out of respect following Queen Elizabeth's death in 2022. As a loyal citizen of the Empire—sorry, the Commonwealth—I'd say it was the right move, but it's been a couple years now and I think that's long enough.

A release target for the next Fallout: London patch and DLC wasn't provided, but you can check out the planned fixes and changes—but nothing about the new content, sorry—through the real-time changelog.
