Is it a mean joke or just a teaser for the much-anticipated release of Fallout London? That's the question on everyone's mind after a mysterious image was posted on the Fallout London Patreon page. Fans are now in a frenzy trying to decipher the image, hoping that it holds the key to the long-awaited release date.
While Bethesda has confirmed that Fallout 5 is in the works, it won't be released until after the launch of a Skyrim sequel, according to recent reports. That means fans of the post-apocalyptic series will have to wait a few more years before they can dive into the next chapter of the story. But fear not, as there are plenty of fan-made mods to fill the void. Some, like the recently released Fallout 2 mod Fallout Yesterday - Van Buren, are already available, while others, such as the Fallout London fan project, are on the verge of launching.
Last week, the lead developer of Fallout London spoke to GameCentral and revealed some exciting details about the upcoming Fallout 4 mod. However, one thing they couldn't share was the release date. To add to the mystery, the team has now posted a cryptic image to their Patreon backers, causing fans to speculate about the exact date of the mod's release.
Despite receiving the green light from publisher GOG just last week, the Fallout London team is still putting the final touches on the mod before releasing it to the public. While the launch seems imminent, there is still no official release date, leaving fans to speculate and theorize.
The speculation only intensified when the Fallout London team posted an image of an in-game character holding up five fingers. The post didn't come with any additional message, but fans were quick to jump to conclusions. "5th of August?" one Reddit user suggested, while another pointed out that it could mean five days from now, which would be this Friday. Some fans are even wondering if it means new information will be revealed at 5 o'clock, but there doesn't seem to be a clear consensus among them.
One fan has an interesting theory, connecting the number five to the recent five-minute slow mode on the Fallout London Discord server. This means that members can only send one message every five minutes. It was lead developer Dean Carter who informed fans about this delay, explaining that they are expecting a surge in members once the mod is released.
In the midst of all this speculation and anticipation, there are also some jokes being thrown around in the Reddit thread, poking fun at how long it's taking for the mod to be released.
Originally planned for an April 23 launch, Fallout London hit a roadblock when Bethesda released a next-gen update for Fallout 4, rendering the mod unplayable. The team had to delay the launch and eventually decided to add a downgrader to remove the next-gen update and ensure compatibility with the mod.
It's understandable that fans are getting impatient, considering that Fallout London has been in development since 2019. But in the meantime, fans can get a taste of what to expect by listening to former UK Speaker of the House John Bercow's voice in the mod once it finally releases.
