Fallout: London’s substantial update that’s been in the works for some time, patch 1.02, finally arrives today, October 18. It brings with it a huge number of fixes and improvements, as previously announced, and arrives around the time the mod is nearing the end of being picked up a million times.
If you haven’t already, Fallout: London is worth checking out for its fun take on post-apocalyptic British culture, as well as the fact that it’s a damn good Fallout game in its own right, if it’s technically a ball game, with the latter being something which the latest patch is intended to significantly aid with.

“The update will be downloaded on GOG at 18:00 GMT+1,” reads the announcement regarding patch 1.02 on the mod’s Discord server. “This update brings over a thousand fixes to the world of Fallout London. From visual improvements to bug and task fixes, you’ll immediately notice a huge difference.”
It looks like the entire changelog is still in the works, but as I mentioned earlier, Team FOLON has previously teased the stuff they’ve prepared for this update, and project manager Dean “Prilladog” Carter wrote in this post “we” brought outside aid to improve performance, face generation data and level of detail, and it took some time to get them up to speed.
As we have already mentioned, the update is scheduled to be available at 18:00 BST, i.e. 13:00 ET, and 10:00 PT today, October 18. The team has prepared a full announcement video for this time, so be sure to check it out below when the time comes, as it will likely discuss the changes and provide specific details to aid answer any questions you may have.
The FOLON team also shared some useful update instructions in their Discord post, which are as follows:
- Update Fallout: London in your GOG library (this will update the launcher)
- Press the Update button in Fallout: London Launcher (follow the instructions here)
- Go to the Fallout 4 Data folder: C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonFallout 4Data – OR – C:GOGFallout 4 GOTYData
The team also reported how well the mod is doing in terms of being able to download it for free on GOG, writing that it’s “VERY close to being used over 1,000,000 times,” which is cold.
“We are incredibly grateful for the enormous support and positive evaluation the project has received,” it concluded. “Your feedback plays a key role in our ongoing efforts to troubleshoot and fix bugs, and we will continue to refine Fallout: London until it is perfect.”
