Whereas we wait, although, there’s no higher place to look than the Fallout New Vegas modding group. After initially being placed on maintain earlier this yr the expansive, DLC-sized complete conversion mod Fallout: Nuevo Mexico is again, and it has a packed trailer to indicate for it.
When you’ve been studying my phrases for a few years, you’ll know I really like a very good Fallout New Vegas mod. Devoted gamers are overhauling the motion and taking pictures, making their very own quests, and even going to warfare over a hat.

I wouldn’t get too excited simply but, nonetheless. The mod crew provides that Nuevo Mexico is “nonetheless a great distance from completion,” with the extent of element throughout the hubs proven within the trailer “very a lot a piece in progress.” In brief: Nuevo Mexico is unfinished. Meaning there’s no launch date but both.
