Can You Play Fallout: London on the Steam Deck?
Hey, you wanna play Fallout: London on your awesome Steam Deck? It's totally doable, but since it's a PC mod, you'll need to follow a few steps to get things going.
Is Fallout: London Compatible With Steam Deck?
- The good news is, Fallout 4, the game Fallout: London runs on, is totally verified for the Steam Deck! But since it's a mod, you gotta get your hands dirty with some installation!
- Don't worry, the community on the Fallout: London Discord has made this a little easier than a whole dungeon crawl, but you have to be a bit savvy to get it up and running!
How To Set Up Fallout: London on Your Steam Deck
The big thing is you've got to be in Desktop mode. Then:
- Grab your copy of Fallout: London (from GOG). It works with both GOG and Steam, but if you have the Epic Games Store, well, it's not there yet. Sorry, folks!
- Downgrade: Fallout 4 needs to be an older version to run Fallout: London. If you've got the GOG version, the launcher should do it for you. If it's Steam, manually downgrade it to version 1.10.163.0.
- Add It On: You gotta grab these tools - Fallout 4 Mod Manager, Nexus Mod Manager, and 7-Zip. These let you unzip the mod and make sure everything works.
- Time For Setup: It's time to install. Use either Fallout 4 Mod Manager or Nexus Mod Manager. Drag the mod in, and make sure you check its box so it gets enabled!
- That's it - now you can close your Steam Deck's Desktop Mode, get into Gaming Mode and enjoy Fallout: London like any other game. That's how you get this sweet mod to play!
So there you go! Even if Bethesda doesn't release an official version of Fallout: London, you can bring the post-apocalyptic UK adventure to the Steam Deck! Enjoy those mods and those London stories!
