Fallout: London's project lead has confirmed that the massive mod will need to downgrade your copy of Fallout 4 to a version from before the next-gen updates that dropped earlier this year in order for you to be able to play it. The reason cited is that the next-gen version of Bethesda's RPG "isn't stable enough".

If you're out of the loop, Fallout: London's a full conversion mod for Fallout 4 that's set to let us explore a post-apocalytic version of the English capital, complete with fresh factions and quests. After Fallout 4's next-gen update forced its creators to abandon their planned release date of April 23, the mod has been left in what's felt like a bit of a purgatory.

One detail mentioned in this statement is that the mod not only has its own installer, but also a downgrader, and project lead Dean 'Prilladog' Carter has now revealed that the latter certainly isn't just being chucked in there as a cool optional inclusion, as you might have assumed.
