Fallout: London, PC [Part 7 – Rabbit and Pork]

Okay, here’s a “secret, hidden” bonus seventh instalment of my recent Fallout: London adventure. This one is all about the “Rabbit and Pork” DLC/add-on that was released on 30th September 2025, and grabs of my THIRD Fallout: London playthrough.

Fallout: London, PC [Part 5 – A Cultural Classic]

Initially, when I first saw the launch video for Fallout: London, I was sceptical about how good the voice acting would be in the game. I heard what sounded like a fake cockney accent and cringed… Thankfully, though, that first impression wasn’t correct, and I’m glad to report that the majority of the accents, and the voice acting, in Fallout: London, are absolutely spot-on.

Fallout: London, PC [Part 2 – Avoiding the Bugs]

Before proceeding with the review, I want to bring up the “elephant in the room” with Fallout: London.

Fallout: London, PC [Part 1 – No Swimming in the River Thames]

Created by Team FOLON, with the backing of gog.com, Fallout: London is a free total conversion for Fallout 4, turning the English capital city into a post-apocalyptic hellscape, with various different factions warring against each other.

The entire single-player campaign – the whole game, in fact – has been modified to give you a new storyline to play through, plus loads of other extras that accent the very Britishness of it all. The mod satirises British history, culture, and British manufacturing and consumerism, and has countless unique items and locations to discover while exploring.
