An ambitious fan project that sought out to remake the original Fallout in the style of the more modern Bethesda role-playing games is no longer in development. But while this is a crushing blow to fans looking forward to this dream project, there is still hope on the radiated horizon.
Fallout: Vault 13 was a total conversion mod that took the 1997 isometric role-playing game and retrofit its story, world, and mechanics into Fallout 4’s Creation Engine. The volunteer team behind the game considered it a “full-fledged remake and reimagining” of the original game, retaining its perks, skills and locations and implementing them into a fully 3D open world. But a little over a month after the team released a demo of the mod’s opening section, it has suspended further work on the remake, citing a decision to “prioritize the well-being of project members.”
