After the brilliant Fallout London brought Bethesda’s decade-old Fallout 4 back into the limelight, a group of talented New Vegas fans have revealed their new project—Fallout: Neuvo Mexico. Set in New Mexico, the new game-sized mod for Obsidian’s 2011 spin-off is one of the most exciting projects in years.
Bring on Fallout: Neuvo Mexico
Still “largely in development”, Fallout: Neuvo Mexico was originally revealed last year with a short gameplay trailer. However, after an additional year of development, the team has returned with a spectacular new look at the upcoming New Vegas mod.
While not as beautiful as Fallout: London, this new mod is another game-sized modification that adds a brand-new, unexplored region of the world that fans have never explored before. With English and Spanish voice acting, a full map to explore, new factions and quests, the fan-made total conversion is incredibly exciting.
“Mexico City is the largest city in North America and serves as the biggest hub in Fallout: Nuevo México,” read’s the mod’s official synopsis. “While still largely under development, we are thrilled to finally reveal this iconic wasteland. Once the vibrant heart of a massive metropolis, Mexico City now lies in ruin, a battleground for factions struggling for dominance and survival. From the decaying colonia of Chapultepec to the submerged canals of Xochimilco, the city is a haunting blend of beauty and brutality.”
Dark, gritty, and oh-so-pretty
The RPG’s new mod looks like an amazing take on what Fallout in New Mexico could look like. Just like the apocalyptic take on London, Neuvo Mexico goes all-in on the Mexican aesthetic with its own terminal designs, clothing, and even face paint.
The team behind the project aims to deliver a brutal, “dark, factional reality” that highlights “the dangers of a devastated world” and it looks amazing. While obviously not an official Bethesda project, or even affiliated with the studio, it looks pretty stunning for a game running on a 13-year-old engine that’s already held together with tape and sticks.
While there’s currently no release date for Fallout: Neuvo Mexico, it definitely looks like a project to keep waiting for. With no official Fallout 5 on the horizon, although its likely coming after Elder Scrolls 6 finally releases, fans will have to make do with new Fallout 76 content and amazing fan mods like this.
