If you enjoy downloading the odd Fallout mod from time to time, I’m almost certain that you’ll have heard about the upcoming Fallout: The Odyssey.
This total conversion mod is in the works for Fallout: New Vegas. It’s set to take us to Alaska during the year 2297 where the reformed Enclave is making plans for "what might be the most ambitious event in human history since the great war". Players will assume the role of a lone wanderer who becomes embroiled in the Enclave’s last stand against the Brotherhood of Steel. Promising, right? It sounds as if it’s set to be a hefty mod, introducing a new locale, storyline, and more. While it remains in development, we do have one small treat to dive into in the meantime.
Amazon’s Fallout adaptation is due to premiere on 12 April.
YouTube channel Webb Productions Entertainment has launched a short film, made using Unreal Engine 5, in support of the mod to give prospective players an idea of what to expect - and the end result is positively fantastic. Do note though, while the short film has been made using Unreal Engine 5, The Odyssey mod won’t as, to state the obvious, it’s a conversion mod of Fallout: New Vegas and therefore uses, you guessed it, Fallout: New Vegas as a base. Take a look at the short film below.
“I am so glad I found your channel. I cannot wait to see this come to fruition. I love your mods and am extremely excited to see [and] play The Odyssey,” wrote one viewer, while another added, “It looks more professional than modern game trailers. I love it and I hope we can see this masterpiece complete.”

With Bethesda’s developers still hard at work supporting Starfield and its upcoming Shattered Space expansion, it’s going to be quite some time before they’re ready to switch the full efforts of their focus to The Elder Scrolls VI - let alone Fallout 5. As such, mods are more important than ever to maintain player interest, and The Odyssey looks to be a banger of one.
