IGN UK Podcast 744: We Don't Want to Set the World on Fire

It's been a fascinating journey for the developers behind indie game studio Evening Star. Much of the crew got their humble starts working together on Sonic the Hedgehog fan games. Their work was so highly regarded that they would eventually be recruited by Sega to develop Sonic Mania, a throwback to the franchise's 2D heyday that would go on to become the highest rated Sonic game in over 25 years.

A new Fallout 4 mod has recently added the Fallout TV show’s “The Ghoul” character to the game. Fallout 4 has several excellent mods, and this new one will probably be a good pick for gamers who loved Amazon Prime’s new TV show.

Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke recently discussed various topics in an interview published by GamesIndustry. The director of Baldur's Gate 3 talked about avoiding overlap with Bethesda's Starfield (Larian's game launched in early August on PC, while Starfield was released in early September) and his respect for the studio.

Nintendo has announced that the next Indie World Showcase will take place tomorrow.

The creators of Fallout 4's ambitious Fallout: London mod have confirmed that the project won't be available on consoles once it's released, news that many fans may have already suspected. The intriguing Fallout 4 mod has recently run into a new set of issues due to a major update coming soon.

Fallout: London, the Fallout 4 mod set in a post-apocalyptic English capital that’s large enough to effectively be its own game, has been hit by an indefinite delay just two weeks from its planned release date. The reason? Fallout 4’s long-in-the-works next-gen update is now due to drop just two days after London’s planned launch date, which its fan devs say will “simply break” the ambitious project.

Fallout London isn't coming to the console, despite mods being fully supported on Xbox platforms. This is due to the file size being far too large, with the game currently sitting at around "30 to 40" gigabytes.
