GOG adds a one-click option to install select mods

GOG has made it much easier to install and run game mods , which has long been a sticking point for fans looking to get into fan-made creations. Certain mods will now offer a simple "install" button, so it'll be ready to play with just a single click. These mods come packed in with the game, so you don't even have to peck around the internet for hours on end. The company promises that each mod has been "pre-packed, pre-tested" and will be "ready to go." There is, however, one major caveat. This feature is only available for a curated selection of mods, so other mods will have to be installed the old-fashioned way. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so. Luckily, this curated list contains some real gems. These include Heroes of Might and Magic III: Horn of the Abyss and DOOM 3: Phobos . Perhaps the most notable of the bunch is last year's Fallout: London . This impressive fan-made update of Fallout 4 brings the action to London, giving players access to a brand-new, massive map. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings.

Amazon renews Fallout months before season 2's premiere

The second season of the Fallout TV series doesn't even have a concrete release date in December yet, but Amazon has already renewed the show for a third season. Amazon has announced that it has greenlit the new season at its annual presentation in New York City. The company said Fallout has had more than 100 million viewers since it dropped on Prime Video in April 2024 and remains one of its top-three most watched titles ever. If you'll recall, the live adaptation was so well-received, Fallout 4 enjoyed a resurgence in sales nearly a decade after its release. Amazon also renewed the series for a second season just a few days after the first season debuted on its streaming service. Based on the video game franchise of the same name, Fallout is set 200 years into the future after an apocalyptic event. In the story, the humans who survived the apocalypse hid in luxury fallout shelters where their descendants remained for hundreds of years. The show follows Lucy as she leaves her shelter after an attack by outsiders to find her father who'd been kidnapped. Along the way, she meets more characters, including a squire from the Brotherhood of Steel and a ghoul bounty hunter. Amazon has yet to reveal season 3's story, which doesn't come as a surprise, seeing as the second season has yet to drop. But season 2 will pick up from where the first one had left off and will take viewers from the Mojave wastelands to New Vegas.

The Elder Scrolls 6 is still on the way - here's what we know so far

Bethesda's sequel to The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim has been in development for years, but several rumours have teased what to expect. It's been 14 years since The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim first appeared in 2011, and since then Bethesda has done everything but release a sequel. Aside from putting Skyrim on every platform under the sun, the studio has released Fallout 4, Fallout 76, several The Elder Scrolls spin-offs, and a new sci-fi IP in 2023's Starfield. Just recently, Bethesda also launched a remastered version of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, presumably as a stop-gap for the next mainline instalment. For many who are still playing Skyrim, and now Oblivion Remastered, The Elder Scrolls 6 is probably one of the most anticipated games of the decade. If you're craving some kind of solace during the long wait for its release, we've assembled everything we know about Bethesda's pivotal sequel. Incredibly, The Elder Scrolls 6 was announced way back on June 10, 2018 at Bethesda's E3 event that year. Nothing was shown apart from a teaser trailer which showed off the logo, and a nondescript landscape. At the time, the game's director, Todd Howard, warned it would be 'a very long way off', and he wasn't lying. Since then, we've heard small updates on the game's progress. The Elder Scrolls 6 entered active production at Bethesda in 2023, following the release of Starfield, and it was playable via early builds in March 2024. As confirmed in a Telegraph interview with Todd Howard, the long-awaited sequel will also run on Bethesda's Creation Engine 2, the same engine used for Starfield (so, yes, that probably means the facial animation will still be bad). Bethesda has not announced a release date for The Elder Scrolls 6. However, according to Microsoft documents in the Federal Trade Commission case from 2023, the sequel is 'expected 2026 or later'. This was immediately put into question when Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer said it would be 'five+ years away' in an interview in the same year – which suggests it wouldn't be out until 2028 at the earliest and, at that point, presumably on the next generation of consoles. Considering we've seen no actual footage of The Elder Scrolls 6, it's safe to say it will probably launch at some point after 2026 – unless Bethesda is planning the biggest surprise shadowdrop of all time. Bethesda hasn't revealed the setting, but rumours point to it either being Hammerfell and/or the neighbouring region of High Rock. Each mainline entry is named after an existing area within the fictional world of Tamriel, which is made up of nine provinces, and these two areas have not received their own mainline game yet. As for the gameplay, several rumours suggest dragons will be involved, along with naval battles, ship customisation, and underwater exploration. A leak from an alleged Bethesda environment designer suggests it will have Egyptian, Mediterranean and north African influences too in an 'explorable archipelago'. While Bethesda hasn't confirmed if The Elder Scrolls 6 will be exclusive to Xbox, following Microsoft's acquisition of the studio, documents released in 2023, as part of the FTC case, suggest that was the original plan. More Trending However, Xbox's strategy has changed quite drastically since then, with many Microsoft-published games now arriving on other platforms either at launch or just after. For example, Doom: The Dark Ages is set to launch across PlayStation 5, Xbox, and PC simultaneously in May 2025, while Indiana Jones And The Great Circle arrived on PlayStation 5 just four months after it launched on Xbox and PC. Bethesda's last major role-playing title, Starfield, has remained an Xbox exclusive for nearly two years though, so there's no clear rule at the moment. While it's unclear if this multi-platform drive could reverse as we approach Microsoft's next console, based on its current strategy it seems unlikely The Elder Scrolls 6 will remain an Xbox exclusive for long – if at all.
