Most people will probably tell you thatFallout 3is a better game thanFallout 4and… well, they’re kind of right.
WhileFallout 4is technically bigger and better, with more features and things to do, it’s also a largely unfocused sequel that puts action over story.Fallout 3, meanwhile, hasn’t aged brilliantly, but remains a hauntingly immersive experience that’s well worth seeking out.
While rumours abound that we’re about geta remake ofThe Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, there are still plenty of us hoping to seeFallout 3revisited. Hell, I’d settle for a Nintendo Switch port at this point.

You can currently play a remastered version ofFallout 3onXbox Series Xthanks to the console’s wonderful performance boosting features, but who among us still doesn’t crave a full remake? Certainly, a game likeFallout 3deserves to be brought up to modern standards and made to shine.
Fortunately, fans are hard at work on exactly that.Fallout 4: Capital Wastelandis a mod that aims to recreate the entirety ofFallout 3inFallout 4. The project has been in development for years now, with the team even planning to re-record the original game’s voice lines so as to avoid any legal issues with Bethesda. It is, truly, a staggering endeavour.
WhileCapital Wastelandisn’t yet complete,you can download a number of smaller modsthat introduce various enemies and weapons fromFallout 3. Just recently the team also announceda remake of the original game’sPoint LookoutDLC, and you can install a beta for that now.
