Fallout: Project Arroyo coming to Steam, and it looks incredible

There’s no denying that the Fallout series is one of the most popular video properties of all time but despite this, many fans may have missed the very early games given that they were originally released nearly three decades ago.

It’s fair to say that theFalloutseries began its upward trajectory with the release of Fallout 3 in 2008, now under theBethesdaumbrella. Before that, the two original games in the series were released in 1997 and 1998, respectively, under the Interplay Entertainment umbrella.

Project Arroyo has over 100 dedicated volunteers working to bring the remake to life from developers, artists, voice actors, soundtrack composers and more. However, the undertaking of the soundtrack is quite the task as it has to be 100% original material to avoid being hit with a copyright strike.

Duringan interview withTheGamer, project lead on theFallout 2remake, Damien Daponte said: “I’m leaning towards doing whatEnderal: Forgotten Storiesdid and putting it on Steam.” He continued: “It’s just a platform that everyone has. It’s easier to access, easier to update, and easier to install. It’s just more efficient.”

“We would have to figure out all the specificities with that, making it so you requireFallout 2andFallout 4and all of its DLC to get it and to make sure there are no legal issues. But we’ll see - we’re still looking into it. I’m personally leaning towards Steam.”

At the time of writing, theFallout 2remake doesn’t have a release date but if it does launch on Steam as well as platforms where mods are available, it should mean that this could be one of the most accessibleFallout 4mods ever.
