This Stunning Mod Brings Fallout's Necropolis to Doom: 'Never Seen a Fan Project Get So Close to the OG Vibe'
KERN COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 20 – Fan developer Alexander Berezin's mod is 60% complete and reimagines Fallout 1's Necropolis as a first-person shooter using the flexible GZDoom engine.
- Developer Alexander 'Red888guns' Berezin released a new four-minute trailer for Fallout: Bakersfield, a fan-made FPS mod recreating Fallout 1's Necropolis using GZDoom engine.
- The project was initially teased in September 2022 but saw little communication since, with the developers hinting at a possible 2027 release without firm commitment and some concerns about legal challenges.
- Berezin reports about 60% completion overall, including 80% of scenery, 50% of weapons and UI, and 30% of creatures, while the trailer highlights the boss fight with super mutant Harry in Necropolis.
- Fans lauded the trailer for its impressive art style and authentic capture of the classic Fallout atmosphere, especially remarkable given that the mod was primarily developed by just two individuals.
- Fallout: Bakersfield's development shows sustained fan passion amid Bethesda’s lack of a new Fallout game post the April 2024 hit Prime Video series, suggesting ongoing community engagement ahead of future official titles.
