Playing Fallout 1 inside Fallout 4 [1]

['Grant St. Clair']

Date: 2026-05-11  

They say the devil never sleeps. The same must be true of game modders. Just last week, I wrote about a truly first-of-its-kind mod allowing you to play The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind — yes, all of Morrowind — in Fallout 4 by inserting it as a functional holotape game.

It was genuinely a staggering achievement, and for the first time ever, you could actually play a good RPG after booting up Fallout 4. Not content to simply rest on his laurels, however, the modder behind the project — the aptly named RPGKING — has already used the framework to insert another classic game. For the first time ever, you can actually play a good Fallout game after booting up Fallout 4 by revisiting the 1997 original.

Just think of it as an intricate Vault-Tec simulation or something.
