Fallout 5 goes to Scotland in impressive fan trailer

One Fallout fan has shared their concept for a game set during post-apocalyptic Scotland, bringing a fresh perspective to the series.

Fallout games have seemingly always been reluctant to venture outside of America when it comes to finding new location open-world locations.

That doesn’t seem like it’s likely to change either, as the upcoming Fallout TV show will be set in Los Angeles, and Fallout 5 will likely pick another US state to call home, when it finally enters development that is.

It makes sense, as Bethesda’s post-apocalyptic survival series exists in an alternate reality where nuclear weapons destroyed the world and most of its inhabitants, starting in the US. But the nuclear armageddon affected the whole planet, meaning it’s always been interesting to think about what other real-world locations are like after the bombs dropped.

Some fans have taken this idea and had a field day, like one unofficial project that takes the series to the UK, specifically London. Now that’s been joined by Scotland thanks to a new Unreal Engine 5 trailer, currently available on YouTube.

The trailer takes us through some of the “charming” Scottish landscapes, which have obviously been decimated by the nuclear winter. The dark greens, greys and blacks all lend themselves quite well to the Fallout art style too, which tends to focus on bleak and muted colours to match its themes.

It was also oddly terrifying to see a burnt-up, crumbling Greggs bakery, which will never sell another sausage roll ever again, truly the end of times.

The trailer’s creator Mojo Swoptops said, "I'm actually from Edinburgh myself and had to consciously avoid just focusing on Edinburgh, as much as I'd have loved to.”

Apparently, the entire thing was actually created with a Far Cry 5 map editor, which can create some truly spectacular builds for those talented enough to master it.

It’s going to be a while before we see another official Fallout game from Bethesda, so fan projects like these are more than enough to keep us interested while we wait.
