The upcoming fan-made Fallout 2 remake (known as Project Arroyo) is apparently making “fast progress,” thanks to the 100-plus developers working on it, according to the project lead, Damion Daponte. If that isn’t good enough news for you, there’s also new concept art and trailers to look at.
Recently, Daponte discussed Project Arroyo’s progress in an interview withThe Gamerand how the team will look to release it once it’s ready. “I’m leaning towards doing what Enderal: Forgotten Stories (a Skyrim mod with a similar aim) did and putting it on Steam,” Daponte says, “It’s just a platform that everyone has. It’s easier to access, easier to update, easier to install. It’s just more efficient.”
However, it’s not just as easy as putting it on Steam. The team working on Project Arroyo needs to ensure that everything’s in order so there are no legal issues. This is becauseProject Arroyo uses Fallout 4’s creation engineto reimagine Fallout 2 in Bethesda’s first-person style.
“We would have to figure out all the specificity with [Steam], making it so you require Fallout 2 and Fallout 4 and all of its DLC to get it and make sure there are no legal issues. But we’ll see—we’re still looking into it. I’m personally leaning towards Steam.”
Daponte also discussed whether this could mean we see Project Arroyo on Steam Deck: “Maybe, we’ll see. I don’t even know if mods work well on Steam Deck, to be honest. I’d have to ask my friends.”
