Jun 24, 2024 10:50 AM

If you are eagerly waiting for Fallout: London, there's a new Fallout 4 mod called "Boon Island" by Tenhats and Shreddah4 to explore in the meantime. This mod is the first part of the "Isles Of New England" series, introducing new islands inspired by real-life locations. Boon Island, based on a lighthouse in Maine with a tragic history, offers a lore-friendly quest, side objectives, environmental storytelling, voiced dialogue, a radio broadcast, and three main locations including a settlement. Players can look forward to uncovering oceanic points of interest that reward thorough exploration. Future updates promise even more expansive islands and quests.

What is the "Boon Island" mod in Fallout 4?

The "Boon Island" mod is part of the "Isles Of New England" series by Tenhats and Shreddah4 for Fallout 4. It features a new island based on Maine's Boon Island, complete with a quest, environmental storytelling, and a settlement area. The mod also includes points of interest underwater, encouraging players to explore thoroughly.

Fallout 4, released by Bethesda Game Studios, has a vibrant modding community that continually adds new content to the game. One of the base game’s expansions, Far Harbor, also features an island environment inspired by real-life locations, making these types of mods particularly popular. Far Harbor itself introduces players to the distant island of the same name, bringing new quests, creatures, and a dense fog that adds a layer of difficulty and mystery.
