The ‘Fallout Chicago Team’ has released a demo for Fallout: Chicago, a new DLC-sized fan expansion mod for Fallout: New Vegas. This fan expansion will let you set out to solve pre-war mysteries, post-war politics between The Union Mob and Midwest Brotherhood, along with other faction dilemmas.
Going into more details, the demo has the first main story Act of Fallout: Chicago. It also has 3 side quests, a new world place set in Chicago, and two new player homes.
Players will encounter new enemies, and there are 4 new factions. You will also get your hands on dozens of new weapons and armors, and you will find a new companion. On top of that, the demo adds new vendors and a unique Chicago currency system, a bank where you can withdraw your daily earnings, drug dealing, ownable businesses, hireable caravans, and more.
In future versions, the team aims to complete the two remaining story acts. It also plans to add voices to all the generic NPCs, add more interiors, more businesses, and more quests. Two more companions will be added in the future, along with Bounty Hunting and Player Train upgrades.
You can go ahead and download the demo from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a trailer for it. Do note that you will need all of the DLCs for Fallout: New Vegas. You’ll also need the 4GB patcher, which you can download from here.
If you are into Fallout: New Vegas, you can also try these other mods for it. For instance, this mod adds real-time reflections. Another one changes over 1,000 functions to make the game run smoother. Plus, there’s a mod to make the game’s characters even smarter. Another must-have mod is this one, which improves collision accuracy and fixes/optimizes meshes.
In June 2024, we shared a mod that brought some STALKER-like anomalies to the game. Moreover, you can get this mod that adds physically-based vehicles to the game. And if you love quests, there’s a mod that gives you an endless supply of new ones. Let’s also not forget the Visuals Improved Content Expanded Mod. This mod fills the surroundings of Vegas to make it feel more like a real city.
There are also some cool fan-made expansions for New Vegas. Three of them are being made as we speak. These are Fallout: Broken City, Fallout: Nuevo Mexico, and Star Wars Open Worlds. On the other hand, we have these DLC-sized mods that you can grab and play right now. So, you can download Fallout New California, Fallout: Free Cheyenne Demo, and Fallout New Vegas: Out of Bounds.
