In 2022, we shared a teaser trailer for what appeared to be a remake of the classic Fallout games in GZDoom. And now, three years later, its creator has shared a proper gameplay trailer. So, let’s take a look at it.
Fallout: Bakersfield is a total conversion mod for GZDoom. This mod basically re-imagines the classic Fallout games as an FPS/RPG hybrid. This is one of the best retro remakes, and I seriously hope Bethesda will not shut it down.
What really caught my attention in this gameplay trailer was the animations. Everything looks so smooth and polished. I mean, look at those knife attacks at 2:31. The mod is also full of gore. Players will be able to dismember their enemies. You will also be able to disarm them. Seriously, watch the trailer. Everything looks so good.
According to the trailer, the mod is 60% complete. Right now, Saur X aims to release Fallout: Bakersfield sometime in 2027. So, it will take a while until we get our hands on it. However, from what we can see here, it will be worth the wait.
Last month, we also informed you about an amazing remake of Heretic in GZDoom. That remake has a demo that you can download and play. So, make sure to check it out.
Speaking of Doom, here are some other cool mods for it. Voxel Doom is a mod that I highly recommend. As its title suggests, it replaces all sprites with voxels. Then we have Aliens Eradication TC which is a must-have mod for all our Aliens fans. A few days ago, we also shared a “Doom 3” Mod for Doom 2. That mod aimed to continue the story of Doom 2, and featured 2 whole chapters, 36 new tracks and 20+ hours of gameplay.
Brutal Doom: Black Edition is a mod that attempts to bring the art style of id Software’s Doom 3 to the classic Doom games. There’s also a cool Doom 64-inspired episode mod that you can download. Oh, and speaking of Doom 64. Doom 64: Unseen Evil is a mod that remakes Doom 1 & Doom 2 to look like Doom 64. Then we have Bloom, a crossover between Blood and Doom. Plus, there is a cool mod, inspired by Doom: The Dark Ages.
Perhaps the best mods for the classic Doom games are the Path Tracing Mods. Both Doom 1 and Doom 2 received such mods. Thus, I highly recommend downloading them. I’ve replayed both of them recently, and they still look incredible with Path Tracing. This will be one of your best Path Tracing experiences, so don’t sleep on it.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Wow, I cant wait for this.
It's fake
Looks scripted and fake, too good to be true.
the old art style looked so much better than what bethesda did to the franchise.
Bethesda should licence this from the developer. IF this is more than just a few scenes that work.
That looks pretty good. Hopefully it's more than just a proof of concept.
Yeah, this looks to good to be true.
It isn't check the guys other artworks.
He's making the art and his brother is programming it on GZDoom.
looks awesome
This looks really good!
Bethesda pioneered modding, why would they shut it down. The only mods that you can't make are mods that use assets from other games of theirs and you have to have original voice acting.
I always thought that was odd, I can't use Oblivion assets in Skyrim but I can use Witcher 3 assets in Skyrim.
"Bethesda pioneered modding"
lmao
Yeah this is impressive! better than the dogsht looking Fallout games. This could be a game on it's own!
I never even played Fallout 4 (I stopped after New Vegas), but I'll play this!
Looks… A bit too good while being a very narrowly focused "vertical slice" kinda trailer, where the game has nothing else working other than what they showed here…
My b*llsh*tometer is lighting up the orange level alert…
2022… Hopefully they finish it before 2030.
As much as I want this to be real. This screams fake. Especially because he's taking donations.
Not bad, but those 10 fps animations looks horrendously bad.
The view model looks like it was taken from green screen, and then put on the game world.
Don't be surprised if this pixelated mess will need a RTX card.
This trailer is as believable as ILL's gameplay.
Pretty much everything this guy has worked on has come out.
People claiming it's fake don't know any better.
