The development of DLC-sized Fallout New Vegas mod Fallout Nuevo Mexico is no longer on hold, with a member of the team telling VG247 that the project is currently “in a good state” as work on the mod has resumed.
Fallout: Nuevo Mexico has been in the works since 2021, and promises a Fallout adventure set in and around the state of New Mexico just five years after the events of Interplay’s original Fallout game, with plenty of classic Fallout mechanics and vibes weaved in. The mod was put on hiatus earlier this year, having ‘gone dark’ back in April, with its social media and YouTube presences being largely set to private. Its creators now say the project is back on the road, but aren’t promising when it’ll come out.
After Nuevo Mexico's head of public relations J.K-Serling posted a brief update to the mod’s Discord server on July 10, stating “project is no longer on hold”, and followed that up with an image of a box with a Vault-Tec logo washed up on a beach (captioned “a saucerful of secrets”) on August 8, we reached out them for more information.
