Less than two weeks out from massive Xbox layoffs that will put 3,200 people out of work, Bethesda Softworks has laid out its plans for the future, including confirmation of a new Fallout game from Obsidian and that remasters of both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas are happening.
The full message covers pretty much everything Bethesda does, including a confirmation that Starfield, despite a middling reception and flagging player numbers, will continue to receive updates. There’s also a nod to “more planned for the future” for The Elder Scrolls Online, even though the game and the studio making it both look pretty rocky right now.
But Fallout is the focus, and there is a lot going on. “Fallout is one of our biggest priorities today,” Bethesda wrote. “Fallout 5 remains our long-range destination, and we have multiple Fallout projects in active development right now.”
Included among those projects is a Fallout 76 expansion scheduled for 2027 called Raven Rock, which will serve as a prequel to Fallout 3, and as mentioned, the Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters—no dates were revealed, but simple confirmation that they’re both in development is long overdue.
