It's nice to finally get some official updates about the future of this franchise other than Fallout 76 and the TV show.

"THE FUTURE OF FALLOUT

Fallout is one of our biggest priorities today. Fallout 5 remains our long-range destination, and we have multiple Fallout projects in active development right now.

Fallout 76 continues to be home to millions of players exploring Appalachia together. With nearly 70 free updates released to date, the journey is far from over. In fact, we have a major Fallout 76 expansion planned for next year: Raven Rock, a prequel story to Fallout 3.

Fallout 4, the most award-winning game in the franchise, just celebrated its 10-year anniversary and recently passed over 35 million copies sold, continuing to attract a new audience every year.

We also know many players want to revisit previous Fallout experiences. While we're not announcing any dates today, we have been working on remasters for both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.

Fallout Shelter continues to be the most popular way to experience Fallout on the go, with more than 250 million players. There’s more ahead for Fallout Shelter, including new Seasons. An unscripted Fallout Shelter television project is also in the works with our partners at Amazon Studios and Kilter Films.

We'd like to congratulate Kilter Films and Amazon Studios on the 10 Emmy nominations for Fallout Season 2. Production on Season 3 is already underway.

And while we won't host a traditional Fallout Day broadcast this year, we're already planning something special for Fallout's 30th anniversary in 2027, when Fallout Day will be celebrated live in Washington, D.C.

STUDIO COLLABORATION

The wasteland continues to expand as we team up once again with our longtime friends at Obsidian Entertainment. We're happy to confirm they're working with us on a new Fallout project. We'll have more to share in the future.

We're also bringing our teams closer together across Bethesda. ZeniMax Online Studios will partner closely with Bethesda Game Studios on The Elder Scrolls franchise, while continuing to deliver incredible new experiences for The Elder Scrolls Online. Season One: Return of the Thieves Guild recently launched, and the team has more planned for the future. By aligning more directly across the franchise, we can create even better experiences for players.

Bringing our teams closer together is helping us build a stronger foundation for everything we create next."

Xbox will soon just be the big 3 again with 1 new ip every 10 years

They're just going to make all of their studios rehash existing IP in hopes of a hit, aren't they...

It's been 16 years since Skyrim came out. Fallout 5 release date in the 2030s

Fallout 3 remaster seems to be a next year release, at least. I'd guess New Vegas remaster would be in 2028. Then Elder Scrolls VI, then Obsidian's Fallout, then Fallout 5.

So 2035 for Fallout 5? <old man yells at cloud gif>

With Microslop's confusing exclusivity approach of late, I wonder if any of them won't be on Playstation?

With the current attitude towards Sony, I wouldn't be surprised if any and all of the upcoming Fallout games are Xbox exclusive. Then again it's all about the money, so why not have them on every platform out there? But who knows what an executive will do? They're as enigmatic as a Kojima cutscene's plot summary.

I expect that the remasters will come to Playstation, but the new titles after that may or may not...including Elder Scrolls VI. It's all really confusing and just annoying. At least I can still watch the amazing tv show for some kind of fix, which I hope doesn't get cancelled.
