Todd Howard, director and executive producer at Bethesda Game Studios, has teased the next one Fallout game, confirming that it will be affected by Amazon’s Fallout TV series.
Speaking to BBC Newsbeat amid the release of Fallout Season 2, Howard, who has served as a director on Fallout 3 and Fallout 4and Oblivion and Skyrimaffected what we can expect from Fallout 5.
“In short, yes,” Howard replied when asked if the events of Amazon’s live-action series would affect the game. “Fallout 5 will exist in a world where the stories and events of the show happened or are happening. We take that into account.”
While Howard didn’t dive into the heavy details, we do know that the Fallout TV show takes place after the current Fallout games, meaning that whatever Lucy Maclean, The Ghoul, and Maximus are up to in Season 2 and beyond will have a ripple effect on the next entry in the role-playing game (RPG) series.
For now there is no Fallout 5 release window, but we know it’s being worked on at Bethesda and will likely arrive after the studio’s next game, The Elder Scrolls 6.
But the next one Elder scrolls the game was announced back in 2018 and still doesn’t have a release date, with Howard recently confirming that the game is “still a long way off”, suggesting Fallout 5 will not be launched soon.
