Xbox wants more Fallout, and after a yearslong drought of new games, Bethesda Softworks is making it happen. Bethesda plans to release remasters of both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas for modern platforms, the company said in July in a massive roadmap of the developer’s future.
Those remasters are part of a larger plan to reinvest in Fallout games, including Fallout 5, which is currently in pre-production, and a new project at Obsidian Entertainment.
“We have multiple Fallout projects in active development right now,” Bethesda said in an official announcement this summer. That includes Fallout 5, which is described as the studio’s “long-range destination,” and “a major Fallout 76 expansion” planned for 2027 called Raven Rock, which will serve as a prequel story to Fallout 3.
Bethesda also confirmed two long-standing rumors, announcing remasters for Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. The studio did not provide any further details or a release window, but the projects have reportedly been in the works for many years. The existence of a Fallout 3 remaster dates back to at least 2020, when the project’s existence was revealed through court documents related to the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) litigation regarding Microsoft’s buyout of Activision Blizzard.
