After Starfield, which will arrive on Xbox Series X and Windows PC next year, and after The Elder Scrolls 6, which is now “in pre-production,” there will be Fallout 5. So says Todd Howard, creative director of Bethesda Game. Studios, in a new interview with IGN that was mainly about his team’s next game, the Starfield space RPG.
Reacting to the long run between Bethesda Game Studios games and how long the sequels usually take, Howard told IGN, “Yeah, Elder Scrolls 6 is in pre-production, and you know, we’re going to do Fallout 5 after that, so “Our board is pretty full for a while. We have other projects that we look at from time to time, but they take a while. I’d like them to come out faster. Really. for everyone “.
Howard and company officially announced Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 in 2018, and the first will finally be released next year. (It was delayed from November of this year.) A similar development window for the latter would set the next Elder Scrolls game around 2027, which makes the perspective of the window of Elder Scrolls release of the next Fallout game is too exhausting to write. This, of course, means that only Bethesda Game Studios would devote five years to each of its upcoming games, and that the main development would not be delivered, for example, to the developer of Fallout Obsidian Entertainment, which is currently busy with multiple role-playing games of its own. (Repentance, Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2).
The latest main Fallout game, Fallout 4, was released in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One. Bethesda Softworks launched a successor, Fallout 76, in 2018, with mixed reaction. But Bethesda has continued to expand and improve its multiplayer Fallout game, and this fall will release a new update, The Pitt.
