UNCOVERED: All this fallout tv show buzz and no new fallout game to play but so what | History Defined

Dogmeat and the Sole Survivor from Fallout 4.

It's impossible not to notice that while the success of the Fallout TV show is getting lots of people excited about Fallout, there's no new Fallout game to play. Fallout 76 is over five years old, and Fallout 4 turns nine this year. Bethesda is going to make a Fallout 5, but you might lose your money if you bet that it'll be out by 2030.

The observation that Bethesda might've missed an opportunity has been made many times on social media, and yeah, I assume it would've been prudent business-doing to have dropped a new Fallout game somewhere in the vicinity of all this buzz. But I'm not convinced that Bethesda Game Studios has made some huge blunder here. Its leisurely pace is one of the things I like about it.
