Have Fallout 4 and New Vegas again, say Bethesda, and also a release date for Fallout 76's Burning Springs

Yesterday was Fallout Day, the date in the series' universe when the bombs dropped and permanently turned a lot of people into those skeletons you grind into dust while tramping about in your power armour. Bethesda awakened Todd Howard from cryo-sleep, and announced some stuff in a broadcast. Fallout 4 and New Vegas are being sold to people again. Also, in admittedly more exciting news, Fallout 76's Burning Springs update got a proper release date.

The upcoming second series of Prime Video's Fallout TV Show was also there, with that and the 76 update set to make December very Walton Gogginsy.

Fallout 5 was nowhere to be seen during today's Fallout Day broadcast, but Bethesda did unveil some sort-of-newish Fallout in the form of the Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition and the Fallout: New Vegas 15th Anniversary Bundle, a big-box package that comes complete with a big ol' Securitron statue...

"There's really no winning": Fallout 2 Remake mod lead talks "walking the thin line" of reimagining a classic

Skyblivion might have bagged more headlines, but it's far from the only ambitious modding project being worked on for a Bethesda game with the goal of putting a fresh spin on a classic. Fallout 4: Project Arroyo arguably has an even tougher task, with its team aiming to reimagine the turn-based and isometric Fallout 2 through Fallout 4's 3D action lens.

In a fresh interview with YouTuber AVV Gaming that also sheds light on how the team are hoping to incorporate aspects of an original Fallout remake mod that was mothballed last year, Project Arroyo lead Damion Daponte has discussed how they've approached the difficult task of deciding how much to tweak as they reinterpret the 90s RPG.

Fresh off of releasing the massive mod's first DLC earlier this week, the team behind Fallout: London have confirmed that they've still got no plans to port it to the next-gen update version of Fallout 4. There is, however, one factor that could lead them to reconsider doing so.

Since Team FOLON's take on a post-apocalytic English capital released last summer, playing it has required downgrading your copy of Fallout 4 to an older iteration released prior to April 2024's next-genning of Bethesda's RPG. With the next-gen update arriving out of the blue just ahead of Fallout: London's planned initial release, the modders opted to put it out on this older version for stability reasons, following a delay that allowed them to explore their options.
