Fallout creator reveals the true purpose of the vaults

Fallout vaults are unusual. On the surface, they're basically sophisticated bomb shelters designed to help US citizens survive the eponymous fallout of the 2077 war. But if you've played Fallout 3, New Vegas, or Fallout 4 - or the classic isometric RPG games from Interplay and Obsidian - you know that the vault's creator, Vault-Tec, is up to something more sinister. Now, Tim Cain, co-creator of the original Fallout way back in 1997, shares the true, original meaning behind the vaults.

Fallout: London modders just released a massive WWI-era gun can try in Fallout 4

With Bethesda finishing up Starfield for an October 2023 release, and with The Elder Scrolls 6 still waiting in the wings, it's safe to say we won't see Fallout 5 for another… eight years? 10 years? Maybe more?..

'New Vegas 2' appears in Fallout 4 Steam update, then quickly vanishes

A new Fallout 4 Steam update includes mention of a 'New Vegas 2,' but is then quickly changed and removed, as the Bethesda RPG game heads towards the launch of its upcoming next-gen version, and we ponder the possibility of a Fallout 5 release date. With Starfield also just around the corner, and developers at Obsidian giving their unofficial blessing to a Fallout New Vegas remake, we're naturally left to wonder what on scorched, post-apocalyptic earth is going on.

Fallout 4 Steam update mentions ‘New Vegas 2’, bewildering New Vegas fans

Following a Fallout 4 update on Steam, fans have noticed — and are now bewildered by — the appearance of ‘New Vegas 2’ in the update, via SteamDB. Not long after, this particular branch was removed, although, it is still visible on SteamDB.

This isn’t exactly unusual. It wouldn’t come as a surprise that Fallout 4 is gearing up for new content, especially with Fallout 4’s next-gen update arriving later this year. That said, this particular branch, and its removal, hasn’t stopped Fallout fans from theorising all the possibilities of what ‘New Vegas 2’ might mean. After all, New Vegas does have a die-hard fan base out there, and can you blame them? Fallout: New Vegas is perhaps the best Fallout game of them all.

While the simplest answer is that Bethesda are perhaps planning some New Vegas-themed content for Fallout 4, more specifically a Creation Club pack, it’s nice to pretend, and hope, that a New Vegas sequel or remaster could be coming. There is, after all, every chance that Bethesda could remaster the brilliant RPG from Obsidian in Fallout 4’s engine, or even release a New Vegas-themed DLC for Fallout 4. The chances of it actually happening, however, with Starfield around the corner and The Elder Scrolls 6 being in pre-production, appear slim.
