BirSaNN Posted November 18, 2022 Posted November 18, 2022 Fallout 5 is likely a very long way off Fallout 5 is officially in development, but unfortunately likely a long way away from being released. It's easily one of the most anticipated games around, especially given that we haven't had a singleplayer Fallout game since 2015. For now, it seems like Bethesda is busy working on other games. Starfield is the first game that is set to release before Fallout 5, and luckily it's not far off. Beyond that, we have The Elder Scrolls 6 to look forward to, though that's clearly not launching for a while yet. After that, we can finally expect Fallout 5, though we may all be old and grey by that point. In terms of official Fallout 5 info, there certainly isn't a lot out there currently. What we do have are comments from Bethesda, Todd Howard, and even some rumors that have cropped up over the last couple of years. Some point to a possible setting, while others are a little harder to discern. For now, here's everything we know about Fallout 5 so far. As new details are revealed, you'll find this page updated with the latest news. While there's currently no confirmed release date for Fallout 5, there's plenty of speculation. We've seen optimistic predictions but given Bethesda's focus is resolutely on Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6, nevermind the fact that the game hasn't even been revealed, we're not expecting it for a long time. As it stands, we're expecting Fallout 5's release date to be many years down the road, really stretching the previous seven-year gap between Fallout 3 (2008) and Fallout 4 (2015). At the moment, 2025 or later feels more realistic. It depends on how far along the Bethesda teams are with each game. However, given that, in a November 2021 interview with IGN, Todd Howard said the studio has a "one-pager on Fallout 5" – a broad overview of what they want it to be – we think it'll be a while before we hear anything more. What's more, speaking to IGN(opens in new tab) in June 2022, Howard confirmed that Fallout 5 would be Bethesda's project after The Elder Scrolls 6. With that game still in pre-production and a release likely a few years off, we imagine we could be in for a long wait for the next Fallout. Platforms for Fallout 5 haven't been confirmed but it's likely we'll see the next Fallout release for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC. If we're not looking at the next-generation of consoles by this point, that is. PS5, however, is another matter. It stands to reason that Microsoft and Bethesda would make this an exclusive title because of the former's purchase of the latter. However, Xbox has said exclusivity deals on new games from Bethesda will be decided on a case-by-case basis so it's hard to be certain. At the very least, we should expect Fallout 5 to be a title for Xbox Game Pass. Considering console lifecycles usually last about seven years, it seems likely we would see Fallout 5 release on these systems before the next, next-generation systems are going to be introduced. link: https://www.techradar.com/news/fallout-5-release-date-trailer-news-gameplay
