[QUOTE="Admin, post: 54122, member: 1"] Bethesda's Todd Howard has explained that there is an idea for Fallout 5 at the studio, but refused to commit to any other details, from a timescale to possible developers. Speaking during an episode of [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/elder-scrolls-5-skyrim-todd-howard-talks-legacy-elder-scrolls-6-starfield-more-ign-unfiltered-61']IGN Unfiltered[/URL] primarily covering Skyrim's 10th anniversary, Todd Howard was asked if there was a world where – with Bethesda Game Studios focusing on creating on Starfield, followed by The Elder Scrolls 6 – the next mainline Fallout game could be passed to another developer (previously Fallout: New Vegas was handed to Obsidian, for example). Howard seemed to play down that idea, adding that there is a tentative idea for what a prosepective Fallout 5 could be: "I don't see... Look, Fallout's really part of our DNA here. We've worked with other people from time to time – I can't say say what's gonna happen. You know, we have a one-pager on Fallout 5, what we want to do." A one-pager is a term used for a high-level document that outlines a product or business idea. In terms of games, a one-pager would usually include a broad concept for the game, its plot, intended mechanics, target audience, and unique ideas. Essentially, somewhere in Maryland, a vision of Fallout 5 exists. But don't expect that idea to become reality for some time yet. Howard referenced a previous part of the interview in which he discussed how [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/elder-scrolls-6-starfield-bethesda-todd-howard-interview']he'd love to have sped up the time between Skyrim and its sequel[/URL], adding: "Again, if I could wave my hand and have [Fallout 5] out – you know, I'd like to find a way to accelerate what we do, but I can't really say today or commit to anything, [like] what's going to happen when." Howard explained that Bethesda Game Studios' only firm commitments right now are Starfield followed by The Elder Scrolls 6 and, with the developer [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/elder-scrolls-6-starfield-bethesda-todd-howard-interview']making clear that TES6 is still years away[/URL], a new mainline Fallout is almost certainly even further in the future. We continue to know very little about what Fallout 5 could be, but we have some suggestions – although Fallout 76 didn't capture the hearts of many Fallout fans, we do think [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/2018/11/28/what-fallout-5-can-learn-from-fallout-76']it has some ideas that could be carried over into a mainline sequel[/URL]. There's much more to learn from Howard in our [URL='https://www.ign.com/videos/2021/11/09/todd-howard-on-skyrims-legacy-elder-scrolls-6-starfield-and-more-ign-unfiltered-61']huge IGN Unfiltered interview[/URL].
