Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard in an interview with IGN was about about a new Fallout game and he told fans not to expect a new release anytime soon.
The studio is focused on finishing up Starfield before its November 11, 2022 release and after that The Elder Scrolls VI, which likely won't see a release until 2024 or later.
"Look, Fallout's really part of our DNA here," said Howard. "We've worked with other people from time to time, I can’t say what’s going to happen. You know, we have a one-pager on Fallout 5, what we want to do.
"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, what’s going to happen when, other to say that our cadence is Starfield and then Elder Scrolls VI."
Bethesda is now part of Xbox Game Studios, along with Fallout New Vegas developer Obsidian Entertainment. This does mean it is possible another studio could take the reigns on a new Fallout game.
