It would nice to see Fallout explore different parts of the world, but that might change the game up too much and alienate long-term fans who are particularly fond of the setting. Fallout 3, for example, was set in Washington while Fallout 4 took place in Boston. If you've ever played a Fallout game, you'll know how much it loves its doomsday nuclear-ravaged American setting.įallout games have all been set in a US state, so it would stand to reason this aspect wouldn't change. Fallout 5 location and setting: where could it be set? At the very least, we'd expect Fallout 5 to be a title for Xbox Game Pass.Ĭonsidering 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. It stands to reason that Microsoft and Bethesda would make this an exclusive title because of the former's purchase of the latter earlier this year, but 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. It's likely we'll see the next Fallout release for the PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Fallout 5 platforms: will it be an Xbox exclusive? Obviously, the ongoing coronavirus pandemic is going to complicate matters in development, which could feasibly lead to multiple delays, even following an announcement of the game. It all really depends on how far along the Bethesda teams are with each game, but it would make sense that we would see Fallout 5 released sometime after these titles.
