Fallout

About

Fallout is the foundational post-apocalyptic RPG that launched the franchise across PC and classic systems in 1997. The series has since expanded dramatically, encompassing numbered entries, spin-offs like New Vegas, the live-service Fallout 76, and a successful TV adaptation. Recent coverage has centered on corporate upheaval at Bethesda's parent company ZeniMax, following Xbox layoffs that affected multiple studios. Reports indicate the company is consolidating resources around flagship franchises including Fallout and The Elder Scrolls, though insiders deny this amounts to narrowing focus entirely. The layoffs have rippled through partner studios like Obsidian, raising concerns about ongoing projects across the franchise. Meanwhile, the Fallout television series is moving forward with a third season in production, and a Wolfenstein reboot is reportedly being developed by producers behind the show. On the modding front, the ambitious Fallout: London project continues development despite delays on its second DLC installment.
