The newly appointed Xbox chief, Asha Sharma, is reportedly expediting the development of upcoming titles in The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Halo franchises as she sets her sights on rejuvenating Microsoft's gaming division. This news has left fans of the post-apocalyptic Fallout series eager for insights into the future of the franchise, with some expressing concerns over potential fan fatigue from hastily produced sequels. The last mainline Fallout game, Fallout 76 (2018), introduced multiplayer elements to the traditionally single-player open-world role-playing series, marking a decade since the release of Fallout 4. With Fallout 5 still on the horizon, following The Elder Scrolls 6, there's speculation that Bethesda may opt for remasters or sequels as interim measures. However, Howard, former lead designer at Bethesda, has been tight-lipped about the possibility of such projects. Meanwhile, Microsoft is eager to capitalize on the success of Fallout and its other big-hitters, with industry insiders suggesting that Obsidian, developers of the beloved Fallout: New Vegas, could be tapped for a potential remake or sequel. In an interview, Josh Sawyer, director of Fallout: New Vegas and current Obsidian studio member, hinted at the possibility but stressed that such decisions are made by higher-ups in the company. With Obsidian currently without a new project after the commercial underperformance of Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2, this collaboration could prove beneficial for both parties. However, concerns remain about whether lightning can strike twice for Obsidian, given the short development period for their most recent releases.
