Fallout: New Vegas deserves a remaster more than any other Bethesda title, even the game’s stars agree.
It’s Fallout Day and we’re mere hours away from some potentially exciting announcements but I wouldn't set your expectations too high.
Bethesda has confirmed the upcoming broadcast will be about current Fallout titles, including Fallout 76, obviously, Fallout Shelter and surprisingly Fallout 4.
If you like Fallout: New Vegas, I think we can expect at least some content regarding Obsidian Entertainment’s Mojave RPG, especially with it being the new setting for the TV series’ second season. My guess is the Fallout 4 content will include clothing, weapons and other items inspired by New Vegas.

Fans undoubtedly want a remaster more than anything though, and even one of Fallout: New Vegas’ stars Danny Trejo is asking Bethesda to give the gamers what they want.
On the Bethesda Instagram post promoting today’s Fallout Day broadcast, Danny Trejo commented, “Remaster New Vegas boss", garnering several replies from fans asking for the same thing.
In case you didn’t know, Danny Trejo played the Ghoul companion Raul Alfonso Tejada in the game, joining other stars like the late Matthew Perry who played the antagonist Benny.
When even the actors who appeared in the game are asking for the game to be remastered or remade, surely you have to listen, right?
Bethesda knows damn well how beloved Fallout: New Vegas is and given how relevant it's been recently, greenlighting a remaster just feels like a no-brainer.
While a Fallout: New Vegas remaster feels like a tall order even despite its popularity, a Fallout 3 remaster feels a bit more realistic.
During the Microsoft V FTC trial some of Xbox’s upcoming games leaked including some Bethesda titles, one of which was The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered which turned out to be true. Alongside the Elder Scrolls game was a Fallout 3 remaster which we haven’t seen yet, but is likely in development.
Bethesda outlining the content of its upcoming broadcast has fans convinced the remaster is never going to happen, but you never know perhaps the studio still has a few cards up its sleeve.
We’ll know soon enough as the Fallout Day livestream will go live at 6pm in the United Kingdom.
Stay vigilant Fallout fans, and if the Fallout: New Vegas remaster isn’t announced don’t fret too much as we’ll see it again later this year when Fallout Season 2 drops.
