Bethesda’s Fallout series features some of the most beloved RPGs of all time and depending on who you ask, fans will likely give a different answer as to which entry is best.
For me, 2008’s Fallout 3 will always have a special place in my heart as does Fallout: New Vegas, the latter of which is the topic of today’s discussion. Released in 2010, Bethesda outsourced Fallout: New Vegas to Obsidian Entertainment and it proved to be a wise move indeed.

What’s more, it’s perhaps even more impressive when you consider that Fallout: New Vegas was intended to be an expansion to Fallout 3, before Bethesda decided to evolve it into a standalone game, another wise move by the publisher.
There have been rumblings that Fallout: New Vegas may get a modern remake or remaster and Obsidian Entertainment has seemingly teased interest in reviving this classic RPG but at the time of writing, no such delight has come to fruition.
However, to spark the diminishing flame in our hearts once more, the director of Fallout: New Vegas, Josh Sawyer has teased that he’d like to develop a new Fallout game, as long as he has creative freedom from Bethesda.
During a Q&A session on Sawyer’s YouTube channel, when asked about the potential of working on a new Fallout game, he replied:
“Any project has to do with ‘what are we doing, what are the boundaries, what am I allowed to do and not allowed to do. If those constraints are just really constraining, then it’s not appealing, because who wants to work on something where the one thing they want to explore is not possible?”
At this time, while we know that Fallout 5 will be released at some point, Bethesda has given no such word on a Fallout: New Vegas remake, remaster or sequel. That being said, if either of those would happen, it would be nice to at least get some of the original band back together.
