Fallout 76 Will Have More Content Based On The TV Show

Bethesda Game Studios has teased plans to add more content to Fallout 76 based on the Prime Video TV series. Creative director Jon Rush said in an interview with Variety that the game studio and TV teams are in discussion “all the time,” but it’s too soon to say what specific content may be in the works.

“Lining things up with the seasonal releases of the show, it’s stuff that we talk about all the time, and we do have plans for things here and there. I’m not going to go into detail on any of those now, but the two teams do talk to one another,” Rush said.

While there may be opportunities for crossover content, Rush pointed out that Fallout 76’s story is the furthest back in time for the series and the TV show is the furthest into the future. “So there’s a lot of room where we don’t necessarily need to overlap. There are some things that we could overlap the stories ,that could exist, but we largely try to keep those pretty simple,” Rush said.

Fallout 76’s Season 21 update launched in June, and the introduction of fishing was its biggest draw. If you’re just getting started, you can consult GameSpot’s Fallout 76 fishing guide to learn more.

The Fallout TV series is coming back for a second season, which premieres this December on Prime Video. A third season will follow after that.

Looking further out, Bethesda has already confirmed it’s making Fallout 5. Just recently, a report said Fallout 5 is now “fully greenlit,” with Bethesda management reportedly choosing to cancel the “Blackbird” MMO from ZeniMax Online Studios and focus on Fallout 5 instead.

Next up for Bethesda Game Studios is The Elder Scrolls VI, the long-awaited RPG that fans Bethesda boss Todd Howard suggested may have been announced too early.
