According to sources, Xbox would like to speed up development of Fallout 5 to take advantage of the success of the Amazon series.

Obviously the series fall out from Amazon Prime Video has been a success, at least as far as its relationship with video games is concerned: the Bethesda saga has increased both the number of players and sales of its latest installments, highlighting Fallout 4 which also just received a free update for next-gen consoles with performance improvements and new content.

Although the last two games of the saga are still alive (we include here Fallout 76

which, thanks to the series, reached a record for the number of players), The success of the Fallout series has left Bethesda without a new game neither in stores nor in development: the next game in the saga, which we roughly call “Fallout 5”you still have to wait for extensions to be developed star field since its launch Elder Scrolls VIwhich doesn’t even have a release date.

A Fallout 5 not developed by Bethesda?

However, now that Bethesda has become part of Xbox, it looks like Microsoft would be interested in accelerating the development of the next fall out

so as not to lose the momentum of success that the series had generated. This is reported by insider Jez Corden in the latest Xbox Two program, where he insists that Xbox is “aware” of the desire to create a new fall out and they will be thinking about how to decide how far away the next delivery will be.

According to Insider Gaming, there are also rumors that Xbox one could bet on promoting the development of new fall out to another studio in its portfolio of companies, opening up the possibility that Fallout 5 is not being developed by Bethesda; This will happen for the second time since this company has held the license, following a magnificent and acclaimed Fallout: New Vegas

developed Obsidian Entertainmentwhich is now also part of Xbox.
