Does anyone know if Bethesda will be making a Fallout 5 or anything like that?

I can't find The Outer Worlds. Just the soundtrack.

its a decent game, it has a fallout style atmosphere but with a Mass Effect feel to it

It's extremely mediocre, and nowhere near the quality of Fallout 4, in any regard.

And, it's also woke AF, if you wondered. But then, Fallout 5 is also very likely to be woke AF. That's what people obviously want these days, the wok as-F-ness.

Any ideas on why it's taking so long?

Starfield ate some time.
I don't blame them at all that they wanted to create a new franchise.

What Starfiled rather suffers from is that it wants to be everything, and, obviously, can only be a tiny bit of everything: A (bigger) big of RPG, a bit of space combat simulator, a bit of build strategy.

A game should be focused, and do something very good, instead of doing a dozen things reasonably well. Quality > quantity. Unfortunately, that's not the Zeitgeist. It has to be BIG, and you have to be able to do A LOT of stuff, regardless whether it makes the game repetitive, unpersonal and boring as hell. And, that's mainly the issue with 99,9% of AAA games these days.

If Starfield was only a RPG, like the old Fallouts (Fallout 3 and New Vegas), then I'd probably be playing it now.

After the success of Fallout tv-show it was hinted that fallout 5 was pushed forward. I still wouldn't expect new game till like 2027 maybe earliest even if they were pushing it hard(with 2028 more likely). The current biggest project coming is Elder Scrolls 6 which has been in the works for long time and even that is 2026 at earliest. With how bad some of Bethesda games have done as of late(launch of Fo76, redfall, Wolfenstein young blood and Starfield) I at least hope they can't afford to cut corners on their 2 big franchises. Then again it's Todd Howard...:sacrificed:
Starfield has done bad? I thought it sold pretty well.

See here, for example: https://gamerant.com/starfield-success-sales-bestselling-games-2023-failure-critical-reception/

And, Redfall and Wolfenstein aren't developed by Bethesda. You could even argue that Fallout 76 wasn't developed by Bethesda. Different team.

Did Starfield sell well? Yes.
Is Starfield highly regarded? No.

Don't get me wrong, Starfield has its fans, but overall public reception has been poor.

I guess it depends what you consider as success? The development costs skyrocketed with Starfield as did marketing. It was originally meant to cost less than 200 million, which more than doubled. With marketing included it made 100-150 million profit while it was expected to break billion in total sales so final profits were fraction of what was expected. To put in perspective Fallout shelter made more money and it was a free game that came as freebie marketing for fallout 4(production costs were small and it made money with micro transactions).
Starfield fell into obscurity to the point nobody talks about the game so effectively it's not gonna rake in money with DLC either. I guess we could label it as simply massive disappointment failing to live expectations both financially and by players, but still technically making profit if we wanna be nice about it. It's unlikely to ever get second game to the hoped franchise given it took 7 years to develop which means ROI per year were plain bad. Standard S&P 500 would've been better investment for them(and since it failed as franchise you can't really justify it as future value either).

As for the studios, they are still under Bethesda. It's not like fallout 76 was made by the main team either, it was studio Austin which made Redfall too(this branch is being or has been shutdown). Main team is working on ES6 currently.

Maybe someone at Xbox will wake up and realise it's a franchise that is too profitable to just leave to Bethesda to put out every couple of decades when they get around to it.

The resurgence in popularity recently proves there is a market, and Fallout London proves Bethesda aren't the only studio that can make a Fallout game.

Microsoft will be on it, you can be sure of that.

On the other hand, Fallout 76 is a continuous money machine, so, financially, there is not much pressure for a new Fallout game.

I frankly don't set my hopes too high anyway, considering that a new Fallout would be a lot in line with most of AAA productions these days: Politically trimmed for the modern generation, and full of quantity and repetitive gameplay and needless bloat. I wouldn't be surprised if I don't buy it at all, and Fallout would be pretty much dead for me with anything coming after Fallout 4.

I probably won't buy the new GTA either, even though I'm a big GTA fan. Full of modern crap I can't relate to or identify myself with it.

The release date for Fallout 5 will obviously be the 23rd October 2077, simultaneously launching the real life counterpart of a nuclear war. The studio has got big plans coming, but they will need some years to prepare for this special day.

It would seem that ALL the major consoles have gotten themselves into a serious problem. They are all suffering at all levels, and add to that the AAA development houses falling flat for the last year or more, and you have all the factors of a major gaming implosion for the second time (although I doubt many of you were alive for the first one)

AAA studios are blowing major budgets and -for the most part- can't sell enough copies to recoup losses. Live service games released in the last year have all collapsed - along with the supposed revenue streams they were to bring. Major Studios are breaking exclusivity deals because consoles haven't sold enough systems to meet minimum sales numbers for what studios have spent on the games for these consoles...

Meanwhile, small A and AA studios have stepped up and released some of the biggest hits of the past year, all for a fraction of the costs of the AAA studios. -And even then the Consoles shoot themselves in the foot (see Sony & Arrowhead)


its almost like the Pareto Principle in action combined with Modernity and and Echo Chamber!
If Youtube is to be believed and lead developer Bruce Nesmith is already running damage control on the next Elder Scrolls game, I wouldn't get your hopes up.

people wanting sequels of a already fine product is stupid.
imagine if all the effort poured into fallout 3, fallout 4, and fallout 76 got dumped into Fallout New Vegas instead?

I'm sure that made sense in your head. 🙄

NV is my second least favorite Fallout game, so what's my incentive here?
