Fallout 4 has (apparently) been absent from E3 this year. However, behind closed doors, Bethesda gave details and a 37 second trailer for the upcoming Fallout 4. Pete Hines of Bethesda is keeping tight lipped about the 45 minute presentation, but it seems there was a leaker inside who was willing to give this information. Aside from all the rumours, this is the only confirmed news. It just looks like we have another 2 years before we'll be able to play the game.

Bulletpoints:

> Fallout 4 has been in development since January 2011 by a small team, as the majority were working on Skyrim. > As of February 2013, the team working on Fallout 4 is the size of the team which was working on Skyrim. This is due to Skyrim development ending. > As it stands now, Fallout 4 will release on Xbox One, PS4, PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. However, this is still subject to change. > The actual announcement for Fallout 4 will come BEFORE E3 2014, but will NOT launch in 2014. > The expected launch is in October 2015. > The game is (as of June 2013) 55% complete, consequently, voice actors will be hired towards the end of 2014. > There is no planned multi-player, but there is a possibility of Co-Op locally. > The game will take place in Somerville, Cambridge, Arlington (and surrounding areas). The main setting is in a Post-Apocalyptic Boston. However, this area will not be immediately accessible. > The story is not clear, however, Vaults exist. > The 37 second trailor starts starts with a half-broken phone sparking. The scene pulls out slowly with the stereotypical music you would hear. Slowly you work out the scene is pulling out of a belltower. As it pulls further out, you see a destroyed town around. This is Boston. Suddenly, you hear the bell chime loudly, and the screen changes black instantly. The words of Ron Pearlman are heard "War... War never changes...". The logo for Fallout 4 appears with the 5 platforms above listed.

Skyrim 2 :D

[Dr. Kenneth Noisewater]

I don't want another brown city, thanks.

No Wii U? Shocking?

2015?

[StuBurns]

Current gen in 2015? No.

[Dimorphic]

Fallout 3 Kinect Edition.

[Spiffy_1st]

It'll be shown at the VGA's.

[lemonade]

Another post ap world huh

[CoolZombie360]

I really enjoyed both Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Definitely can't wait for the next one.

It certainly does seem unlikely it will launch on current generation late 2015, by then I'd have thought most teams would have migrated over to the new hardware.

[Massa]

This is most likely false, Jason Schreier from Kotaku posted something to that effect here on GAF. People are just reaching because they want Fallout 4, but if I had to bet it would be on something from id.

[JaseC]

FWIW, Schreier has said that Kotaku didn't see it.

Edit: Beaten.

Edit edit:

Didn't the press get shown [Fallout 4] behind closed doors at E3 I don't think so

[Wanny]

I don't want another brown city, thanks.

Freaking artists don't need to make it brown.

[maquiladora]

Late 2015 release and its coming to fucking Xbox 360 and PS3? Really?

No fucking way.

[A Serious Man]

I don't want another brown city, thanks.

Don't worry, there is some brown countryside too.

[Maxrunner]

i wonder if it will suck like that false fallout, called fallout 3...

[Sn4ke_911]

Skyrim 2 :D

No thanks.

[FHIZ]

Give me Allston! It'll probably look no different after a nuclear apocalypse anyway!

[I-hate-u]

FWIW, Schreier has said that Kotaku didn't see it. Edit: Beaten. Edit edit:

Maybe Kotaku were not invited.

[Snowden's Secret]

A game set in a Boston destroyed by bombs?

FOX News would eat this alive if true.

[Marcel]

i wonder if it will suck like that false fallout, called fallout 3...

The answer is yes. Bethesda hasn't given anyone a reason to trust them.

[boinx]

Xbone exclusive am cry. But cross-gen in 2015? Please no.

[NBtoaster]

PS3 and 360 games in 2015? :x

[grandjedi6]

Prey 2's revision being shown behind closed doors would actually fit all the facts way better than Fallout 4 or anything else.

[Kusagari]

It's 55% done and isn't expected for another 2+ years?

[Lagspike_exe]

If this is true, then it doesn't seem that MS made an exclusivity deal with Bethesda.

[JehutyRunner]

Nope.

[Dysun]

Disappointing to hear it's in development as a cross-gen game. Wont expect much of an engine overhaul if thats the case

[MEsoJD]

Skyrim 2 :D

god I hope not.

[Ein Bear]

45 minute long presentation with 37 seconds of footage? Feel kind of sorry for the people that went to that, sounds dead boring.

[runnin_blue]

I'm calling bullshit.

(Only coz I don't wanna wait 'til 2015)

[Shake Appeal]

Pretty sure the Fallout license doesn't exist. Or maybe I just blacked out whatever came after Fallout 2. Anyway.

[JayDub]

Is it cool to hate on Bethesda/Skyrim now? What the hell?

[JaseC]

Maybe Kotaku were not invited.

Perhaps. That would be why I was sure to include "FWIW". ;)

[CaptainTiptop]

Not expecting that current-gen release to see the light of day.

Is it cool to hate on Bethesda/Skyrim now? What the hell?

Opinions.

[Marcel]

Is it cool to hate on Bethesda/Skyrim now? What the hell?

It's not cool or new, but it's justified.

[JayDub]

Opinions.

The last thread where Skyrim was mentioned, similar sentiments were being thrown around.

"Hope its not like Skyrim."
"Skyrim? No thanks."
"They've lost my trust after Skyrim"

It's not cool or new, but it's justified.

Could you elaborate?

[EuropeOG]

Fake for me.

Also this is a horrendously awful source. It amounts to a random blog post by someone not even remotely involved in the video game industry. Indeed, your source is a 28 year old model who posts things like "My Night in Underwear" and "Being beautiful is too hard!"

Saying I'm dubious is being generous.

[CecilRousso]

If true, message to develop team: Please look on how Obsidian handled quests in Fallout: New Vegas. Please make sure that writing is much much improved from your previous games.

[WorstUsernameEver]

While I don't doubt that Bethesda really is working on Fallout 4 and might even show it behind close-doors first, this rumor doesn't sound legit. Cross-gen with a 2015 release date and co-op? It doesn't strike me as very Bethesda-ish. The rest is vague enough to be credible.

[Toothless Spoon]

Wow if 2015 really is the release window then I hope they are using a great engine for it, to withstand the test of time. Or maybe that's why it's going to take that long, if they are using mega-textures like Rage - then it might take that extra time to make the engine work properly.

I would love for this game to come out in 2014, 2015 is just so far away - but I do applaud them for not revealing if they are looking for a 2015 release.

[Marcel]

Could you elaborate?

Ever play Skyrim, an already bland and technically incompetent game, on PS3? http://www.gamesradar.com/high-horse...be-your-fault/

[Mortimer Brewster]

I'd prefer it if Obsidian did FO4 since New Vegas was the true 3 for me.

[Dabanton]

2015? Why bother showing anything this time round?

[Impeccable]

55% done but won't release until fall of 2015? Weird.

[jonno394]

October 2015 and releasing on 360 and PS3? Souns a bit ludicrous to me.

[JayDub]

I have it on PS3, and it certainly fuckin sucks, but that doesn't change the fact that Skyrim is effin amazing.

[Phinal Phantasy]

Yay!

[DeuceGamer]

Current gen in 2015? No.

Late 2015 at that...Going to be a strange transition.

[Kusagari]

sounds legit
