Despite being mentioned by Todd Howard himself back in 2022, with the Bethesda head revealing that it would be the next major project after the launch of The Elder Scrolls VI, Fallout 5 only entered pre-production back in July of this year. As such, it will be many years until we finally receive the next installment in the beloved franchise, but with it having been well over a decade since the last, with Fallout 4 launching back in 2015, it has been a long wait for fans.
With Fallout 5 being so early in production, there is not much we know. We can safely assume that it will be set somewhere in the United States, after Howard revealed that he could not imagine the series taking place anywhere else, but where and when it will take place is a different question entirely. We also do not know if it will be connected to the hit Prime television show in any way, or who our protagonist may be. Quite simply, we know that it is in development, and that is about it.
However, it is its connection to the Fallout television show that has left fans truly baffled. First airing...
