Obsidian founder would make a new Fallout if given the opportunity

Obsidian Entertainment’s relationship with the Fallout franchise can be traced all the way back to the inception of the very first game. Unfortunately, the studio has not made a Fallout title since the much-loved Fallout: New Vegas back in 2010. That being said, if given the opportunity, Obsidian Entertainment would jump on the chance to make another Fallout.

In a recent interview with DualShockers, Obsidian Entertainment's co-founder Feargus Urquhart was asked whether the studio had any interest in working on the Fallout franchise after more than a decade away. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Urquhart said:

“Of course, if we ever got the opportunity to make another Fallout game, we'd make it. There's not even a question of whether or not we would do it, it's just ‘Will the opportunity arise? I hung around at Interplay for probably an extra year because I wanted to work on Fallout more. I love Fallout.”

It is worth noting that Obsidian Entertainment is currently juggling a number of titles (including The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed) and as such would be unlikely to be able to take on a project as major as Fallout currently. That being said, Urquhart did claim that:

“At some point we'll start looking into what those next games are going to be, and I would be surprised if Fallout is not on that list. If we were to do Fallout, it has to tie in with what Bethesda is doing with Fallout and a lot of other things, but I would always personally say my hope is that before I ride off into the sunset, I'd love to make another Fallout game.”

Fallout New Vegas serves as many fans’ favourite franchise entry, and that is in spite of the game’s short development time. With the technology and resources available to Obsidian Entertainment today, the concept of another Fallout being developed by the studio is a highly exciting one.
