Alongside its push on cross-platform compatibility, Bethesda has made it known that it plans to get its games on every platform possible. While this has seen much support for the Nintendo Switch, sometimes limitations can’t be avoided as the developer confirms that Fallout 76 just wasn’t possible on the hybrid …

Bethesda teased the world in June with its official unveiling of The Elder Scrolls VI, the next entry in its expansive role-playing fantasy series. It turns out the wait might be longer than some expected, as the developer hints that the sixth iteration might skip current generation consoles. “The easiest …

The Fallout 76 beta is heading to PC in just a few days time and the full game will be launching in less than a month. With that in mind, Bethesda has decided to announce the game's system requirements for PC gamers. Fallout 76 is an experimental game for Bethesda …

Although Fallout 76 is just three weeks away, Bethesda’s “very new and very scary” attempt at multiplayer is still considered a “work in progress.” As such, this week’s round of “Break it Early Test Application” (B.E.T.A.) is set to carry a number of “unforeseen bugs and issues” that players should …

During the build up to Fallout 76's launch, there has been some confusion surrounding the Fallout lore and the presence of The Brotherhood of Steel. One quest in the game spotted during previews seemed to retcon the Brotherhood's origins. Fortunately, Bethesda has now explained the situation, providing an explanation that …

Bethesda is trying something different with its next Fallout game. Fallout 76 is set to be a big multiplayer game, designed for friends to group up and scour the wasteland together, running into trouble along the way. However, as is the case with most multiplayer games nowadays, there will be …

We're coming up to October, which means it is time for Bethesda to start gearing up for its big Fallout 76 beta. The multiplayer title is heading our way in mid-November but we'll have access to the full game in just a few weeks time as extensive beta testing gets …

While Bethesda fought for cross-platform play within The Elder Scrolls: Legends, the firm stated that Sony’s unhelpful policy against the practice blocked the feature from being included within Fallout 76. Following the surprise announcement that Sony had re-evaluated its stance on cross-platform play, fans are disappointed to find out that …

Although Bethesda has been a beacon for single-player experiences, recent trends of Dishonored supposedly “resting” for the time being and Wolfenstein developer MachineGames taking a step back from larger stories set a worrying precedent for fans. Fortunately, Bethesda’s vice president of PR and marketing, Pete Hines, has reassured people that …

Arkane Studios found itself in the spotlight several years ago after the launch of Dishonored and the franchise's success continued with Dishonored 2 and its subsequent expansion. However, while both games have performed well, we likely won't be seeing a Dishonored 3 for quite some time, as the franchise is …

Bethesda and Sony have a history of clashing, from PlayStation 4’s late adoption of mods to the company’s staunch stance against cross-platform play. It looks like Bethesda might not be giving Sony much of an option when it comes to the latter, however, claiming that cross-platform support for The Elder …

On Friday evening during Quakecon 2018, Bethesda gave us a fantastic showing of DOOM Eternal gameplay. In all, around 20 minutes of new gameplay footage was shown, giving us a look at new mechanics, weapons, abilities and areas to explore. As Quakecon continued, more information about the game came to …

One thing that console players are blessed with is the ability to enter a secondary market by reselling their hard copies of physical games, often prompting the purchase of more games in the process. While the morality of this and impact on developer’s profits has always been debated, a new …

Over the years, several notable publishers have begun moving away from Steam in an effort to grow their own platforms. Bethesda has had its own launcher for a while but hasn't done much to really push it. That is changing this year, as Fallout 76 will be exclusive to the …

While some fans are still recovering from the polarising news that Fallout 76 will be online only, others have found solace in the upcoming Fallout: Miami mod. The 20-person fan-made project maintains Bethesda’s signature single-player style and has finally dropped an official trailer, replacing the dreary Boston landscape of Fallout …

Given its divisive shared-world approach, Bethesda will be conducting a much-needed beta test of Fallout 76 at the beginning of October. Although we’ve known for quite some time that Xbox will be leading the way, with test periods for PC and PS4 shortly following, it seems that not everyone will …

Capitalising on Fallout 3’s success, Bethesda contracted third-party developer Obsidian to make Fallout: New Vegas while it shifting its own focus towards the very first release of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Although the spin-off arguably remains one of the most beloved games in the series, Bethesda boss Todd Howard …

While each Fallout game pits the player in the shoes of a survivor in a post-apocalyptic United States, it’s the introduction of multiplayer in Fallout 76 that truly draws comparisons to the survival genre. Bethesda’s Todd Howard says that this isn’t particularly accurate to what the developer is trying to …

Debuting two similarly themed games during a single E3 conference is a risk, one which Bethesda nearly took this year by showcasing both Fallout 76 and Rage 2. According to developer id Software, Rage 2’s saving grace was an unexpected leak thanks to Walmart Canada, embracing the sequel’s quirkiness through …

Skyrim has become the butt of all jokes in The Elder Scrolls series thanks to Bethesda endlessly re-releasing the game, most recently seeing the title land on Amazon’s Alexa. There is method behind the madness, however, as Bethesda’s director has revealed that Skyrim still manages to pull huge numbers in …

Much to the dismay of its fans, Ubisoft revealed that the future of its titles lies with games-as-a-service, providing players with continues strings of content in the aftermath of release. With the controversial new direction taken by Fallout 76, many feared that Bethesda was heading down the same path. Luckily, …

Bethesda and Sony haven’t had the best relationship over the years, with the publisher’s controversial Creation Club mod suite noticeably omitted from launching on the PlayStation 4.

Last week, we learned that Bethesda is suing Warner Bros and its partner, Behaviour Interactive, over the Westworld mobile game, branding it as a Fallout Shelter rip-off. Everyone involved in the lawsuit has been fairly quiet since then, but this week, Warner Bros spoke out, expressing its surprise, and calling …

Bethesda has divided fans of its apocalyptic survival series after it revealed Fallout 76 was to solely be online with PvP. More concerning was handing players the ability to set off nukes, provided they had the launch codes. One modder has now crafted their vision of what the upcoming title …

Lawsuit alleges that the Westworld mobile game is a rip-off of Fallout Shelter and uses stolen code.

Bethesda has unequivocally confirmed that the world of Fallout 76 will always be online, which prompts concerns of how players will interact with each other and what experience this will provide. Senior vice president of Bethesda’s global marketing, Pete Hines, has stated that Fallout 76 is not solely focused on …

Despite Bethesda’s Todd Howard explicitly emphasising that Fallout 76 was to be an “entirely online” title, many believed that his mention of playing “solo” meant some form of single-player akin to previous entries. Unfortunately, this has been misinterpreted, as Howard has gone on to clarify that other players will indefinitely …

Fallout 76’s premise has been divisive, to say the least. Some people seem to love the idea and others seem to hate it. What we can all agree on is that mods are integral to the Fallout experience, and Todd Howard says Fallout 76 will have mod support, but not …

At Bethesda's E3 conference last night, not only did we get a good look at Fallout 76 and a few other games heading our way in the near future, but we were also treated to two major announcements. For starters, Bethesda has announced The Elder Scrolls VI, but the studio …
