Selvom at Fallout 5 ikke åbent er blevet afsløret af Bethesda Game Studios, så er det en åben hemmelighed at det bliver det næste store projekt efter The Elder Scrolls VI. Faktisk spiller studiet med så åbne kort, at de har delt detaljer om spillet, tilsyneladende mest narrative, med folkene bag den kommende tv-serie, mest af alt for at undgå gentagelser.
I et interview med Den of Geek fortæller showrunner Jonathan Nolan dette:
"It means you have all of the benefit of beautiful storytelling that Todd and [Bethesda] has contributed to, but we also get to tell an original story within that world. As writers and filmmakers, it's just a dream come true. I think we made Fallout 6. We know all about Fallout 5, we're not telling anyone."
Han bakkes op af Todd Howard, der vitterligt bruger navnet "Fallout 5":
"Well, there were some things where I said, 'Don't do this because we are going to do that in Fallout 5'."
Serien lander d. 12 april.
