Tim Cain, the person who created Fallout, has introduced that he has rejoined Obsidian Leisure, the staff accountable for Fallout: New Vegas. Naturally, it has brought about followers to get a little bit bit excited, hoping for a brand new Fallout title.

Cain initially joined Obsidian in 2011 as a programmer, engaged on video games like South Park and Pillars of Eternity. He left the corporate in 2020 however did hold working with them on a contract foundation, co-directing The Outer Worlds. He additionally acted as a advisor for that sport’s sequel, The Outer Worlds 2.

Tim Cain made the announcement that he’s returning to Obsidian as a full-time worker on his personal Youtube channel, saying: “I’m again at Obsidian. I’m there as a full-time worker and in-person, so not distant, and I’m not a contractor anymore. Which means I’m not working at different locations, though there’s at the very least one sport that I labored on [elsewhere] that I do know goes to ship.”

So, what’s he engaged on? Unsurprisingly, he can not say.

“I can’t discuss concerning the undertaking that I’m engaged on at Obsidian, simply because that’s coated by NDA,” he acknowledged.

He additionally advises that you just don’t attempt to determine outwhat he’s engaged on: “Don’t hassle guessing, you’re not going to guess proper.”

That would appear to rule out a return to Fallout since that will most likely be many individuals’s first guess and fervent hope. Maybe The Outer Worlds 3 is already within the works? There’s additionally the likelihood that he’s engaged on Avowed 2. Or a wholly new IP.

No matter it winds up being, Obsidian has been very busy this yr, releasing Avowed, The Outer Worlds 2, and Grounded 2 in Early Entry. That’s fairly rattling spectacular. And with Tim Cain again and kicking ass, the longer term is trying good for Obsidian.

P.S. Whereas I haven’t written a assessment for it but, The Outer Worlds 2 has been totally pleasant to this point.
