Bethesda Announces Fallout Day Stream For Later This Month

Bethesda took to social media to announce the return of Fallout Day, a livestream to celebrate their post-apocalyptic series and announce new game content in the process. The stream will take place on Thursday, October 23 (the day the bombs fell in the Fallout universe) at 10  PT/1 PM ET/6 PM BST.

“Tune in for the latest news about our existing Fallout games, community celebrations, and upcoming fan events!” the announcement reads. Fans hoping for a surprise reveal of a new spin-off or the far-off Fallout 5 are out of luck, but Fallout 76 players likely have news to look forward to. Just last week, Bethesda announced the newest free expansion, Burning Springs, would take players to rural southeast Ohio later this year.

There’s also an optimistic reading of this language that means there’s potential for a remake or remaster to show up, which isn’t as impossible as it might seem. Leaked documents from the Xbox/Activision Blizzard FTC trial revealed a Fallout 3 Remaster was in the works. Given that the Oblivion Remaster turned out to be real, there’s a good chance Bethesda actually has a Fallout 3 Remaster in the works, though whether it’s announced on Fallout Day is anyone’s guess.

Last year’s inaugural stream was almost entirely devoted to Fallout 76, and coincided with sales for the series’ past games, Twitch drops, and a post-show led by Fallout for Hope, a charity organization supported by the Fallout community. You can get an idea of what to expect by checking out last year’s show below.
