Fallout: New Vegas 2 on the horizon for Obsidian?

13 February 2013

It’s been a while since Fallout: New Vegas released in 2010, and when asked about the company’s plans, Obsidian Entertainment explained that it is very interested in creating a sequel.

“We’d love to do Fallout: New Vegas 2,” said Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart. “It would be awesome,” he added.

Urquhart explained that if the next New Vegas goes into production, it would distance itself from what the team over at Bethesda are currently working on.

“If we were to do Fallout: New Vegas 2 – or just a new Fallout – we would probably separate it from what the internal team at Bethesda’s doing,” said the Obsidian boss.

“And we need an interesting confined area. So I mean, it could be LA. Fallout LA. That could be interesting. It’d probably be The Boneyard, which is from Fallout 1. It could be very different. It could be almost a Walking Dead meets Fallout-like thing because of all the radiation.”

Urquhart went on to talk about the solid relationship between Obsidian and Bethesda, saying that the two companies are always in talks.

He also gave some insight into how the end of the current-gen console lifecycle affects Obsidian.

“What does all the [current] console crap mean? The challenge in this period of time has been, you have this console transition, and it’s strange that they’re still not announced,” Urquhart interestingly said. “But that always creates a disruption in the industry. And now you mix in [the emergence of] mobile and F2P stuff, and it’s left a lot of people reeling.”

“So that’s a lot of the conversation we’ve had with publishers. ‘OK, how do we get back to normal – whatever normal is going to be.’ That’s just the process right now,” concluded Urquhart.

    I would love another Fallout game by Obsidian. They took the linear, bland Fallout world (read: engine/game design/world) that Bethesda essentially just slapped some quests, some NPCs and some landmarks into and gave it life.
