After days of debates over what is and isn't canon, Todd Howard has the final say on whether the Fallout TV show is part of the game universe

Fallout.

Fallout helmer and Bethesda boss Todd Howard once again confirms that yes, the TV show adaptation is canon.

A debate over whether the live-action Prime Video series was ignited after a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment involving a chalkboard and a date. The series takes place in the year 2296, with the bombs dropping and The Great War beginning in 2077. In the show, Shady Sands, a colony of sorts that served as an attempt at restarting civilization, was destroyed in 2277. The game Fallout: New Vegas, however, takes place in 2281.
