Fallout: New Vegas 2 was real at one point before Obsidian's plans "quickly evaporated," says senior designer, but a revival "will not happen in the next six years at least, if ever"

Fallout: New Vegas.

Fallout: New Vegas 2 was but a sparkle in the eyes of top leadership at Obsidian before plans for a sequel fell apart, reveals the studio's former senior designer Chris Avellone.

In a recent talk with TKs-Mantis, Avellone is asked about Fallout 2 developer Black Isle Studios' canceled Fallout 3, which was codenamed Van Buren. Specifically, TKs-Mantis asks whether his theory that "New Vegas acts as if the events of Van Buren happen" is correct. It turns out TKs-Mantis is "partly right" and that "there are certain things that were gonna take place in Van Buren that do happen during the time of New Vegas," Avellone says.
