Todd Howard reveals how the recent Fallout TV show's booming success has had a massive impact on Bethesda's post-apocalyptic RPGs.
In an interview with Variety discussing the Amazon Prime series, Howard explains that while the Fallout franchise has "kind of been sneaky popular for a while," it hadn't reached "this level" of activity before the TV show's monumental premiere in April. Less than two months have passed since then but the number of active daily players across all Fallout games has more than quadrupled to five million: "Depending on the 'Fallout' game, you're looking at a 4-6x increase in daily players," Howard explains.
