Obsidian game directors Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, co-creators of the Fallout series, are all for a remaster of Fallout: New Vegas.
During an interview with TheGamer, Cain and Boyarsky expressed interest in revisiting what many consider one of the best western RPGs ever.
“Not that it’s up to me, but wouldn’t a graphical remaster of Fallout: New Vegas be awesome?” Cain said.
“It would be awesome,” Boyarsky replied.
Fallout: New Vegas initially came out on Oct. 19, 2010, for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. It was quite an infamous release because while the game was fantastic, there were countless bugs and glitches – partially because it had a rocky development.
The Outer Worlds, Cain and Boyarsky’s most recent effort, is getting PS5 and Xbox Series X|S re-release on Mar. 7, 2023 – which similarly had a somewhat rocky launch back in 2019.
“When [The Outer Worlds] came out, it had stability issues,” Eric DeMilt, production director, said. “It’s overcome those, and now people are able to go back to that game because those characters and the stories are just rich, and people want to be in there.”
There were rumors of Fallout: New Vegas 2 early in 2022, but nothing has come of those whispers since.
