Todd Howard Guarantees Fallout 5 Secrets Safe from TV Show

Mar 11, 2024 1:12 PM

Fans of the Fallout series can rest assured that the upcoming Fallout TV series on Amazon Prime Video won't spoil any of the surprises planned for Fallout 5. This assurance comes straight from Bethesda's Todd Howard, who has been closely monitoring the show's development to ensure it doesn’t infringe on the content of the upcoming game. Howard has actively intervened to prevent the TV series from including elements that are intended for the game, maintaining a clear distinction between the two mediums. Although specifics of the disallowed content are unknown, Howard has expressed that the show is not a direct adaptation of the games but will instead explore unique aspects within the Fallout universe.

In a recent interview, showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Graham Wagner have acknowledged they're aware of Bethesda's initiatives for Fallout 5 due to their collaboration but have committed to keeping these details under wraps. Meanwhile, the Fallout community is also anticipating the release of the expansive Fallout 4 mod Fallout: London, which features one of the voice actors from Baldur's Gate 3.

Will the Fallout TV series spoil Fallout 5?

No, Todd Howard has ensured that the Fallout TV series on Amazon Prime Video will not spoil any upcoming surprises from Fallout 5 by preventing the inclusion of related game elements in the series.

Additional background information: Fallout is a post-apocalyptic role-playing game series developed by Bethesda Game Studios, known for its open-world exploration, deep lore, and choice-driven narrative. The anticipated Fallout 5 will follow in the footsteps of its predecessors, with expectations of a vast wasteland to explore and numerous factions to interact with. Each Fallout game typically presents a different region of the United States, ranging from the Capital Wasteland in Fallout 3 to the Commonwealth in Fallout 4, portraying detailed post-nuclear settings with rich storytelling and engaging gameplay mechanics. As fans await the release of Fallout 5, they are eager to see how the series will evolve and what new adventures await in the radioactive wastelands.
