Widely regarded as one of the best Fallout games, Fallout: New Vegas has remained a one-off since its launch in 2010. But, that could be set to chance, if rumours swirling about a possible New Vegas 2, are to be believed.
“This is very early, but people have begun to have talks and say these words in sentences, and these words are ‘Obsidian’ and ‘New Vegas 2’,” VentureBeat journo Jeff Grubb said during his latest Grubbsnax show for Giant Bomb (transcribed by VGC).
“We're talking years and years away,” Grubb added. “There's at least an interest and conversations happening about making something like that a reality… A lot of people at Microsoft think that this could work and there’s a lot of interest to make it happen."
Obsidian Entertainment CEO Feargus Urquhart has expressed interest in a Fallout: New Vegas sequel in the past, stating back in 2013 that the studio would “love” to work on follow-up. “It would be awesome,” he remarked.
Should Fallout: New Vegas 2 ever see the light of day - and indeed, these first rumblings of possible internal conversations are encouraging - then it would presumably be an Xbox console exclusive, due to Microsoft's acquisition of Bethesda parent company ZeniMax Media in September 2020, which includes Obsidian. Fingers crossed that Xbox rolls the dice on this one.
