The news is somewhat disappointing to fans who, with the knowledge that the in-game nuclear-war was a global event, expected Fallout to one day show us its impact across other areas of the world.

However, Howard recently ruled this possibility out in an interview with Kinda Funny Games. Hesaid: “My view is part of the Fallout schtick is on the Americana naivete and part of that. And so, for us right now, it’s OK to acknowledge some of those other areas. But our plan is to predominantly keep it in the U.S.”

He continued: “I also like in any sort of world, I don’t feel the need to answer. It’s OK to leave mystery or questions: what is happening here?

What is happening here? I think those are good things. InElder Scrollseverybody wants to go to these other, mysterious lands. The worst thing you could do to mysterious lands is remove the mysteriousness. Keep mysterious lands mysterious!”

With the Fallout series already taking us across Nevada, Washington, Boston and West Virginia to name a few, it remains to be seen whereFallout 5will take place. However, we now firmly know that it will be somewhere across the pond.
