FALLOUT 5 Will Be Set in the United States, Confirms Bethesda’s Todd Howard

The location of any Fallout game is always its defining feature. So, of course, there’s a lot of conversation surrounding where Fallout 5 might take place. Some fans would like to see the Fallout franchise head abroad, as all of its games (and its TV series adaptation) to date have been set in the United States. However, Bethesda’s Todd Howard has confirmed Fallout probably won’t leave the United States any time soon.

Here’s what he had to say:

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.

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. In Elder Scrolls everybody 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!

Howard makes a fair point. Some questions just don’t need answers. And we can understand how the history and present of the United States are deeply embedded into the Fallout games and series.

With his comments, Howard not only confirms integral information about the Fallout series but also narrows the possible location of Fallout 5.
