Bethesda Teases New Fallout Announcement Before E3 On Twitch
By Jesse Collins ·
With E3 right around the corner, Bethesda has a few tricks up their sleeve early. Suddenly this morning, all of their imaging on social media requested the public "Please Stand By" and Fallout's Vault Boy Bobblehead accompanied it.
Update 5/29/18 9:21 AM PST: People have been reaching out to Obsidian Entertainment, the fine folks that brought Fallout to New Vegas. They had some bad news for their fans.
How do you let someone down easily?

War. War never changes, but neither does Bethesda. Today, their marketing and social media has turned all of their pictures to old fashioned "Please Stand By" imaging. While it was fairly obvious that their franchise, Fallout, was involved, it wasn't until the ongoing Twitch stream added the Vault Boy bobblehead giving his classic thumbs up.

It's unclear what the plan is, but fans have boiled it down to two options that it could be. Either Fallout 4 is coming to the Nintendo Switch or Fallout 3 is getting a 10th anniversary remaster, which would come to all systems.
Fallout 3 already exists through backwards compatibility on the Xbox One, having been a free throw-in for buying Fallout 4 on Microsoft's system. Fallout 4 coming to the Switch, however, would be following Bethesda's recent footsteps of DOOM and Wolfenstein II coming to Nintendo. We expect tons of announcements at E3, but Bethesda is trying to get out ahead with today's emergency broadcast.
