Fallout: New Vegas director Josh Sawyer has said that he’d work on a new Fallout title, as long as certain creative criteria were met.
In the second of his recently launched Q&A series on his YouTube channel, the Pentiment director said he would happily return to Fallout, depending on the level of creative freedom he’d be granted.
“Any project has to do with ‘what are we doing, what are the boundaries, what am I allowed to do and not allowed to do?'” Sawyer said, when asked by a fan about returning to the series.
“I think with any IP, especially one I’ve worked with before, what do I want to do this time that I wasn’t able to do last time?
“If those constraints are just really constraining then it’s not appealing, because who wants to work on something where the one thing they want to explore is not possible?”
Enthusiasm for more Fallout titles from the team behind New Vegas has been growing for years. Last year, original Fallout co-creators Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky expressed their enthusiasm for a potential Fallout New Vegas remaster.
The long-time partners, who most recently co-directed Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds, told The Gamer that they’d be keen to see the studio’s 2010 Fallout game revisited.
“Not that it’s up to me, but wouldn’t a graphical remaster of Fallout New Vegas be awesome?” Cain said in the interview. “It would be awesome”, Boyarsky agreed.
In 2022, it was claimed that very early talks had been held about a potential Fallout New Vegas sequel, with Obsidian and Bethesda owner Microsoft reportedly expressing a lot of interest in making it happen.
Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart recently also said he’d love to work on another Fallout game given the chance.
