Fallout is one of the most popular video game franchises ever. The plot of the games are based on a post-apocalyptic world, and gamers must maneuver the wasteland to complete missions. The Fallout franchise pioneered several aspects that are included in most role-playing games today. Fallout 4 is three years old now, and gamers are ready for the next title in the series. Luckily, they'll be getting it soon.
Fallout developer Bethesda teased a new game in the series earlier this week with a GIF and the hashtag #PleaseStandBy. Soon after, they broadcasted a live stream that featured a Fallout bobblehead in front of a Please Stand By image. Before fans were able to speculate much further, Bethesda dropped a teaser trailer for the game. Although the trailer doesn't give much away, fans did notice one thing that may have given away the release date for the game. At the end of the trailer, a character puts on a "76" jacket and a pip-boy. A pip-boy is an interactive arm device worn in the game. On the pip-boy, the date October 27, 2102 is displayed. It is possible that the game will drop on that date, but it's also possible that it is just a date that coincides with the events in the new game. Check out the new trailer below.
