Since its inception in 1997, Fallout's vision of a post-nuclear society and landscape has become one of the most widely known depictions in all of gaming and even beyond. With its retro-future Americana-centric culture and mix of morbidity and comedy, Fallout has become synonymous with the post-apocalyptic genre. Across its entries, players have emerged from various Vaults on both coasts of the country to explore and attempt to survive in the ravaged wasteland. Although developer Bethesda is currently focusing mostly on supporting its newest IP, Starfield, as well as continuing work on the highly awaited The Elder Scrolls 6, Fallout 5 is expected to eventually follow.
