There are now fairly strong suggestions that Bethesda will one day have Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas remasters to put out, but you shouldn't expect them to launch soon, and especially not in relation to any current countdown timers.
Off the back of last year's Oblivion Remastered "exceeding internal goals and expectations", Windows Central suggests the two Fallout games from the PS3 generation will be subject to similar treatment. With the Fallout TV show website donning countdown timers and this week's Xbox Developer Direct, there has been hope the two re-releases will come out soon.
However, according to sources speaking to the outlet, it's claimed neither one is "imminent". Jez Cordon of the website believes Fallout 3 will be out first, followed by New Vegas, but again, don't expect them to come out soon.
Should they eventually arrive, it's expected the two RPGs will subscribe to a similar structure as Oblivion Remastered, where an Unreal Engine 5 enhancement is placed over the original title. There are also suggestions of Fallout 5 being greenlit at Bethesda.
Are you happy to wait for upgraded versions of Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas? Let us know in the comments below.

This needs to be studied for years to come .
Don't worry everyone. I'm sure that they're using all that development time to ensure that there's as many bugs as possible at launch.
To the surprise of nobody.
Bethesda dangling carrots in front of us, but I think we're too busy playing and anticipating the current crop of games to give a monkey's nipple about what they're doing. Rumours shouldn't be entertained because they're not factual.
I mean, the point of a shadow drop is that you don't see it coming.
Is oblivion remastered patched and fixed yet? Maybe fix the games you got out already before you start thinking about shadow dropping any more broken messes.
If they're another one of these UE5/Creation Engine amalgamation remakes, I'm not interested.
Fallout new vegas is one of my all time favorites, but I have plenty of other games to play until it comes out. I’ll be patient.
I love fallout games, but I'm not really feeling the need to replay the older ones. I just want 5. I personally wouldn't care too much if it hasn't advanced much gameplay wise as long as the setting and story is new.
I just want a pretty reminder of when the series was one of my favorites. It's so far gone after 4 and 76, I doubt 5 will do it for me either.
What is the countdown timer for?
I know it won't happen, but I want Fallout: Hong Kong, and it tells the story of China after the war. They could incorporate British influence in the region into the story as well.
Anyone with any business sense should have anticipated this. It’s the timeworn strategy of releasing a smash hit tv show, then waiting until after it’s off-air and consumer interest has fizzled before releasing tie-in material. They can’t lose!
In the Meantime watch them Shadow drop a Morrowind remake out of nowhere.
Not surprised. I never expect much from Bethesda.
I guess my question is this - what exactly is Bethesda doing these days? I understand that Todd is angry because Microsoft now owns him, but you still have games to make. You can't not make games forever.
I love Fallout 3 & New Vegas, but as they'll likely have even more glitches than the originals without fixing old ones, I can wait for a decent sale.
