Fallout: New Vegas Set for Release

According to Kotaku, the next big Fallout game, Fallout: New Vegas will be released for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox in the northern hemisphere's Fall. This means it should be hitting South Africa near the end of the year in our last quarter.

New Vegas was announced by publisher Bethesda Softworks last year and is being developed by Obsidian Entertainment, a studio that consists of many developers that worked on earlier Fallout games.

Little has been released about the story as of yet - the trailer only shows a few things. Players will be able to see that it’s set in Las Vegas and in the future as well.

Pete Hines, Bethesda Softworks head of marketing and communications, told Kotaku that the game would be another role-playing game (RPG) experience. Hines also says the game is not a sequel to Fallout 3 but should be seen as another story in the Fallout world.
