Revision as of 00:36, 8 December 2013

A Fallout spin-off for the iPhone is a hypothetical title that Fallout 3 developer Bethesda Softworks or its sister studio, id Software, could make in the future.

Project history

According to Bethesda's Todd Howard, several early designs have been pitched and rejected.[1]

On November 5, 2009 John Carmack of Id Software said that, while it's nothing official yet, he has an internal proof of concept made for a Fallout iPhone game. Both Carmack and Bethesda's Todd Howard are fans of the platform and any iPhone game based on Bethesda's IP will likely be made as a joint project between id and Bethesda. Carmack said that he will likely be personally involved in making the game, although currently he is too overloaded with work on other games. "At the very least I'm going to be providing code," he said.[2]

In April 2010, Pocketgamer published a rumour that Bethesda were looking to reactivate the "Fallout Tactics" line with a mobile-based tactical game based in New Vegas[3].
