Fallout: New Vegas - Teaser & Release Date

Post by Shir'le E. Illios »

In a bid to not be horribly behind the times here's a bit of news hot off the digital presses that you might find interesting.

It seems that Bethesda just released a teaser trailer and target release date for the Obsidian-developed Fallout: New Vegas. [url=http://www.gametrailers.com/video/debut ... 6:2zy3fo35]Here's the trailer[/url:2zy3fo35]:

FALLOUT®: NEW VEGAS™ SET FOR AUTUMN 2010 RELEASE

Official Teaser Trailer for Fallout: New Vegas Revealed Today

February 4, 2010 (London, UK) – Bethesda Softworks®, a ZeniMax® Media company, today announced that Fallout®: New Vegasâ„¢, the next chapter in the critically-acclaimed Fallout franchise, will be available in Autumn 2010. The game is currently in development at Obsidian Entertainment for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and Games for Windows. The first trailer, which provides new insight into the game, is now available at fallout.bethsoft.com.

Fallout: New Vegas, the follow-up to Fallout® 3 – the 2008 Game of the Year – brings this beloved franchise to a location only Fallout could do justice: Vegas. Fallout: New Vegas takes all the action, humor, and post-apocalyptic grime and grit of this legendary series, and raises the stakes.

To view the Fallout: New Vegas trailer and for more information on the game, please visit the official Fallout site: fallout.bethsoft.com. Fallout: New Vegas will be featured in magazine cover stories around the world in the month of February. Check the official site for updated details.[/quote:2zy3fo35]
The trailer doesn't show a lot, just a tease similar to the first Fallout 3 trailer. But that's what teaser trailers are for, right? To be a tease. :p

People have noted that the flag that you see in the trailer is the flag of the [url=http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/New_Calif ... c:2zy3fo35]New California Republic[/url:2zy3fo35], which is supposedly meaningful to Fallout aficionados. Having played the three main Fallout games (though I haven't finished the third one yet) I honestly don't recall much about the NCR; been too long ago.

Anyway, looks great. :)
