An Xbox executive may have accidentally let slip that a new game for the Bethesda series is in the works.

An interview suggests a new Fallout game might be on its way soon

While discussing the Xbox Game Pass, the post-apocalyptic series was mentioned. While nothing has been confirmed by Bethesda, having Fallout mentioned alongside other confirmed upcoming titles certainly leads to speculation.

In a recent interview with GamesRadar+, Ben Decker , Xbox's Head of Services, was discussing games joining Game Pass on release, specifically mentioning Forza, Halo, and Fallout.

Halo and Forza are confirmed to be working on, so not a surprise, but Fallout's appearance essentially confirms that a new title in the series is on the way.

Fifty-five percent of those surveyed said the main reason that they joined [Game Pass] is to get new games at release - that day one content. That's why we made the investments that we have. We have 23 studios across Xbox and Bethesda, working on Halo, Forza, Fallout, and new IP that we haven't even talked about yet that is gonna blow your mind. We can deliver all of that into Game Pass on day one.

This statement not only shows the new Fallout game, and a new IP that hasn't been disclosed, but also that Xbox is committed to getting titles onto Game Pass as soon as possible. Even without a new Fallout, it seems like Game Pass is gaining more and more benefits.

With E3 on the horizon, we will hopefully soon see something official about this new Fallout and the new IP.

Nintendo, Xbox and more studios will be part of E3 2021 online event

The event take will take place between June 12 and June 15.
