But best title ever!
Rock, Paper, Shotgun has talked with Todd Howard about the possibility of a Fallout 4 announcement in the near future. Unsurprisingly, Howard isn't particularly willing to give specifics, but it seems it might take a while longer before we hear about the title:
So there you have it, as usual Bethesda is taking its time with announcements. Does it mean that they offloaded Fallout 4 to Obsidian? Most likely not. Does that actually mean Bethesda hasn't figured out what to do with the title and their main team is too busy helping on The Elder Scrolls Online? Hardly, and I was a bit surprised to see that suggestion in the article's comments. There's ample evidence the game is in production, and Bethesda made it clear Fallout 3 wasn't a one-off back during its development so I really doubt their new title is a new IP.
Moving aside from Fallout 4 for a second, this other snippet implies Bethesda might put more energy into their PC ports in the future:
“We don’t [have a timeframe for our next game announcement],” he said, “but I think it’s gonna be a while.”
“We’ve gotten fairly used to all the questions and curiosity over the years. Everyone wants information. Right now, we’re just trying to figure out which of our ideas are going to stick and finding an appropriate time to talk about it.”

“PC is resurgent,” enthused Howard. “Skyrim did better than we’ve ever done on PC by a large, large number. And that’s where the mods are. That feeds the game for a long time. And it’s exciting that the new consoles are very PC-like. That opens up avenues for us going forward to do things that we’ve wanted to do in the past. There are kind of random ideas we’re working on right now, and it’s like, ‘Wow, I think there’s potential here to do some really cool stuff.’”
