Le développeur de Fallout envisage le retour de la série

Le créateur légendaire de Fallout, Tim Cain, aborde la question persistante de son potentiel retour dans la franchise. Alimentés en partie par le récent succès de la série Amazon Prime Fallout, les fans sont impatients de savoir si Caïn revisiterait le monde qu'il a contribué à construire. S'il apprécie l'enthousiasme, sa décision dépend d'un facteur clé : la nouveauté.

Dans une récente vidéo YouTube, Cain a expliqué son approche en matière de sélection de projets. Il n'est pas motivé par l'argent, mais par la recherche de nouveaux défis créatifs. Une simple reprise de la formule Fallout, même avec des ajouts mineurs comme un nouvel avantage, ne l'intéresserait pas. Il recherche quelque chose de vraiment innovant, une expérience véritablement unique qui repousse ses limites créatives.

La carrière de Caïn illustre cette préférence pour la nouveauté. Il a abandonné Fallout 2 après trois ans de travail sur l'original, choisissant plutôt d'explorer différentes avenues. Cela a conduit à des collaborations impliquant de nouveaux moteurs (le moteur source de Valve sur Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines) et à des aventures dans un territoire thématique inexploré (The Outer Worlds—sa première science spatiale fi-et Arcanum, son premier RPG fantastique).

Par conséquent, même si un retour à Fallout n'est pas impossible, Bethesda devrait présenter une proposition offrant une expérience de développement vraiment nouvelle et passionnante pour capter l'intérêt de Caïn. Le projet devrait offrir quelque chose de très différent, quelque chose au-delà de simples itérations ou ajouts mineurs. Seule une approche véritablement révolutionnaire pourrait le tenter de revenir.

Les rumeurs sur Switch 2 suggèrent un "été de Switch 2" l'année prochaine

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019.
Here’s what’s known:

Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony.
In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work.
There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio.
In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
