Fallout 3 and New Vegas Are Reportedly Getting Remasters And Fans …

First surfacing in leaked Microsoft-FTC court documents back in 2023, the Fallout 3 project was listed alongside an Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remaster – which shockingly materialized as a shadow-drop earlier this year, racking up millions of players in days. Now, with Oblivion Remastered proving the formula’s bankability, insiders like YouTube leaker NateTheHate and Windows Central’s Jez Corden are going on record: it’s real, it’s planned, and it’s coming “eventually.”

NateTheHate, a Tier 1-rated source in leak circles known for nailing Nintendo hardware reveals, responded directly to fan speculation on X: “Fallout 3 Remaster is a planned release, yes. I’m not certain of a reveal window for it, however.” Corden, in a deep-dive preview of Xbox’s 2026 lineup, was even more bullish: “We are eventually getting a Fallout 3 remake in the vein of Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, as well as Fallout: New Vegas on top.” This dual-threat rumor mill has exploded, with outlets like Vice, Insider Gaming, and GameRant piling on confirmation.

But what does “in the vein of Oblivion Remastered” even mean for fans? The Oblivion project, handled by external studio Virtuos, layered stunning Unreal Engine 5 visuals over the original Gamebryo engine’s core gameplay – think photorealistic Tamriel with upgraded lighting, animations, and draw distances, but faithful mechanics intact. No full rewrite, just a glow-up that preserved the janky charm while making it palatable for modern rigs. Expect the same for Fallout 3: the irradiated ruins of Washington D.C., from the Citadel to Megaton, reborn in next-gen fidelity. Leaks suggest all DLC – Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta – bundled from day one, potentially with quality-of-life tweaks like improved V.A.T.S. targeting or faster load times.

As for those tantalizing “features even Fallout 4 doesn’t have”? Details are scarce – insiders aren’t spilling combat overhauls or settlement-building rivals yet. However, Fallout 3‘s legendary RPG depth, moral ambiguity (purify Project Purity or let the bombs flow?), and faction intrigue often eclipse FO4‘s shooter focus in fan debates. Speculation runs wild: power armor as drivable mechs sans crafting grind, expanded companion AI, or weather systems amplifying the Capital Wasteland’s grim atmosphere – elements FO4 streamlined but arguably diluted. Reddit threads buzz with hopes for FO4-style gunplay grafted onto FO3‘s superior writing, but purists warn against Bethesda “dumbing it down.”

The timing couldn’t be riper. Fallout Season 1 on Prime Video exploded player counts – FO4 peaked at over 44,000 concurrent Steam users post-premiere – and Season 2 just dropped, fueling a mysterious countdown timer on Amazon’s Fallout hub ending February 4, 2026. Fans prayed for a shadow-drop reveal, but Corden shut it down: “That’s not what the TV show’s countdown timer is for.” Eyes now turn to Xbox’s Developer Direct later this month or a summer showcase. FTC docs pegged FO3 two years post-Oblivion (pushing 2027), but COVID delays and TV synergy could accelerate it.

Bethesda boss Todd Howard has coyly nodded to the demand. In a December 2025 Dexerto chat, he said: “We see it [remaster requests], we’re working on a whole bunch of stuff.” Meanwhile, New Vegas – Obsidian’s 2010 cult hit – joins the fray, potentially bridging to Fallout 5 (still years out). Xbox’s strategy? Milk the IP while Starfield and Elder Scrolls VI simmer.

Fan reactions? Pure Nuka-Cola chaos. X is ablaze: “@ThreatLlama” gushes, “Fallout 3 is what got me into the franchise… Would you play a Fallout 3 remastered?” “@Pirat_Nation” tallies 10K+ likes on remake art.<post:88></post:88> Purists fret Oblivion-style bugs (stuttering, unpatched glitches), while newbies from the show salivate. Modders like Capital Wasteland in FO4 prove demand, but official polish could lure millions.

Skeptics point to Bethesda’s track record – FO76‘s rocky launch, Starfield’s mixed reception – but Oblivion‘s success (4M players fast) and the TV’s halo effect scream greenlight. Pricing rumors hover at $49.99, Game Pass day-one likely.

No word from Bethesda or Microsoft yet – classic radio silence. But with Xbox Showcase whispers and Season 2 hype cresting, the Vault door creaks open. Will the Lone Wanderer rise again, pistol cocked, in 4K glory? Or is this just pre-war propaganda? Stay tuned – war never changes, but graphics sure do.
