In a post-apocalyptic Texas, the Alamo could serve as a central hub or pivotal location within the game world.

Imagine the crumbling walls of the Alamo fortified by survivors, its grounds transformed into a bustling settlement teeming with activity.

New Orleans

If Fallout 76 has proven anything, its that Bethesda is not afraid to conquer an entire state. A statement made every year, this would truly be the largest Fallout of all time. The typical trend followed by every good title in the series is an area surrounded by rich historical opportunities for the player to explore. Enter The Alamo, the perfect opportunity to dive deeper into the altered american history of the in game timeline, the opportunity for factions such as The Brotherhood or Enclave to play a huge presence or even the chance of a new Texas based faction to drive the man story. If that’s not enough for historical presence, we can combine Bethesda’s love of space and Sci Fi culture in the famous Huston International Space Station. With a map as big as this one the possibilities are endless! Just watch out for the Radscorpians and mutated armadillos.

We’ve all seen the imagery, June 3rd 2072: “U.S. to annex Canada!”. In the post war timeline the annex of Canada was front page news, in the post war present… not so much. Hardly mentioned in the series, the Fallout faithful are dying to know what is going on in the nuclear north. With the potential for new creatures, factions and government systems, Canada provides a new fresh environment with an open platform for new lore. Just imagine patrolling the wastes and bashing a few ghouls with your trusty hockey stick!

Hawaii

Pokemon has done it, Southpark has done it, it’s high time Fallout made the jump. Hawaii provides the unique environment nowhere else can. Being apart from the continental United States provides fresh environment and new opportunities for some serious tropical mutations. Exploring the lore of Hawaiian history a well as the secluded map would provide hours of captivating game play. Not to mention the possibility for offshore DLC like Point Lookout.

Back 2 Vegas

The most requested game in the community. More than a Fallout 5, more than 76 DLC, Fallout New Vegas 2 has been one of the most talked about possibilities for years now. A choice with multiple options, the sequel to the fan favorite game could pick up after the events of the first (assuming one of the ending choices is deemed to correct lore friendly ending) following a brand new protagonist living and surviving in the environment established by the player of the first title. However, a more realistic and lore friendly story to tell may be a prequel. The story of the journey behind the platinum chip, perhaps the true backstory of Benny or even the story of how Caesar rose to power. There are numerous routes to take when it comes down to it, unfortunately if anything should come from the New Vegas titles, more likely than not it would be a simple remaster. Hey, I’d still buy it.
