Certainly, Xbox could do with some positive news right now. It was only last week that we had to report the news that 3,200 layoffs are coming to Microsoft's Xbox business, with a number of studios being sent packing to new ownership as part of the restructuring work.
We already knew that Xbox's restructuring was focused, at least in part, on reprioritising their biggest and most famous franchises. And with Fallout being the focus of a smash-hit Amazon Prime TV series with its third season on the way, it does make a huge amount of sense to treat that franchise as a top priority for an all-new game.
Given that Bethesda, the main custodians of the Fallout brand, are pretty busy working on The Elder Scrolls 6, it makes perfect sense to get Obsidian working on a Fallout game as a matter of urgency — both companies are now owned by Xbox, after all, and Obsidian did a great job with their previous spin-off entry Fallout: New Vegas (it was one of the major inspirations for the second season of the Fallout show).
The report comes from Jason Schreier of Bloomberg, one of the most trusted journalists in the industry, although the sources that he cites were not willing to be named on the record.
Josh Sawyer, the director of Fallout: New Vegas, is said to be leading this new Fallout game, which is described as "a new title in the Fallout universe", as opposed to a remake of a previous game.

With that in mind, it sounds like Obsidian are the perfect company to put on a Fallout game, so it's nice to see a round peg going into a round hole for once. As we hear more about this project, we'll be sure to let you know. It's probably multiple years away, but you can colour us excited for this one.
