Fallout 2 remake teaser leaves fans feeling reassured

Fans are seemingly thrilled by the news that a remake of Fallout 2 will be scooping up some of the development team who just had to step away from a remake of the first game.

We reported yesterday that a Fallout remake, Fallout: Vault 13, had been cancelled and this meant the team had nowhere to focus their creative outlet.

Well, in a swift change of events, it seems some of that development team will be joining a new project to remake the second game in the Fallout franchise.

Fallout: Vault 13 was cancelled for several reasons including “burnout” and “difficulty in recruiting” but it’s understandable that not all of the team wanted to see production end.

Thankfully, those creators will be working alongside Project Arroyo, which aims to remake Fallout 2.

The two projects actually shared a lot of talent and assets and the news came via Discord that the Project Arroyo team will continue work and collaboration with the Vault 13 crew.

Talking publicly on the Discord forum lead dialogue editor, Jon, said “We're not going anywhere. Our development pathway is completely different.”

When asked if Project Arroyo could benefit from the cancellation of Vault 13, Jon said, “At that point, we may be given permission to incorporate their materials.”

This would mean using the talents from the Vault 13 project to move forward with their own, hopefully finding a common ground to work together.

This has been a bit of good news for the modding community who were upset by the cancellation of the game so long in development.

The Fallout games are so beloved that millions of fans would love to see them remade. However, it’s low on this list for Bethesda who are toiling away on The Elder Scrolls VI and Fallout 5 currently.
