According to tweets sent out by a voice actor for Fallout 3 , there may be a new entry coming in Bethesda’s post-apocalyptic RPG series.
The voice actor who plays Galaxy News Radio DJ Three Dog from Fallout 3, Erik Todd Dellums, sent out these tweets earlier today:
To all my #Fallout3 and #ThreeDog fans: There may be more of the Dog coming! Fingers crossed!

What’s even more interesting about these tweets is that Dellums confirmed that he was given permission by Bethesda to break the news:
@toasttherabbit How was that for a tease! I was given permission to release that tease, so fingers crossed.

Rumors and speculation have now surfaced over what these tweets could possibly mean. This might mean gamers can expect a new entry in the main games’ series. IGN reported on the possible location of Fallout 4, which rumors suggested would take place in Boston. An anonymous Reddit user posted a thread that released details about Bethesda’s scouting research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The Reddit user posted this message: “The rumors are true, Fallout 4 will take place in Boston. In case you haven’t heard, Bethesda has recently been scoping out and researching Boston. They also have a strong connection to MIT. I may or may not be an MIT employee. But that’s really all I can say for fear of losing my job. I am telling you it will take place in Boston. Whether you believe me or not, how do you feel about a Fallout Boston?”
Bethesda’s last game in the Fallout series was 2008’s Fallout 3. 2010’s Fallout: New Vegas was developed by Obsidian Entertainment.
Dellums’ tweets may also be alluding to a role in a movie version of the series. A twitter conversation between the voice actor and a follower alluded to that rumor:
@etdellums I know you can’t say but I can state the obvious.. either 3 Dog in the fallout sequel or 3 dog in Fallout Movie. #letTheRumorsFly
