Fallout 4 is an upcoming game and it is planned to develop Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Soft works. There is no official declaration from Bethesda side, but some analysts are expecting a next-Gen Xbox One and PS4 title establishing the year end of 2014 or early 2015.

Fallout 4 Setting

Fallout 4 will be set in Boston and this area has been referenced in prior Fallout games. In the Fallout 3 side quests The Replicated Man, players meets a scientist named Dr. Zimmer, who comes from The Commonwealth, a "war-ravaged quagmire of violence and despair" where he notes he and his colleagues created androids that have escaped and are running wild. Zimmer references The Institute, which is presumably a post-apocalyptic version of MIT. Another document makes reference to the Commonwealth Minutemen. The website, thesurvivor2299.com, has been registered by Bethesda. Morse code beeps in the background, which translates to "11-12-13".

Fallout 3 took place in a war-ravaged version of Washington DC, with expansions adding Pittsburgh and Maryland, so a return to the New England area is not an unusual choice. Follow-up Fallout: New Vegas was developed by Obsidian in 2010 and was set in a future version of Nevada.
