Following major news of a new Fallout game from Obsidian Entertainment, a new report suggests that its release date could be coming sooner than previously thought.

Obsidian Entertainment is reportedly discontinuing development on a sequel to its game Avowed, choosing instead to prioritize the creation of a new Fallout game.

Brandon Adler, a director at Obsidian Entertainment, has publicly criticized individuals "running their mouths" about changes at the studio following recent Xbox layoffs.

While reports suggest more legendary studios are on Xbox's chopping block, Obsidian Entertainment, known for Avowed, The Outer Worlds, and Fallout: New Vegas, is reportedly not at risk of closure.

Reports indicate that Obsidian Entertainment is working on a new Fallout game. This news comes alongside claims that the studio's other anticipated title, 'Avowed 2', has been cancelled.

A sequel to Fallout: New Vegas was reportedly in development at Obsidian Entertainment after the first game's release but was quietly cancelled.
