Josh Sawyer, the director of Fallout New Vegas back in the day, said that he would see himself working on the series again in the future.

During a Kinda Funny Games interview, the Obsidian design director said that working on Fallout: New Vegas was super fulfilling and fantastic, and was also a crazy development because it was only 18 months.

“I love Fallout, I love the setting, I could see myself working in it again, but you know, we’ll see where the future takes me. 

I’m not really sure,” he responded. “I haven’t thought about it in quite a while because again, it kind of came into my life and then floated away. In the past, I’ve said you know people have talked about New Orleans. I do think California or the Midwest would also be very interesting.

“I’m a big believer in finding things that, obviously I have to be passionate about it as a director, but also that the team is really excited about, and also that works within the larger idea of the property.”

He also brought up his latest game, Pentiment, as a comparison point since it’s a way smaller game compared to the Fallout franchise, thus he has to take into account the game’s bigger vision.

“Working on something like Pentiment, which is just its own thing in the middle of nowhere, I can kind of make decisions more or less however I want, but when it’s part of a larger IP and franchise it has to kind of work within a larger vision of ‘what is Fallout?’ and I don’t get to decide everything about that, it’s not my thing.

“So yeah, I think there’s a lot of cool places in the US. A lot of people have also talked about what about Fallout in other parts of the world, I think those are interesting as well. I don’t know, I think there’s lots of cool opportunities. It really depends on what the moment is and what the team looks like.”
