Fallout fever is at an all-time high thanks to the new Amazon show, so much so that it's bleeding into other games.
Baldur's Gate 3 fans even added power armour to the Sword Coast .
YouTuber Mojo Swoptops has recreated the iconic Fallout 3 city Megaton in Far Cry 5 Arcade on Xbox Series X, meaning that the entire thing was done in-game without any external tools. The only third-party addition is the Fallout 3 HUD which they created themselves in Photoshop.
The clip starts within the city, so we don't get to see that striking silhouette with a jet engine poking out the front. But inside, things are incredibly accurate. It starts with the slow descent down the dirt, rubble-laden path, leading into the shanty town erected around a nuke festering in radioactive water. The lighting feels a litttle closer to Fallout 4, but there's a tinge of the iconic green filter.
Unfortunately, there's no cowboy wannabe we can poke fun at, but you can make out the walkway to Moriarty's Saloon, the armoury, the Children of Atom's little shack, and the steps to the clinic.
We don't get to see much outside of the centre of the city, but its a pretty compelling glimpse into what Fallout 3 could look like in current-gen. Slap a Vault-Tec sticker on the nuke and voila, you've got yourself a remake.
During the FTC case over the Activision Blizzard King acquisition, internal documents leaked revealing several unannounced Xbox projects, Fallout 3 and Oblivion remasters among them.
Bethesda hasn't commented on the leaks, so it's unclear if these remasters are still in the works, but the studio at least at one point considered bringing Fallout 3 to modern hardware. Maybe one day we'll step foot into a revamped Megaton for ourselves. Question is, will you nuke it this time?
Fallout 3 takes place in a ruined area around Washington D.C. two hundred years after the Great War. In a game met with critical acclaim, you must traverse this wasteland looking for your father, while solving the mystery of his disappearance.
In Far Cry 5, Montana's Hope County is ruled by Joseph Seed, the leader of the Eden's Gate doomsday cult. As a yound police deputy, you must help free the county from Steed and his tyranny.

NVIDIA has started testing and verification of its next-gen cooling modules for its GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" Gaming GPUs.
CPU & PCI IDs of Intel's next-gen Panther Lake CPUs in A0 & B0 stepping have been revealed along with GT3 and GT2 tier iGPUs.
Amazon Prime’s Fallout TV show has supercharged excitement in the Fallout IP, leading to a significant surge in player counts across a variety of Fallout titles on Steam, but also for Fallout London, a fan-created mod for Fallout 4 that may as well be an entirely new entry in the series due to the breadth and scope of the project.
Whether exploring the irradiated monuments of Washington D.C. in Fallout 3 or gambling away your last couple of Caps on The Strip in Fallout: New Vegas, the series' North American setting is an essential piece of the puzzle. And while players have previously been given tantalising glimpses of how the rest of Bethesda's bleak world might be faring, studio head Todd Howard says the plan is to keep the series set in the US.
Fallout's popular TV show is full of mysteries that the show doesn't really explain, ranging from who actually dropped the first atomic bomb, to what the heck the Snake Oil Salesman's serum actually is. Another mystery that the Fallout TV show throws up is the location of the Brotherhood of Steel's headquarters, but one fan thinks they may have figured it out.
A Fallout 3 fan has built the iconic location of Megaton in Far Cry 5 Arcade mode. Many Far Cry 5 fans have used the Arcade tools to build unique things, but this may be the most impressive Fallout 3 build from the game mode.
In a recent interview, Fallout director Todd Howard said that Bethesda plans to «predominately keep» the franchise in the United States and explained his reasoning. Although Howard left the door open for non-US Fallout settings in the future, it seems unlikely given the franchise's established theme.
For years Fallout fans have wondered if a video game in the franchise will ever leave the United States for another country. According to Fallout lore, the nuclear war of 2077 upon which the franchise is based was not localized to the U.S., but a global event. And so, the idea of traipsing astound post-apocalyptic London or even Canada has long-been mooted by fans.
Intel's CEO, Pat Gelsinger, reaffirmed their commitment to the 18A process node with Panther Lake & Clearwater Forest headed for a mid-2025 launch.
