Fallout 4 Release Date Announced for PS4, Xbox One, PC

At the Bethesda E3 2015 press conference tonight, Todd Howard introduced the first Fallout 4 gameplay walkthrough.

In the videos, you’ll get a look at the character creation (for males and females), the dog, Boston, gameplay, and much more.

Not wanting to spoil the story after the bombs drop, Howard said you emerge two hundred years later as the sole survivor of Vault 111.

There’s also a Pip Boy Edition for Fallout 4, coming with its own Pip Boy that you can put your smartphone in and use as a second-screen.

As well, you can download the new iOS game Fallout Shelter from the App Store tonight.

The Fallout 4 release date was also confirmed as November 10 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
