With the recent release of the Prime series Fallout, the game series upon which its based has seen a huge upsurge in players. All of the games in the series, from the original top-down Fallout to MMORPG Fallout 76 to the mobile title Fallout Shelter, have reportedly gotten thousands of new players interested in breaking free from the Vaults themselves. How did developer Bethesda Game Studios handle this? According to Jonathan Rush, creative director at Bethesda Game Studios, the team prepared for it well in advance.
GamesBeat spoke with Rush about whether the developers anticipated the influx of players and how they prepared for them. According to Rush, Bethesda wanted to make the games as easy to access as possible: “We knew viewers would want more Fallout after experiencing the awesome new story from the series. To make it easier for prospective players to hop into any of the Fallout games we offered free trial periods and they’re essentially all available on Xbox Game Pass.”
