Fallout 4: Boston Rumour, Bethesda’s Lips are Sealed

That pinnacle of reliable data Reddit had been at it again, according to recent reports. A rumour that started on the forum has indicated that Fallout 4 may be set in Boston, Massachusetts.

The rumour was started by an anonymous Reddit user, who may or may not be an employee of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who claimed that Bethesda were in town scoping out the surroundings as a reference point for the next Fallout game. The OP read

“In case you haven’t heard, Bethesda has recently been scoping out and researching Boston. They also have a strong connection to MIT. I may or may not be an MIT employee. But that’s really all I can say for fear of losing my job…  Apologies for the vagueness of this post. It’s not just my job that worries me, but also getting the f**k sued out of me. Bethesda’s contracts are basically foolproof so if they were to discover who I am, or rather, who I got this information from, a few people including myself could get into a lot of trouble.”

Bethesda are yet to confirm the rumour but it would be interesting if they do set Fallout 4 in Boston. Personally I would have liked to see a European setting, as what happens in Europe is not explained in a lot of detail. Are you excited about the prospect of getting a Fallout 4?
