‘Fallout 4’ Is Apparently Happening, Gets Teased By Three Dog Voice Actor

It's been a long time coming, and we all knew it was going to happen, but Fallout 4 is apparently a thing. It's been rumored to be in development for some time now, with some of its earliest rumors being traced back to Reddit about a year ago when a poster who claimed to be from M.I.T. said that game developers from Bethesda were scouting Boston for the setting in which Fallout 4 would take place.

Some of the colleges surrounding Boston, like Harvard and MIT, would be a perfect place to set the game due to the VaultTec project's likelihood of having a few vaults situated in the vicinity of America's most prestigious centers of learning. As the birthplace of the American Revolution, it'd also allow for an interesting post-apocalyptic take on the foundation of a new United States of America.

Today, the voice actor of ThreeDog, Erik Todd Dellums, teased a return of his role as ThreeDog in an upcoming project over his Twitter account.

He wrote: "To all my #Fallout3 and #ThreeDog fans: There may be more of the Dog coming! Fingers crossed!"

"How was that for a tease! I was given permission to release that tease, so fingers crossed."

When Dellums did not clarify whether he was referring to the development of Fallout 4 or something else, he decided instead to retweet someone who suggested that ThreeDog would be in the Fallout sequel, who jokingly added that it could be a movie.

The likelihood that Fallout would be turned into a movie anytime soon is slim given Bethesda's reluctance to license it out to any Hollywood studio. Furthermore, the chance that ThreeDog would feature in such a film—especially as a voice actor—is even more unlikely as casting wouldn't even take place long after the script has been written and pre-production is in place.

With that in mind, there's a strong chance that Dellums is referring to Fallout 4 and nothing else. Given that the character itself is owned by Bethesda, it's unlikely that he's referring to a fan-made project or anything of that nature, either.

We'll keep our eyes peeled for any further developments about the game.
