If you’ve found yourself playing old Fallout games after watching Lucy, the Ghoul and Maximus on TV, you’re not alone. We all wanted to spend more time in the wasteland, which resulted in an (un)expected increase in the sales of Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.
If you’ve been watching player counts on Steam charts, you’ve noticed an increase in vault dwellers in Fallout 4 and Fallout 76. We’ve all noticed more players, but no one expected both games to appear on the Top 10 list after being buried at the bottom . According to Matt Piscatella, a video game industry consultant, Fallout 4 ranked 5th on the April charts after ending March in 87th place. Fallout 76 jumped even higher, going from 159th in March to 8th in April!
While Fallout 4 was successful during its initial run, Fallout 76 was an ambitious game with many problems at launch. Although it improved slowly, it would be too late for players to notice if it weren’t for the fall out TV series. This fact makes Fallout 76’s jump from the basement straight to the top even more impressive. Giving a second chance, developers now hope to keep players this time, especially because of a lot of new content of Fallout 76.
You have to give it to Bethesda, because they were ready for this, giving Fallout 4 a next-gen lift and introducing a lot of fresh content to the almost forgotten Fallout 76. There will be no shortage of new content in the future, as the second season of the fall out A TV show is officially in development. This gives Bethesda hope that Starfield will see its glorious return if the Starfield A TV project is coming up. It is, after all, Fallout in space!
