Nolan and Joy released a statement when the new series was first announced:
Fallout is one of the greatest game series of all time. Each chapter of this insanely imaginative story has cost us countless hours we could have spent with family and friends. So, we’re incredibly excited to partner with Todd Howard and the rest of the brilliant lunatics at Bethesda to bring this massive, subversive, and darkly funny universe to life with Amazon Studios.
Unfortunately, there is no announced release date for the Fallout TV series. So, for those itching to experience the franchise, the most current game is Fallout 76. The game had a rocky start but has gotten better with updates. It is an online RPG that was released on October 23, 2018 and continues to receive expansions.
