Could This Finally Be A Teaser For Fallout 4?

It’s no secret that Fallout 3 is probably one of my favourite RPG’s of all time, and with good reason. A fantastically realised world with some interesting turn-based gameplay made the Wasteland trotting adventure something rather spectacular, not matched be the New Vegas sequel that followed.

Fans of the series have been waiting ever so patiently for news on a possible fourth entry, with a few leaks from voice actors from the third title suggesting Bethesda is hard at work. Now it seems the hype train has already begun.

Users on NeoGAF have uncovered a teaser website called TheSurvivor2299.com, which just so happens to belong to ZeniMax Media, the owners of the Fallout IP. The website features a pretty large countdown that is set to end on December 11th, but that’s not the reason why some believe this is connected to the Fallout universe.

Of course, there’s the blatant reference to a year number in the title, with 2299 being just the right amount in the future to possibly be connected to the Fallout universe. Then, of course, comes some of the information dug up by those who just had to know more, which has revealed some javascript code that pointed at Fallout 4.

However, the teaser website also fails to show any ZeniMax Media or Bethesda logos, something which has been present in past teaser websites. The server the website is hosted on also doesn’t link up to previous servers that ZeniMax has used, but that really is no real indication of whether this is legitimate or not.

So for now, take it with a pinch of salt, but considering how quiet Bethesda has been lately I wouldn’t be too surprised by a Fallout, or similar, announcement really soon.
