Fallout: Shadow of Boston outed as a hoax by Bethesda

Rumors of a new entry in the Fallout franchise, subtitled Shadow of Boston, have been quashed by Bethesda today.

The publisher was reported to have filed a trademark for the new game amidst rumors that an announcement for Fallout 4 was imminent, possibly at this year’s VGX.

However, writing on Twitter, Bethesda said, "The German trademark filing that’s making the rounds is a hoax. This didn’t come from our offices."

Of course, this doesn’t dismiss the possibility that Fallout 4 could be announced in December, as it’s been a while since we last saw the series. Typically, the franchise alternates with The Elder Scrolls, so it’s Fallout’s ‘turn,’ so to speak.
