While some fans are excited about the prospect of new content for Fallout 76, others are using this opportunity to voice their ******* for a return to the series’ single-player roots:

I love Fallout, but I do not care about an MMO. Please start work on Fallout 5 instead. A single player Fallout game appeals to a much broader audience.

The sentiment is echoed by many, with some fans even going as far as to suggest that Bethesda should allocate more resources to the development of Fallout 5:

We really don’t really care about 76, guys. Get some more devs and get to work on FO5 so we don’t have to wait until PS8

It’s clear that while Fallout 76 has its dedicated playerbase, there’s a significant portion of the fanbase that’s eager for a new single-player installment in the series. And with Elder Scrolls 6 still a ways off, could Fallout 5 be the perfect project for Todd Howard and his team to tackle next?

Suddenly, the screen fades to ******. A familiar voice comes on, and the camera pans to reveal none other than Todd Howard himself. He’s got that signature twinkle in his eye, and he’s about to drop a bombshell:

I’m sure you’re all enjoying the Fallout Day Broadcast, but I have one more thing to share with you. We’ve been working on something special, something that we know you’ve all been waiting for.

That’s right, Fallout 5 is in development, and we can’t wait to share more with you soon!

The internet would explode with excitement, and fans would be left speculating about what the future holds for the Fallout series. Would we be returning to the Capital Wasteland, or perhaps exploring a brand-new location? What new features and gameplay mechanics could we expect?
