It’s been almost two years since Bethesda sent players back to the wasteland in Fallout 4. And while we’re eagerly awaiting the first glimpse of Fallout 4 VR later this year, there are new plans to expand the Fallout experience in tabletop gaming.
Via Polygon, Bethesda and Modiphius Entertainment are teaming up for Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, a new miniatures wargame that will feature solo missions as well as player vs. player and co-op options for multiple players. Thus far, very few details have been revealed about Wasteland Warfare, but the first teaser image from the game was posted on Facebook over the weekend. In that pic, we can see that the game appears to be taking its cues from Fallout 4, with super mutants, and fighters in T-60 power armor. There’s even a Nuka Cola machine.
Presumably the game will also feature other icons from the Fallout universe, but it’s unclear where it fits within the narrative of the game. Modiphius Entertainment has a good track record of bringing its games to life through successful Kickstarter campaigns, but it’s not currently known if Fallout: Wasteland Warfare will also go the Kickstarter route or if Modiphius will simply go straight-to-retail with one of the biggest video game brands. An official site for the game has also been launched with a new piece of artwork from the game, and a very familiar canine companion.
