The next MTG release is Universes Beyond: FALLOUT which is scheduled to hit shelves on March 8, 2024.
What Is Fallout?
Fallout is a well-known and highly regarded media franchise that consists primarily of a series of post-apocalyptic role-playing video games. The series is set in a world that has been devastated by nuclear war, and the games are known for their open-world gameplay, dark humor, and the ability to make choices that affect the game’s story and world.
The original Fallout game was released in 1997 and was developed by Interplay Entertainment and its division, Black Isle Studios, with Tim Cain as one of the key figures behind its creation. The game was praised for its unique setting, deep role-playing mechanics, and branching narrative.
The Fallout series has since seen several sequels and spin-offs, including popular titles such as Fallout 2, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4, and Fallout 76. Each game explores different regions of the post-apocalyptic United States, with a focus on survival, exploration, and the interaction with various factions and characters.
Fallout’s retro-futuristic aesthetic, inspired by 1950s American culture, and the iconic Pip-Boy device are some of the distinctive elements that have contributed to the franchise’s strong identity and enduring popularity.
