It’s been nearly four months sinceFallout 4launched to tremendous fanfare and by now most players are likely on their third or fourth playthrough. In fact, manyFalloutfans have already taken to expanding their experience throughmods, feeling as though they have seen all that the base game has to offer. However, as it turns out, oneFallout 4secret has yet to be uncovered, or at least no one has come forward to share their discovery.
While speaking at DICE 2016, Bethesda Game Studios Director Todd Howard talked at length aboutFallout 4, the future of BGS, and many other intriguing topics. He even teased that thedeveloper is currently working on three big projects, which was met with tremendous excitement from fans.
In addition to those meatier quotes, Howard also mentioned a small secret inFallout 4that has yet to be discovered. He wouldn’t say much more than that, but did hint that the secret is related to one of the game’s Terminals, in-game computers that typically contain a wealth of backstory and lore, among other things.
Lore is a massive part of each and every Bethesda game, to the point that players typically find new secrets for months after release. But eventually they stop looking at a point, assuming that everything has been discovered.
Obviously, Howard knew what he was doing by teasing the secret, and surelyFallout 4fans are now racing to every Terminal in the hopes of finding it first. But the bigger question isn’t where the secret Terminal can be found, but what it entails. The fact that Howard is willing to call it out in such a public forum suggests this is more than the commonEaster Egg, and could be a hint towards future Bethesda plans.
Perhaps this secret gives players a better idea as to what theupcomingFallout 4DLCwill entail, either in story or scope. Or perhaps it’s a fun tie-in withThe Elder Scrollsfranchise – a way for Bethesda to show some love to their other hugely popular RPG series.
Whatever the case may be, now that the proverbial cat is out of the bag, we don’t expect it will be long before someone comes forward with the secret. IfFallout 4players can take the time tomap the underwater regionsof post-apocalyptic Boston, orfind every Fusion Corein the game, we’re pretty sure finding the right Terminal with the secret shouldn’t be a problem.
Fallout 4is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
