The FTC allegedly leaks Bethesda’s future game lineup, including Fallout 3 remaster
destructoid.comIn what may be one of the most notable bombshells of the year, the US Federal Trade Authority appears to have accidentally leaked Zenimax Media’s mind-bogglingly comprehensive game release schedule. Notable examples include Fallout 3 remastered, TES 4: Oblivion remastered, and Dishonored 3!

However, the odds are good that at least some of the referenced, but unannounced games are still in production, even if they did probably get pushed back by a few years.
