After Oblivion, Fallout 3 and New Vegas Remasters Face a Harsh Truth

Following in the footsteps of the incredibly successful Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda has now officially confirmed that remasters of Fallout 3 and New Vegas are both in active development. As exciting as that is, it's clear that Bethesda has some lessons to learn from 2025's most surprising release, as it's got quite the long shadow; it sold enormously, played beautifully, and it's a game that—going by the numbers—almost nobody actually finished. Indeed, according to Steam, only around eight percent of players have earned the achievement for completing the main questline of Oblivion Remastered, and that's a problem the remasters of Fallout 3 and New Vegas must fix.
