Video game development is not easy. It often happens that the source files of the project can get lost somewhere. This happened to Fallout many years ago.
Today, many Fallout is strongly associated with Bethesda Softworks, but at one time the rights to the series belonged to another company. The first Fallout games were created by Interplay.
Fallout creator Tim Kaine was asked if there’s a chance for remasters or ports of Fallout 1 and 2 for Xbox. The commentator also noted that he heard about the loss of the source code of the games
Tim Kane answered: «Interplay lost the source code in the early 2000s, but they were able to recover the code from an old computer found in a warehouse. Bethesda should have it now».
It turns out that Bethesda may have Fallout content that will come in handy when working on a potential port or remaster.
