Starfield developer Bethesda is currently working on a new mobile game, though it’s unclear which of its famous franchises it’s based on.Speaking to Lex Fridman on the latest episode of his podcast, Bethesda executive producer and Starfield director Todd Howard revealed that the Elder Scrolls and Fallout developer has another mobile game in the works.Talking about the conceptual differences between designing a console game versus one for mobile, Howard said plainly: “Well we’ve done a few things, and we have a new mobile game that we’re working on that we haven’t announced yet that I am in love with.”He didn’t give anything else away regarding its genre, release date, and so on, but did allude that it would be a more in depth experience rather than a game intended to be played in short bursts.”We have found with our games, particularly Fallout shelter, people will sit there for an hour or two. They will just sit there and play it. Large numbers of people will play it for hours a day.”Fallout Shelter was released in 2015 as a construction and management simulation game where players take over a Vault and expand it over time, but the developer hasn’t done much else in the mobile arena since.It’ll likely be a while before we hear more about this new game as it hasn’t been officially announced by Bethesda. Fallout Shelter was released around the same time as Fallout 4, however, so if it’s a tie-in to Bethesda’s space RPG Starfield, it’ll perhaps be released around the same time next year.Every IGN Fallout ReviewRyan Dinsdale is an IGN freelancer and acting UK news editor.
