As if we needed more confirmation that Amazon’s Fallout series generated a lot of interest in Bethesda’s video game franchise, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella confirmed that the games saw a huge spike of continued traffic since the show released, including Fallout 76.
During this week’s Microsoft earnings call, Nadella said that “hours played on [Xbox] Game Pass for the Fallout franchise increased nearly 5x quarter-over-quarter” following the Fallout series debut. The Xbox Game Pass includes every title in the franchise.
Hopefully for the Fallout series, the good times will continue to roll when the second season of the TV series arrives, which is currently in pre-production. Back in April, Fallout 76 saw over a million players log in over the course of a single day.
