In today's Daily Fix:
Obsidian is reportedly ditching Avowed 2 to work on a new Fallout game. As part of Xbox's big reset, developer Josh Sawyer, who worked as lead designer on fan favorite Fallout: New Vegas, will head a team at Obsidian focused on the next Fallout. The last mainline game, Fallout 4, was released in 2015. However, Bethesda has released the MMO Fallout 76 and helped produce the acclaimed Fallout TV series for Prime Video. In related news, id Software was not spared in the big Xbox reset, with more than half of its full-time staff laid off. The developer was reportedly working on pitches for a new Perfect Dark game, among others. The team had also recently released the well-received Doom: The Dark Ages. And finally, morale at Bethesda is shattered in the wake of Xbox's recent mass layoffs, with the remaining developers saying it will have a "substantial and cascading effect" on The Elder Scrolls 6.
