John Carpenter–best known for his legendary horror films like The Thing and Halloween–is evidently big into gaming, and says one of the games he’s most looking forward to at the moment hasn’t even been officially revealed yet.
“I have loved the Fallout universe for years so anything they do next, I’m ready for it,” Carpenter said in a recent interview (via IGN).
Carpenter listed the next Fallout game–which currently has no title and no release date–as one of three games he’s most excited to play. Notably, the other two games that made the list–Saber Interactive’s upcoming shooter John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando and Illfonic’s upcoming Halloween–are both adaptations of Carpenter’s work, whereas Fallout 5 obviously is not.
