Overview
- Tom Mustaine said he wants more surprise same-day launches at Bethesda, aligning with Todd Howard’s long-stated preference for short reveal-to-release windows.
- He argued the tactic fits modern short attention spans and can focus online attention by making games instantly available.
- Mustaine emphasized he has no idea what project might use the approach next, framing it as a hope rather than a plan.
- Bethesda previously shadowdropped Hi‑Fi RUSH and Oblivion Remastered, though Oblivion had leaked beforehand and later drew reports of performance problems.
- Separately, Fallout 76’s Burning Springs update arrives December 2, adding Walton Goggins’ character the Ghoul from the Prime Video series.
