Over the weekend, industry veteran John Gonzalez rejoined Xbox studio Obsidian Entertainment, after almost 15 years away from the team. Back in the day, Gonzalez was the lead writer on Fallout: New Vegas, and now rejoins the team as Creative Director on a different project.
Bethesda's 2010 Fallout spinoff has such reverence in the community that pretty much straight off the bat, Gonzalez has had to remind folks that he is not directing a 'New Vegas 2', at least for now. At the time of posting, it hasn't been revealed which Obsidian project the vet will be working on.
Of course, we do know that Obsidian is working on both Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2 right now for Xbox, with some other projects likely being spun up over there as well. The Microsoft team is a very busy one - often working on multiple projects simultaneously and releasing them in quick succession as well.
Anyway, for now, all we know is that Gonzalez is "back to Obsidian for exciting times" and that Fallout: New Vegas 2 isn't on his to-do list just yet. If you're excited for your next Obsidian experience on Xbox, Avowed launches in just a few weeks' time on February 18th - or potentially even earlier.
