Todd Howards of Bethesda is one to keep his mouth zipped about any new information regarding "Fallout 4." He wants to keep it a mystery and just surprise the players with the launching of the game.

In a recent interview with GameRanx, Howards shared: "We get asked a lot, I sort of tell people we're figuring things out. We're taking our time, we're extremely excited about it and the reason we're kind of holding back right now is because we want to wait until it's really there to show it to everybody. We don't want to kind of dribble it out, we'd rather say, you know, 'surprise, boom, here it is.' And make sure that moment of learning about something and seeing for the first time is really... I enjoy those moments for other games so we'd rather hold back and wait and just surprise everybody."

Since last E3, there were a lot of fan-made announcements made and Howards said all these was false. "You know, we're used to that stuff over the years. Our fans are awesome. When they're not making mods they're making fake announcements. So I think everybody gets it and they know and they're willing to give us the time and hopefully they'll love what we're working on," Howards says.

The fans got really excited when an unannounced title from Bethesda was shown in the E3 schedule. Unfortunately, this wasn't "Fallout 4" and even marketing boss Pete Hines said that Bethesda "is not in the habit of announcing when they're going to make an announcement." Moreover, Hines slammed all rumors about the game saying they are "wrong."

This probably explains why there are so many speculations and rumors surrounding the game... because Bethesda is so tight-lipped about "Fallout 4." And until they release new information about the game's development, release dates and what-not, these rumors will continue circulating.
