In 2024, Bethesda released the Fallout TV series on Amazon Prime. The series’ success affected the franchise drastically, jumping up the player rate for most of the games in the series. It also received several Emmys, including Outstanding Emerging Media Program and Outstanding Music Supervision.

In the interview, Howard revealed that Fallout 76‘s player base has reached 20 million players as a result of the success of the Fallout TV series. According to Howard, because of the series, “Depending on the Fallout game, you’re looking at a 4-6x increase in daily players, which is beyond anything I’ve ever seen in my 30 years of doing this.”
