Fallout 3 was released over five years ago and Bethesda has still yet to say anything about the highly anticipated sequel. Now reports are coming in that Fallout 4 has been trademarked by Bethesda in Europe, giving gamers their first real confirmation that a sequel is in the works. 

As last week came to a close, we brought you word that Bethesda had already launched a teaser website, leading many to believe that Fallout 4 is imminent. The Fallout series had proven themselves to be extremely popular among gamers, leaving an open ended way for you to “build” your character in the way you like it, offering a way to complete the game in a myriad of ways. Well, we are more than pleased to bring you word that Bethesda had already trademarked Fallout 4 in Europe, although we are left scratching our heads as to why Bethesda had only decided to apply for this trademark recently, despite having the property under their care and guidance for years.
