Fallout 4’s entire map leaked

Fallout 4 is coming! In just under a week, many of you will, I suspect, suddenly come down with some sort of mysterious malady that keeps you bedridden – unable to go to work or school. There’s been a wealth of unfortunate leaks before the game sees commercial release; we’ve been inundated with screenshots, videos, lists of the game’s perks and even some bits of the story.

And now you can see the game’s entire map. Captured and stitched together by the chaps at Game Revolution, we can get a glimpse of how big Fallout 4’s post-apocalyptic Boston is. And it certainly looks big. While I won’t attempt to do the maths and embarrass myself once again, it certainly seems like there’s a suitably large area to explore.

Fallout4map

In an interview with Digital Spy earlier this year, Bethesda’s Todd Howard said that Fallout 4’s map is “about the same size” as Skyrim’s.

“I avoid answering that, and I’ll tell you why. If you look at our previous stuff, it’s kind of like that. We don’t actually measure it like that. Because Skyrim is one size, but the mountains take up a lot of space.

That’s not really a game place, it’s in your way, you have to go around it, so we’re not really doing that. In the city, it’s very dense, but there is no load – like in Fallout 3, there’s a load – for areas of the city, we don’t do that. So it’s very dense, the buildings are tall, and a lot of them are open, so you can just walk in and around, so… it’s big. I wouldn’t say, you know, if you played Skyrim, I couldn’t tell you it’s X bigger, so we’re just saying it’s about the same size.”

Fallout 4 is hitting your PCs and new-gen consoles next week.

        What are you talking about? Almost the entire world drives on the right side of the road. That’s one thing Americans got right. Pretty much only former British colonies drive on the left.

            Could be interesting, a true under water system? Hmm. Yeah, I could go for that.

            As long as it is not turn them into question marks

            Batman. Witcher 3. I have more or less had enough of question marks.

      It’s like Skyrim, only there aren’t mountains everywhere so it will feel bigger.

      I’m just ignoring all articles and just scrolling down to the comments for funz. The only person who can overhype it for you is yourself in the end.

    “Looks at Fallout 4 map, looks back at google maps Boston” hmmmmm intersting seems it really is post apocalyptic Boston. Though real Boston is WAY bigger than Fallout 4 Boston.

      To be fair though an actual full sized replica of real life Boston in game would be way to costly

    I remember when Tod said it was about the same as Skyrim. And that was good enough for me. 😀

    I feel sorry for Bethesda, they’ve managed to keep the game secret for so long, only to have the guiding wings of the nuclear missile that is launch day, bliksem off a week before… Such a sad situation…

        When you look at it that way, there is simply no way that this game will not sell well, I’m actually wondering what their pre order figures look like…

    Who actually leaks stuff like maps, screenies etc? Someone from the inside or do they get hacked or what? Also do you make spelling mistakes on purpose or is there no1 that actually reviews the articles before publishing?

      Those would be the guys violating the NDAs, which are supplied with their review copies, unfortunately the level of control on such issues can only be implemented to a certain extent and by the time the leaks are published it is usually too late.

      I don’t blame Geoff for making spelling mistakes, he goes through quite a few articles a day…

      You can swim underwater, theirs even a perk that eliminates you not only gaining radiation from water but also having to hold your breathe.

        True but I really can’t see there being anything of much interest underwater. I much prefer being able to walk places.
