Could "Fallout 4" release date announcement finally happen during Bethesda Game Studios' first conference at E3 2015 Conference?
While the giant gaming studio has kept everything shrouded in secrecy, Den of Geek speculated that there is a big chance that a major announcement such as game titles release dates could be announced during the highly anticipated event.
"We're hosting our first-ever E3 Showcase in Hollywood, CA on June 14th and we've saved some seats just for you, our fans," Bethesda's blog stated. "Feel like a celebrity by attending our most exciting event yet, live and in-person! Keep an eye out - in the coming months we'll be sharing details on how you can register to attend."
Adding, "Can't make it out to LA to join us? Don't worry, we have you covered. On Twitch.TV/Bethesda, you'll be able to tune in on 6/14 and watch every moment live!."
Fans and experts are also speculating that Bethesda's rumored renewal of the trademark of "Fallout" Pip Boy devices is a major hint given by the gaming company that a "Fallout 4" release date could be happening anytime soon.
Bethesda vice president, Pete Hines, even clarified rumors claiming that the renewal was a hoax, however he did not mention anything about the "Fallout 4" release date.

The lead designer of the "Fallout" franchise, Josh Sawyer, however revealed that everyone is busy working on the fourth installment of the gaming title, while sharing major details about its progress.
"A lot of stuff I did in New Vegas was to try and make choices feel more impactful and meaningful and to challenge the player," he said. "Some people want to go through the wasteland like a tourist, which is fine - they don't really want it to be super-difficult. They want it to be interesting and engaging, and they want to see a lot of neat stuff and go through a cool story. And that's cool."
"Personally I like things to be a little more challenging," he added, "And there's a segment of players that also want [that]. I don't have any doubt in this."
Adding, "I hope Bethesda continues to make everything very mod friendly. How they've worked with the community is... the mod community for Bethesda's games is amazing. I hope they continue to support them because it's really cool."
"Elders Scrolls 6," another highly anticipated game under the gaming company, on the other hand, is speculated to be release first before "Fallout 4" based on the teaser that Bethesda Softworks released at CES 2015.
