The creators of Fallout 3 and the Elder Scrolls series is moving to mobile, according to a new job listing.

The new posting on the company website reads: "Bethesda Game Studios is looking for experienced iOS programmers for unannounced games." The requirements include, among other things, experience with iOS game development with multiple titles shipped.

Bethesda would not comment on the job posting at this time. Studio head Todd Howard told Kotaku in 2009 he was working on an iPhone project, though nothing has materialized since. Bethesda is also hiring for a next-generation project.

that's odd. Not sure what Bethesda could do with the iOS it might just be something Elder Scrolls or Fallout related but even if it isnt its pretty interesting

oh wow...they realized they couldnt fix the bugs in Skyrim so they're scaling their games down

Ok. Frankly, I don't know whether this is good or bad. It could be the beginning of Angry Birds' successor, or this could be a trainwreck waiting to happen. Either way, I'm officially keeping my eye on Bethesda.

THIS. SUCKS! Why? This is only going to decrease their game quality, Skyrim was just barely passable as a great game.
by TheRealJimReilly Thursday, March 15, 2012 at 11:41 AM

Bethesda has already published iOS games in the past.

It would be cool to see Daggerfall running in my iPod.

...Fallout iOS? Hmmm... If they actually make mobile games worth playing, I'm interested.

Note: "Fallout iOS is just an assumed project...

I guess it's an easy market.

Is there a anyway that this is going to be the original Fallout for iDevices?
by Solidus Warrior Thursday, March 15, 2012 at 12:13 PM

Hm.. Interesting. I hope whatever they make is legit.

This is intresting and everything, I just hope it doesn't affect the release of Skyrim DLC.
