Fallout 4 GDC Talk To Focus On Tools For Building Big, Varied Worlds Quickly
Bethesda will be in attendance at GDC to talk a bit more about Fallout 4’s development. The focus will be on how the studio created a number of unique environments in a relatively short amount of time.
The session, titled “Fallout 4’s Modular Level Design,” will feature senior designer Joel Burgess and lead artist Nathan Purkeypile. The two will discuss how modular tools allow them to create complex, varied open worlds.
They’ll also discuss how the process can be applied to smaller teams. GDC will be held in San Francisco from March 14 through 18.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
