The new official Interplay web site is listing a new office located in Orange County, CA where they will be producing the Fallout themed MMO. While Bethesda Softworks owns the rights to the Fallout franchise, Interplay retained the right to produce a Fallout MMO. Interplay has given this project the code name “V13” perhaps based on a Vault 13 concept.
