The mysterious phone number that appeared during a commercial break in the Fallout TV series may be more significant than fans thought - Bethesda may be planning a special announcement.

In an episode of the popular Fallout TV series, a commercial airs with a phone number accompanied by the call to action "Call now!" Those who actually dial the number are connected to a line where a man's screams can be heard. After a while, the screaming stops and the call is disconnected.

Bethesda's Secret Message: What Will Happen In 33 Weeks?

In addition to calling the number, you can also send a text message. Those who do so will receive a completely different response compared to a traditional phone call. Instead of a frenzied scream or gibberish, you will receive a civilized message in response to your text.

Among other things, the message states that the next date is 33 weeks away. This hint leads fans to speculate that a major announcement may be in store for us exactly 33 weeks after the release of the Fallout TV series, on November 29th, 2024. Perhaps the announcement will be about the second season of the series, which is reportedly in the works, or a new Fallout game.
