A month after the release of Fallout 4, Bethesda Game Studios is expanding its workforce. In the past, the studio responsible for Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim only worked out of its base in Rockville, Maryland. Now, it’s opening another studio up in Canada -- specifically, in Montreal.
The Canadian branch will be headed by studio director Yves Lachance and already houses 40 developers. However, the company is looking for more positions to fill not only in Montreal, but also in its Rockville location.

It’s unclear as to how the new studio will function in the coming months. Obviously, the team is still working on patching up Fallout 4 with numerous updates, and the new studio can help with the load of fixes with more people on staff. However, the burden of fixing the updates could be pushed to the new team while Todd Howard and the rest of the Rockville-based developers get started on new projects.
