Bethesda Game Studios is confirmed to hold its first conference this year at E3 Convention.

The announcement immediately fueled speculations that "Fallout 4" release date would finally be revealed, Den of Geek noted.

The giant gaming studio company kept everything under wraps when it comes to issuing details about the rumored "Fallout 4" release date but with its first ever conference happening at E3, a major announcement could definitely be on its way.

"We're hosting our first-ever E3 Showcase in Hollywood, CA on June 14th and we've saved some seats just for you, our fans," Bethesda's blog stated. "Feel like a celebrity by attending our most exciting event yet, live and in-person! Keep an eye out - in the coming months we'll be sharing details on how you can register to attend."

Adding, "Can't make it out to LA to join us? Don't worry, we have you covered. On Twitch.TV/Bethesda, you'll be able to tune in on 6/14 and watch every moment live!."

Previously, Bethesda was rumored to have renewed the trademark for "Fallout's" Pip Boy devices, to which fans immediately speculated that this might be a hint from the gaming company.

Bethesda vice president, Pete Hines, however quickly clarified the rumor claiming that it was not a hoax but "Fallout 4" release date has yet to be determined.

Josh Sawyer, the lead designer of the "Fallout" franchise, on the other hand, acknowledged that the people behind the highly anticipated game franchise are always talking about "Fallout 4" and that an announcement about its release date will soon come.

"A lot of stuff I did in New Vegas was to try and make choices feel more impactful and meaningful and to challenge the player," he said. "Some people want to go through the wasteland like a tourist, which is fine - they don't really want it to be super-difficult. They want it to be interesting and engaging, and they want to see a lot of neat stuff and go through a cool story. And that's cool."

"Personally I like things to be a little more challenging," he added, "And there's a segment of players that also want [that]. I don't have any doubt in this."

Adding, "I hope Bethesda continues to make everything very mod friendly. How they've worked with the community is... the mod community for Bethesda's games is amazing. I hope they continue to support them because it's really cool."

Meanwhile, "Elders Scrolls 6" is reportedly going to be released first based on the teaser that Bethesda Softworks launched at CES 2015.

The game is heavily speculated to be released early next year.
