Update: Reddit user /u/_Karmageddon has done some snooping in the countdown website's source code, and found some interesting information. First, the source code directly mentions "Fallout 4":

And if that isn't confirmation enough, Bethesda seemed to have accidently made live the official Fallout 4 website. which for a short time displayed the exact same countdown. It was shortly taken down, but a WHOIS on the site's domain reveals some pretty conclusive stuff .

Looking deeper into the source code, we can also spot pre-order buttons for PC (duh), PS4, Xbox One, and even the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Fallout 4 is a thing, and you're going to want to be here tomorrow at 3pm BST to find out more!

Additional reporting by Nick Wilson.

There's a countdown beneath the text, which will conclude at 3pm BST tomorrow. It looks like our first big information dump about Fallout 4 will be coming within 24 hours. How exciting.
