Interplay, a notable RPG developer from the '90s, faced financial instability while producing celebrated titles. Ed Orman, the lead designer of Fallout Tactics, discussed the challenges during its development, which took place from 1999 to 2001, amidst Interplay's uncertain financial situation. He noted a lack of communication with original Fallout developers, who were likely occupied with other projects, possibly including the Icewind Dale games. Fallout Tactics was often misunderstood at launch but is now available for purchase on platforms like Steam, GOG, and Epic.
