How can be that lucky to guess the name "Fallout 76"?

There's what, 7 billion people in the world? If every one of them guessed what the name of the next Fallout game would be the chances of at least one of them getting it right would be pretty good. ie. throw enough shit at a wall and some of it will stick, especially when you've got a huge number of people flinging shit.

To claim that is meaningless, since we have no idea about the:

1) Number of people guessing the titles of future games, 2) posting it on the internet, 3) claiming it to be true, 4) doing so in the day they are to be announced with no previous hint of it whatsoever; and 5) the chance of specifically sticking the number "76" after "Fallout" as a subtitle, among the countless combinations of words and numbers, and getting it right under the aforementioned circumstances.

On the other hand, there is the chance someone with insider knowledge merely decided to collect information about the E3 and leak it online.

The former is possibly harder than the lottery, the later, not so much.

Of course, we don't know the chance of legitimately having information about Fallout 76 and then deliberately try to spread false information in order to gather attention, either.
