Larian has said in the past that two games are in development. One that is their ip and one that is a licensed ip.
I would literally murder someone for a larian fallout.
So far we've had "amazing Fallout RPG on a janky engine" when (Black Isle / Obsidian) developed it, and "bland Fallout RPG on a janky engine" when Bethesda have developed it. Having both great writers and a decent engine would be amazing for Fallout, although just Obsidian and their Pillars of Eternity engine would be perfect with me.
Larian have said that they'd like to get away from DnD 5e after working on BG3 for so long, so I'm assuming they won't have licensed Pathfinder either. If we take the set of all possible IPs and strike out those two, then that must make Fallout more likely. (Albeit not very likely.)
With the renewed interest from the show, it would make sense for Microsoft to get someone else working on a Fallout game since Bethesda isn't going to do it any time soon. However, I would think that Obsidian would be the more natural choice. I would guess that MS would prefer to utilize one of the studios they own rather than license it out, but I could be wrong about that.
And even if they did license out development on a Fallout game, I would assume that they would be in a hurry to get something out there, which would make Larian far less appealing to them. I agree that they would probably make an amazing Fallout game, but another studio would probably make a decent enough game that costs less to develop and pays off sooner.
I predict a Marvel or Starwars game.
Bethesda has said that they aren't going to do one until after the next Elder Scrolls game, so if anything in the Fallout world is going to come out on any kind of a near-term schedule, it's going to have to be via someone with available bandwidth licensing it.
