That is likely when Fallout 4 will come out, since we still haven't heard anything from Bethesda about it. A 2015 release is almost impossible at this point. Anyway this is on topic, since it means we would have the same background until TES VI, which won't come out for another 3-4 years at the earliest.

Since Bethesda's release schedule has been:
 * 2006-Oblivion
 * 2008-Fallout 3
 * 2011-Skyrim

Meaning it likely continue as:
 * 2016-Fallout 4
 * 2018-19 - TES VI

That is if they don't release a new IP before or after Fallout. Keeping the same background for the year and a half we've already had the ESO Ouroboros and the next 3-4 years until TES VI, meaning we would have it for around 5 years. That is a long time to keep the same background...
