“Fallout” is introducing New Vegas in its first-look photos for Season 2. The series will premiere in December on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
The upcoming season of the Prime Video hit will take place in the aftermath of Season 1’s finale as these characters journey through the wasteland of the Mojave desert to New Vegas, a post-apocalyptic version of Las Vegas.
New Vegas is a major part of the “Fallout” universe of video games. The city first appeared in “Fallout: New Vegas,” a spinoff that was released in 2010 after “Fallout 3.” In the open world game, players control a courier who survived an assassination attempt by someone who’s unknown. New Vegas was designed in the game to look like the Las Vegas strip in the 1950s. Because “Fallout: New Vegas” is an open world game — meaning players have free reign of a massive map rather than being funneled through a more controlled narrative arc — this particular game doesn’t give many clues about Season 2’s plot. But if we know anything about “Fallout,” it’s going to be dark, gross and bleakly funny.
Here are the first-look images for Season 2:
“Fallout” stars Ella Purnell (“Yellowjackets,” “Sweetpea”), Aaron Moten (“Emancipation”), Walton Goggins (“The White Lotus,” “The Righteous Gemstones”), Kyle MacLachlan (“Twin Peaks”), Moisés Arias (“The King of Staten Island”) and Frances Turner (“The Boys”). Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serve as the series’ executive producers, creators and showrunners.
The Prime Video original is produced by Kilter Films and Amazon MGM Studios in association with Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks. Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy and Athena Wickham also serve as EPs. Todd Howard executive produces for Bethesda Game Studios along with James Altman, who EPs for Bethesda Softworks.
Based on the video game franchise of the same name, “Fallout” currently stands as the second most-watched original in the history of Prime Video. After premiering in April 2024, the series secured 65 million viewers in its first 16 days of availability and surpassed 100 million views by that October.
