They’re on the move and they’re heading back to us. Who are they, you might ask? Why, our favorite foursome from Prime Video’s Fallout. The Ghoul, Lucy, Maximus, and CX404 a.k.a. Dogmeat are heading toward New Vegas and also back to our screens. Fallout season two has officially set a December release date window. Although we don’t know when exactly in December Fallout will arrive, we’re excited to have a firmer window to look forward to. Fallout season one was one of Nerdist‘s best shows of the year in 2024, but it may well be one of our favorite shows ever. Rarely is a video game adaptation so skillful at creating the feeling of the game it borrows from while manifesting its own compelling tale. Fallout did so much right, it’s amazing. And so we can’t wait for season two to release.
We don’t know too much about the tale that Fallout season two will tell when it finally does make its way onto our screens in December. But we do know that the iconic setting of New Vegas will take center stage. There, we’ll likely find the mysterious Mr. House, whom Fallout teased in season one. It’s likely Mr. House is large and in charge in Fallout season two’s version of New Vegas. While some fans worry that visiting New Vegas when season two of Fallout releases will force the series to declare one of the Fallout: New Vegas endings more canon than the other, we at Nerdist feel like that’s a pitfall that the show can cleverly avoid.
In any case, our Fallout brains are already functioning in full force. So clearly, there’s a lot to be excited about. Fallout season two will release in December. The best holiday gift Prime Video could give, if you ask us.
