'Fallout' Season 2: Plot, Release Date & Everything We Know
One of the best video game adaptations ever is already on its way.
Fallout has become one of the most notable releases of 2024 and entered the list of the best video game adaptations. Unsurprisingly, just a week after its release, the project was renewed for a second season.
Here is when the second season of Fallout will be released and what it will be about.
'Fallout' Season 2 Release Date & Trailer
The highly anticipated second season to one of the best video game adaptations in recent years will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on December 17, 2025.
New episodes will be released weekly on Wednesdays. A total of eight episodes are planned, with the final episode set to air on February 4, 2026.
Meanwhile, you can watch the trailer for Fallout Season 2.
What Will 'Fallout' Season 2 Be About & What Was Shown in the Trailer?
The trailer for the second season, along with other promotional materials, reveals many details about the second chapter.
Robert House's Dark Past
The trailer opens with landscapes of the Mojave Wasteland, where the nearly intact city of New Vegas is located. According to the video game, the city avoided destruction thanks to the timely actions of Robert House, the head of RobCo Industries.
After mathematically calculating the probability of a nuclear war, House began preparing the city for the conflict and its aftermath.
The center of life in the post-apocalyptic city is the so-called Strip – a section of Las Vegas Boulevard that has retained its status as the world capital of gambling.
However, the series promises to reveal the events leading to the war and Robert House's involvement. Perhaps viewers will discover that the sole ruler of the Strip was the most interested person involved in the beginning of the conflict.
Cooper Howard's Backstory
The project will continue to unveil the secrets of Vault-Tec, the corporation that built the shelters. Hank MacLean was one of its past managers. At the same time, it will offer a fresh perspective on the history of the company responsible for conducting experiments on people in underground shelters.
In the first season, viewers were introduced to Vault-Tec's plans through Cooper Howard's backstory, which included his transformation into a radioactive man named Ghoul before the global conflict.
His storyline will continue in the second season. The trailer has shown excerpts of a visit to pre-war Las Vegas and other moments from the man's life.
Caesar's Legion & Robert House's Fate
In the second season, factions from the video game series will appear, including the organization Caesar's Legion. It is unclear what role its representatives will play in the plot because Fallout: New Vegas is known for its nonlinearity and multiple endings.
With this in mind, the fate of Mr. House is also uncertain. Viewers will definitely see him in the past, but depending on the player's choices, the ruler of the Strip could lose power and even his life.
Judging from footage at the end of the first season, one might think that New Vegas lies in ruins and has lost its status as a gambling capital. However, the new trailer hints at something different.
In one shot, one of House's robot assistants, a Securitron named Victor, appears. If the main character of the game conflicts with the owner of the city, the robot turns off.
However, in the trailer, Victor is seen working properly. This may suggest that the canonical ending of the video game is the one in which the wealthy genius from the past survives.
Deathclaw Is Here
The final surprise for fans was the demonstration of one of the most dangerous creatures of the wasteland: a mutant known as the Deathclaw. Lucy and the Ghoul encounter this creature at the end of the trailer.
