“Fallout” has been renewed for Season 2 at Amazon Prime Video.

The announcement comes after Variety reported that a second season was set to receive $25 million in tax credits by relocating shooting to the state of California.

Based on the video game franchise of the same name, the series is set two hundred years after the apocalypse. The official description states it follows “the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters that are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind—and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.”

Per Amazon, the show ranks as one of the top three most-watched titles ever on Prime Video and the most-watched season of TV on the platform since “The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power.”

Good shit, along with the Boys its the only decent thing they do.

Plus, the bird with the massive eyes is hot.

Finished watching it 1 minute ago, nice timing to see these news.

I only know that actress from Arcane (she was time jump Jinx) but this show makes her 2 for 2 in videogame adaptations.

Not familiar with that show or the game, but I'd watch her watching paint dry.

 

[StereoVsn]

Finished watching the show and it actually got quite a bit better with episodes. I didn’t particularly like the first couple of episodes but it grew on me toward the end.

MC and the Ghoul were great, Maximus was meh, but overall good job by Amazon, color me surprised. Now let’s hope the show runners won’t shit up Season 2 like they did with each subsequent season of West World.

Arcane was amazing didn’t realize she was one of the VAs.

That'd likely be a fuckload of paint.

animated show. imo one of the best series i've ever watched. top ten for me. i don't know the game tbh... heard it's a trash fire.

Um reacher

Um reacher

Id rather watch a 5 ft midget with black hair.

Nick Nolte or nothing for Reacher.

That thing with Chris Twat was ok though.

I'm not shocked that Fallout was one of the three most watched titles, but I am surprised so many watched the “The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power.” Literally nobody in my pretty geeky crowd of friends made it through the whole season of that utter shit show. I'm pretty damned excited for season 2 but I really do hope the show runners have a less convoluted and weird plan for the series than they did for WestWorld

 

[april6e]

So...these companies finally figured out after lord knows how many years that they should have been doing larger budget anime and video game adaptations with tv shows and not movies as they don't translate well to that medium.

These execs should hire me. I could have told them years ago that a Bioshock, Half Life or Monster streaming series would be massive.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Um reacher

Terminal List >>> Reacher

 

[Pallas]

Between this and The Wheel of Time, I’m eating good.

 

[clarky]

Terminal List >>> Reacher

Yo this guy knows what's up.

Amazon Reacher is trash.

One shot with TC was close at least TC had the sprit of Reacher, the Amazon guy is so bad if you've read the books. Might as well cast Matt Damon

 

[clarky]

No your eating shit, youre just not aware of the flavour.

 

[Gambit2483]

They did such a great job at adapting a videogame into a TV series I doubt anyone (that isn't a culture warrior) is surprised.

Can't wait to see what they do with Deathclaws!

 

[Pallas]

No your eating shit, youre just not aware of the flavour.

I’m aware enough to know your post is shit, but that’s ok.

lap it up fuzz ball.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

The finger scene was great.

Still don't think the show is great but it's getting better and better as the season goes on.

As video game shit goes, this doesn't get any better.

And i count myself as a Mario bros, mortal kombat, street fighters & assassins creed survivor.

And yes the last of us as well

Show me on the doll where Amazon touched you at?

Odds are you are looking at at least a year, if not more.

this is incredibly impressive, great show though.

Don't forget invincible!!

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Isn’t God of War next on Amazon? Hopefully it’s decent like fallout

 

[adamsapple]

How long is it gonna take?

I'm gonna guess 2026 at the earliest.

Microsoft should totally remake 1 and 2 while we wait for Fallout 5.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Microsoft should totally remake 1 and 2 while we wait for Fallout 5.

If they kept the isometric turn-based gameplay and weren't scared to leave "problematic" content intact, then I'd be interested. Or just call them remasters and release them on the consoles. If you can play Wasteland or Shadowrun in console form, you should be able to play F1&F2 after the necessary UI changes.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Microsoft should totally remake 1 and 2 while we wait for Fallout 5.

I have lived my entire life not being interested in any Fallout game. Not 1, 2, 3, 4...not even 76. I am a simple human susceptible to marketing because I'm on board now let's go.

 

[Rockman33]

Good shit, along with the Boys its the only decent thing they do.

Terminal, reacher and invincible are also really good

[Hawk The Slayer]

Best video game live adaptation show so far. Twisted Metal was great too. Witcher 3 was great until they ruined it with disgusting shit in season 3.

Hope we'll finally see the Enclave with some new power armor for season 2. Maybe they'll have the Advance Power Armor MK3 by now since it is the latest in the timeline. Can't wait to see Mr. House and I hope they'll use the House Always Wins ending. They are definitely showing Deathclaws but wouldn't mind seeing a surviving Courser. Also hope Max's brotherhood friend dies in Season 2 cause he was annoying and useless.

[HJuggernaut]

I thought the show was good, I think they nailed the pre war vibe and the vault, but anything post war top side feels off, maybe its the lack of supermutants.

"I do this shit for the love of the game"

The game:

 

[Zacfoldor]

Never any doubt.

Hopefully the guy who plays Maximus will learn how to emote a facial expression beyond “visible confusion” by then.
