Amazon Prime Video’s Fallout is officially returning for a second season. After its breakout success in 2024, the hit post-apocalyptic series has begun preparations for Season 2, with new filming locations, expanded storylines, and even a teaser trailer giving fans a glimpse of what’s to come.
Fallout Season 2 Renewal and Production Details
Following its record-breaking debut, Fallout quickly became one of Amazon Prime Video’s biggest original series. The show — adapted from Bethesda’s popular video game franchise — earned critical acclaim for its world-building, performances, and striking visuals.
Amazon confirmed Season 2 shortly after the first season premiered in April 2024. According to Newsweek, production has moved to California, with the series receiving over $25 million in filming tax credits through the state’s Film and Television Tax Credit Program.
Filming is expected to begin in early 2025, signaling that Fallout Season 2 could potentially arrive on screens by late 2025 or early 2026.
What to Expect from Fallout Season 2
Though plot details remain limited, creators Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner have hinted that the next chapter will explore “new regions of the wasteland” and introduce “characters fans of the game will instantly recognize.”
Season 2 is expected to pick up after Lucy (Ella Purnell) leaves the Vault in search of answers, while The Ghoul (Walton Goggins) continues his morally complex journey through the post-nuclear world.
Reportedly, viewers can expect higher stakes, deeper lore, and an expanded look at the fractured remnants of humanity surviving the apocalypse.

Critical Reception and Fan Response
The first season of Fallout received strong reviews from both fans and critics, earning a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Reviewers praised its faithful adaptation of the beloved video game’s tone, as well as its performances and production quality.
Television analyst Carla Jennings told Newsweek, “Fallout managed to blend fan nostalgia with strong original storytelling — something few game adaptations pull off successfully. Season 2 has the potential to elevate that further.”
Release Date and How to Watch
As of now, Amazon has not announced an official release date for Fallout Season 2. However, given the current filming schedule, it’s expected to premiere sometime in 2026.
All episodes of Fallout Season 1 are currently available to stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, where Season 2 will also premiere upon release.
Outlook
With its immersive world, dark humor, and loyal fanbase, Fallout Season 2 stands as one of the most anticipated television releases of the coming year. Fans can expect more action, deeper lore, and the same signature mix of danger and irony that made the first season such a hit.
