Fallout Season 2 Teaser Hits the Internet, Reveals Fresh Look at New Vegas

A little teaser for Fallout Season 2 has deed the internet, showing a caller look astatine New Vegas.

The clip, shown during the Amazon Upfront livestream overnight, was captured and uploaded connected reddit. It shows Lucy (Ella Purnell) and The Ghoul (Walton Goggins) 50 miles retired from what was Las Vegas. We perceive the celebrated Geiger Counter sound, signifying radiation is successful the air. The Ghoul and Lucy look astatine each different earlier heading towards New Vegas, and we get a bully look astatine the post-apocalyptic metropolis skyline.

New Vegas is of people the mounting for the Obsidian-developed Fallout: New Vegas, and the mounting for Season 2 of the Fallout adaptation.

So, what tin we larn astir the show's instrumentality connected New Vegas from this teaser? Well, it’s much elaborate than the little look we got astatine New Vegas astatine the extremity of Season 1, which stands to reason. It volition look acquainted to anyone who's played New Vegas, though it appears much densely packed with buildings (the video crippled New Vegas was a comparatively sparse location).

The standout is of people the Lucky 38 Resort and Casino, which is connected the New Vegas Strip. In the New Vegas video game, the Lucky 38 is the pre-War casino from which Mr. House runs the city. Fans besides judge they tin marque retired the Ultra-Luxe, but successful information it’s hard to discern idiosyncratic video crippled locations from the changeable here.

Warning! Potential spoilers for the Fallout TV amusement follow.

The amusement is confirmed to beryllium heading to New Vegas for Season 2, and it's not conscionable astir the determination itself. Mr. House is acceptable to beryllium a portion of the caller season, though however progressive he'll beryllium is unclear. We've already seen the tease of immoderate acquainted sights acknowledgment to erstwhile acceptable leaks, including this video that shows portion of New Vegas and the iconic Lucky 38 edifice and casino, each agleam and lit up. It's surely acold from the rusty spot you mightiness expect.

It’s worthy remembering wherever we are successful the Fallout timeline: the TV amusement is acceptable successful the twelvemonth 2296, aft each the Fallout video games. Fallout 4 takes spot successful the twelvemonth 2287, portion Fallout: New Vegas is acceptable successful the twelvemonth 2281, a afloat 15 years anterior to the events of the show.

So, what happened successful the 15 years since we past saw New Vegas? Co-showrunners Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet person said the mounting has changed, and explained wherefore that is important for fans to note.

“All we truly privation the assemblage to cognize is that things person happened, truthful that determination isn't an anticipation that we prime the amusement up successful Season 2, pursuing 1 of the myriad canon endings that beryllium connected your choices erstwhile you play [Fallout: New Vegas],” Wagner said past year.

“With that post-credits stuff, we truly wanted to imply, guys, the satellite has progressed, and the thought that the wasteland stays arsenic it is decade-to-decade is preposterous to us. It’s conscionable a spot [of] changeless tragedy, events, horrors — there's a changeless churn of trauma. We're decidedly implying much has occurred.”

But what volition hap erstwhile the Power Armor-clad Overseer Hank, played by Kyle MacLachlan, turns up (potentially aft a dustup with a Deathclaw)? Some speculate Mr. House, the enigmatic ruler of New Vegas successful the video crippled and dastardly brag of RobCo Industries successful the TV show’s flashbacks to earlier the bombs fell, whitethorn enlist the assistance of Hank to reconstruct New Vegas to its erstwhile glory. Perhaps, if that’s the mode the communicative goes, the forces of Mr. House and New Vegas volition extremity up taking connected the Brotherhood of Steel successful yet different Fallout faction battle, with Lucy, Maximus, and The Ghoul caught successful the middle.

Overnight, Amazon announced a December 2025 merchandise model for Season 2, and confirmed Season 3. Last week, Aaron Moten, who plays Brotherhood of Steel hopeful Maximus, said the “endpoint” of the Fallout TV amusement has it moving until Season 5 oregon Season 6.

We had a large clip with Season 1, penning successful IGN's Fallout The Series reappraisal that the amusement is "a agleam and comic apocalypse filled with acheronian punchlines and bursts of ultra-violence [and is] among the champion video crippled adaptations ever made," slapping it with a well-earned 9/10.
