Fallout Season 2: If you’ve watched the end of the post-apocalyptic show on Prime Video, you’re probably wondering if there will be a second season of Fallout. While there’s no official announcement about it, it seems likely to happen soon. Here, we discuss the clues that hint at another season and what could happen next in the story.
However, we’ll be talking about essential parts of season 1, so make sure you’ve seen all the episodes before reading further to avoid spoilers.
Are you ready? Here’s everything you need to know about Fallout season 2. We’ll talk about possible stories, which games might be necessary, and what the person in charge of the show has mentioned about whether it will happen.
Will Fallout have a season 2?
Prime Video hasn’t said anything about Fallout season 2 yet. They usually wait to see if a show is popular before deciding if they’ll make more episodes. They look at things like how many people watch it.
That said, it’s pretty probable that we’ll get a Fallout season 2. Amazon Studios is invested in making Fallout their big sci-fi show. They worked hard to get the rights to the game from Bethesda Studios. They want it to be a significant show, like The Boys or The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
There’s a hint that they might make a season 2 because of some tax credit news. California is giving Fallout $25 million in tax credits, suggesting they might film the next season there.
Plus, many things are left unanswered in the finale of the Fallout TV show. This makes it likely they’ll make another season. Let’s see what might happen next if they do!
What’s going to happen in Fallout season 2?
We discovered what Vault-Tec did, hinting that they might have been responsible for dropping the first bomb over 200 years ago. Then, there were surprising revelations about the Brotherhood of Steel. The Elder Cleric asked Maximus to help him create a new Brotherhood that could potentially rule the wasteland. The series concludes with Maximus in charge, holding onto the cold fusion device.
Towards the end of the season, we got a big hint about what might happen in season 2 when we learned Hank MacLean’s true identity. He escaped wearing the Brotherhood of Steel suit during a fight with the Ghoul and Lucy MacLean. At the end of season 1, he’s seen looking towards New Vegas, a significant location in the Fallout games. This suggests that it could be a key location in Fallout season 2.
Another character we might see again is Cooper Howard’s wife, Barb, played by Frances Turner. We’ve only seen her in flashbacks, but given what we know about Vault-Tec, she might still be alive somewhere. The Ghoul and Lucy are searching for the person responsible, so could it be someone we already know?
Which games will Fallout season 2 be based on?
While Fallout takes inspiration from the popular Fallout games, the story in the TV show doesn’t directly follow any specific game storylines. However, it is connected to the broader Fallout universe. Todd Howard confirmed it’s part of the official story, with many Fallout references hidden in the show. We can expect this to continue in season 2.
Additionally, the show might explore two key elements from the games in the future. Firstly, the revelation about who caused the first bombs is hinted to be Vault-Tec in the show, but the games hint it might have been China. Exploring how this fits into the game’s canon could be intriguing in the next season.
Another significant source of inspiration for the show could be the location hinted at the end. If it’s what we suspect, season 2 might take ideas from the spin-off game Fallout: New Vegas from 2010. In that game, players follow a character called the Courier as they deliver a package through the Mojave Desert to New Vegas. While the show might not copy the exact storylines, especially since it’s set later, it could use some iconic elements from that location. Exciting times ahead!
What’s the scoop on Fallout season 2 from the creators
The people working on the Fallout TV show want to make many seasons. Showrunner Graham Wagner talked to Total Film and said, “It’s an uncertain time in television. So the art form of season finales has become: provide enough closure, but leave the door open for more.”
He also shared his hopes for more episodes, saying, “We feel we’ve barely scratched the surface of the Fallout universe. We literally have documents and documents of stuff that we’re, in success, eager to dig into. Our fingers are crossed that we’re going to get the opportunity to do all that stuff.” They are hopeful they can do all these things in future seasons.
