Prime Video has a hit on its hands with Fallout.
This video game adaptation debuted in April 2024 to such a positive response that Amazon fast-tracked season 2 to bring it back as quickly as possible.
Now, the premiere of Fallout season 2 is almost upon us, and fans can look forward to spending another eight weeks in the Wasteland.
To get you ready for the show’s return, Watch With Us is sharing our guide to Fallout season 2, episode 1, including the premiere date and time, the plot, the cast and more.
The final month of 2025 has arrived, but fortunately, December won’t be a quiet month on the major streamers.

Technically, yes. But if you go that route, you may want to wait. Prime Video does offer a 30-day free trial for new users, but since there will be new episodes of Fallout weekly through February 4, 2026, it’s better to wait until we’re within a month of that date.
What Happened in ‘Fallout’ Season 1?
The show introduced fans to Lucy MacLean (Ella Purnell), a young woman who lived in Vault 33 her entire life. When raiders infiltrated the vault and kidnapped her father, Hank MacLean (Kyle MacLachlan), Lucy broke protocol and entered the Wasteland to find him. Along the way, Lucy crossed paths with Maximus (Aaron Moten), a squire among the Brotherhood of Steel who was masquerading as a knight. Both of them ran afoul of The Ghoul (Walton Goggins), a horribly mutated man who was once Hollywood actor Cooper Howard before the nukes devastated the world two hundred years earlier.
It appears that Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood might be teaming up again after filming The White Lotus season 3. CNN journalist Elizabeth Wagmeister claimed on the Thursday, April 17, episode of “The Viall Files” podcast that she heard rumblings that Goggins, 53, and Wood, 31, might have another joint project in the works.

Lucy and Maximus grew close, and he allowed her to escape and returned to face the Brotherhood’s punishment for his crime against them. To his surprise, Maximus was welcomed back into their ranks and he was given the title of a knight. As for Lucy, she finally caught up with the raiders who took her father, and they revealed that Hank was personally responsible for the death of Lucy’s mother and an entire city. The Ghoul also arrived at Lucy’s showdown and demanded to know where his family was.
When Maximus and the Brotherhood attacked the raiders’ headquarters, Hank used the opportunity to slip away. The Ghoul offered Lucy a chance to go with him as they pursued Hank, who was last seen heading for New Vegas.
