Series fallout, adapted from games, caused a sensation. A season 2 is likely. And there are some hints about what we might see in new episodes, if Amazon Prime Video orders the sequel.
Adapted from the cult franchise, the series fallout seems to succeed in everything: the adaptation has become, in a few days, a pop culture phenomenon. And for good reason, the series led by Ella Purnell creates a new story while respecting the entire adapted universe – and even extending it. A balance that pleases both fans and newbies.
For the moment, the Amazon Prime Video streaming service has not announced anything regarding a season 2, even if it is difficult to doubt a renewal: Amazon has a solid universe that seems to please people. The end of season 1, in any case, opens up many avenues.
Is Fallout season 2 ordered?
The renewal of fallout for a season 2 has not yet been announced, to date.
On the other hand, even before season 1 aired, Amazon secured a $25 million tax credit for filming the series in California. This doesn’t definitively confirm a renewal, but suggests that Amazon believes in the possibility enough to anticipate. Given the success of the series, the existence of a season 2 is a high probability. The content remains to be determined.
New Vegas is coming to Fallout Season 2
The biggest end-of-season clue points to where a season 2 of the series could take place. The scene takes place at the very end. Hank, Lucy’s father, leaves the New California Republic for a place never seen before in the series, but which fans of the games still recognize: New Vegas.
One of the games in the saga even has this title, Fallout: New Vegasreleased in 2010 on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Located just after Fallout 3but in a new narrative context, it presents an uchronic and post-apocalyptic Mojave Desert.
In fact, there is no doubt that the “lore” of this part of fallout could be adapted in this season 2. On the other hand, Fallout: New Vegas had several endings (which we will not spoil for possible future players), which means that the adaptation, which is rather located after the games already published , will have to make a choice. New Vegas for context also means that new elements of the franchise should appear, such as the totalitarian regime of Caesar’s Legion.
New creatures will also arrive: as we see in the last episode, the skull of a Deathclaw appears. It’s just a piece of a skeleton, but that clearly assumes that we’ll see it in the flesh later. This monster came from genetic manipulation by the American army, but ultimately escaped from them: they are now predators, who must be eliminated in the game and who will give the characters a hard time in the series .
In addition to new parts of the universe, this season 2 will also have to resolve many outstanding questions – this final season does not really complete its story. For example, we don’t know what happens to Norm, Lucy’s brother, whose fate is literally a cliffhanger. The same goes for the New California Republic; the final state of which we do not know very well at the end of the season.
