Amazon Prime Video’s X post updated fans on theFalloutTV series. The post says the series will be released on Prime Video in 2024 but does not give any specific release date. Additionally, the post provided more information about the series, saying it will take place in Los Angeles and Vault 33. This is the first post from Prime Video about theseries since they posted afirst-lookFalloutphotolast October.
Along with the post by Amazon Prime Video was a teaser at Gamescom 2023 that won’t be released to the public yet. Those who saw the teaser say that the production value seems high with quality special effects, practical sets, and costumes that were in previous leaks. TheFallout teaser also revealedWalton Goggins' ghoul characterin full makeup and prosthetics and reportedly resembled John Hancock fromFallout 4. There is no confirmation on when the studio will release a teaser to the public, but fans should keep their eyes open.
Hopes andexpectations for theFalloutseriesare high, with some talented creators working on it and a set that looks ripped straight out of the games. With recent video game adaptations likeThe Last of Usnot just being popular, but being nominated for multiple Emmys, hopefully, the series can deliver a product that lives up to those high expectations.
UnlikeThe Last of Usseries, which followed closely along with the stories in the video game, theFalloutseries will not be connected to or follow the stories in the games. Although this decision upset some fans,theFalloutfranchise’s worldis large, and it’s probably best that the show explores original places and characters that fans haven’t seen in the games.
Falloutis scheduled to premiere on Amazon Prime Video in 2024.
