Fallout Season 2 Trailer Enters New Vegas In All Its Violent Glory

Grab your laser rifle and pop a dose of RadAway, because a new trailer for “Fallout” season 2 is here! Prime Video’s adaptation of the post-apocalyptic, retro-futuristic action game franchise stars Ella Purnell as plucky Vault Dweller Lucy McClean, who stepped out into the surface world for the first time in season 1 and is now a (somewhat) seasoned wasteland wanderer. The series also stars Walton Goggins as the Ghoul, a radiation-afflicted bounty hunter, and Aaron Moten as Maximus, a foot soldier in the paralimitary force known as the Brotherhood of Steel.

Things are looking pretty normal in the latest trailer for “Fallout” season 2. Normal for the wasteland, that is, which means there’s a gang of ghouls dressed like Elvis, Maximus’ buddy Thaddeus (Johnny Pemberton) has a mouth growing out of his shoulder, and there’s a Deathclaw on the rampage. 

The ending of “Fallout” season 1 teased a familiar location: New Vegas, the primary setting of the fourth game in the franchise. Unlike most cities in the United States, Las Vegas survived the nuclear apocalypse relatively unscathed (though its population was wiped out by the radiation) and has been rebuilt as a bright spot of civilization and luxury within the wasteland.

After learning that her father, Hank McClean (Kyle MacLachlan), was actually responsible for the nuclear decimation, Lucy has teamed up with the Ghoul to chase after him. Ella Purnell told Empire that this season is almost a “buddy road trip” for the two enemies-turned-reluctant-allies.

“Fallout” season 2 premieres December 17, 2025, on Prime Video.
