The second season of Fallout is debuting one day earlier than previously announced: the new season will now launch on Tuesday, December 16th at 9PM ET / 6PM PT on Prime Video, Amazon says. The season will have eight episodes that will premiere weekly on Wednesdays (besides this first episode), with the season finale airing on February 4th, 2026.
“The new season of Fallout will pick up in the aftermath of Season One’s epic finale and take audiences along for a journey through the wasteland of the Mojave to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas,” according to Amazon.
More than 100 million people have watched Fallout’s first season, which was very good. Amazon had released an AI-powered recap of that first season, but pulled it after viewers noticed that parts of it were wrong.
Fallout has already been renewed for a third season. Amazon hasn’t said when it will debut, but the hope is that filming will begin “next summer,” executive producer Jonathan Nolan told IGN.
