To celebrate the arrival of Fallout Season 2, one hit Bethesda title is free to play on both PlayStation and Xbox for a limited time.
Yesterday saw the premiere of Prime Video’s Fallout Season 2 with the hit television show continuing the story of Lucy, The Ghoul and co. as they embark on a journey towards New Vegas following the events of Season 1.
First airing back in 2024 and based on the video game franchise by Bethesda, Fallout was an instant success, receiving rave reviews for its performances, writing, visuals, and production design. As a result, a second season was immediately snapped up and even before the launch of Season 2, a third season received the greenlight.
Since its arrival on Prime Video, Fallout has received three Emmy award nominations for both Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for Walter Goggins who takes on the role of The Ghoul.
