Fallout fans, the wait is over. After the first season took everyone by surprise with its gritty, fun, and smart spin on the iconic RPG series, we finally have our first look at what is coming in Season 2.
The newly released teaser trailer for Fallout Season 2 just dropped during the Gamescom 2025 opening ceremony in Cologne, Germany, and it confirms that we’re heading into the bright, chaotic heart of New Vegas.
Amazon officially unveiled the teaser, and it picks up right where Season 1 left off. We see Ella Purnell’s Lucy and Walton Goggins’ Ghoul back in action, continuing their search for Lucy’s father, Hank, played by Kyle McLachlan.
After Hank revealed the truth about Lucy’s mother and the dark secrets behind the Vaults, there’s clearly a lot more to uncover, and the trailer promises that New Vegas is the key.
Season 2 will plunge us deep into this infamous Fallout locale. New Vegas is portrayed as a dangerous, but surprisingly functional, pocket of civilization, still glowing with remnants of its pre-war decadence. The teaser shows Lucy and the Ghoul navigating this treacherous terrain, where power, politics, and personal stakes collide under the neon-lit ruins.
The trailer also confirms the return of key characters from Season 1. Aaron Moten is back as Maximus, the conflicted Brotherhood of Steel soldier who formed a strong bond with Lucy before they were separated.
Moisés Arias returns as Norm, Lucy’s brother, who stumbled upon the truth about the Vaults at the climax of last season. Frances Turner is also back as Barb, the Ghoul’s ex-wife from his past life as Cooper Howard, and one of the masterminds behind Vault-Tec’s war-time plans.
A standout moment in the trailer is the appearance of Justin Theroux as Robert House, a major power player in New Vegas and a name longtime fans will instantly recognize. His role is expected to play a major part in unraveling even more of the series’ layered narrative.
Fallout Season 2 officially drops on Prime Video this December 17, so we won’t have to wait long before diving back into this wild and irradiated world. The new season looks like it’ll be packed with explosive moments, deepening mysteries, and plenty of Wasteland crazinessto keep fans hooked.
