Before we get into the weeds of when the second season will be released, let’s take a look at what the show’s creators and showrunners have said about the second season getting the green light.
“Praise be to our insanely brilliant showrunners, Geneva [Robertson-Dworet] and Graham [Wagner], to our kick-ass cast, to Todd and James and all the legends at Bethesda, and to Jen, Vernon and the amazing team at Amazon for their incredible support of this show,” Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy of Kilter Films said said in a joint statement.
“We can’t wait to blow up the world all over again.”
The showrunners (Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner) added: “Holy sh*t. Thank you to Jonah, Kilter, Bethesda and Amazon for having the courage to make a show that gravely tackles all of society’s most serious problems these days — cannibalism, incest, jello cake. More to come!”
Fallout Season 2‘s release date is on every fan’s mind.
While Prime Video has not set a concrete date, insider sources suggest that production is set to begin late this year, hinting at a possible premiere in late 2025 or early 2026.
Given the scale and complexity of the show’s production, including detailed set designs and special effects to recreate the Fallout universe, a bit of a wait is to be expected.
However, fans can rest assured that the gears are in motion to bring more of the wasteland to their screens.
In terms of scheduling, Prime Video tends to favour a strategic release, possibly aligning Fallout Season 2 with other major releases to maximise viewership.
Stay tuned as we keep an eye on official announcements and leaks that might pin down the release window more precisely.
