Ever since season one of Fallout surprised the world with its spin on the iconic RPG series, fans have been eager to see just what Lucy and her Ghoulish ally will get up to after we ended on the cliffhanger tease of one of the most beloved locales in modern Fallout history in the city of New Vegas. Now, we’ve finally got a glimpse of what to expect inside its walls.
As part of today’s opening ceremony for Gamescom 2025 in Cologne, Germany, Amazon officially debuted the first teaser trailer for Fallout‘s sophomore season. It picks up with Lucy (Ella Purnell) and the Ghoul (Walton Goggins) as they continue the search for the former’s father, Hank (Kyle McLachlan), after he revealed the real reason behind Lucy’s mother’s absence and the secret behind the Vaults.
Season two will see the duo soak in the bright lights and deadly politics of New Vegas, a dangerous but self-sufficient pocket of civilization still largely left standing in the ashes of its pre-war glitz and glamor.
Aside from Purnell, Goggins, and McLachlan, season two will see Aaron Moten’s return as Maximus—the wayward Brotherhood of Steel soldier who was tragically separated from Lucy after their close bond in season one—alongside Moisés Arias as Norm, Lucy’s brother who managed to uncover the secret of the Vaults himself at the climax of last season.
Frances Turner will also return as Barb, the Ghoul’s ex-wife in his past life as Cooper Howard, and one of the key masterminds behind Vault-Tec’s plan for the war. As you can see in the trailer, Justin Theroux also appears as Robert House, a major player in New Vegas.
Fallout returns to Prime Video this December 17.
