Amazon has brought forward the Prime Video release date of Fallout Season 2 by a day in a surprise move.
Season 2 now debuts tomorrow, Tuesday, December 16, at 6pm PT — one day earlier than previously announced. Confirmation comes direct from Las Vegas’ Exosphere of Sphere, tweeted by the official Fallout account, below.

To promote the launch of Season 2, the Sphere was turned into a post-apocalyptic snow globe featuring Fallout characters Lucy (Ella Purnell), Maximus (Aaron Moten), and The Ghoul (Walton Goggins), as well as a Deathclaw — one of the Fallout universe's most deadly monsters — attempting to break through the Exosphere itself.
The new season picks up in the aftermath of Season 1’s finale and travels through the wasteland of the Mojave to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas. The eight-episode season will now premiere tomorrow, with one episode rolling out weekly until the season finale on February 4, 2026. Amazon clarified to IGN that it is just Season 2, Episode 1 that premieres tomorrow – the rest of the season's episodes still premiere at midnight Tuesday nights / Wednesday mornings.
Fans of Obsidian's much-loved video game will be interested to hear that Season 2 takes a "fog of war" approach to how it juggles Fallout: New Vegas' various endings.
We've got plenty more on the Fallout TV show, including a Season 1 recap, below. We’ve also got an interview with Bethesda development boss Todd Howard, who has ruled out ever appearing on the show itself.
Meanwhile, Amazon has pulled its AI-powered Fallout Season 1 recap after fans noticed it made significant errors ahead of the launch of Season 2. To date, Fallout Season 1 has amassed more than 100 million viewers worldwide, ranking among Prime Video's top three most-watched titles ever.
