Congrats, Bethesda fans! The Fallout TV show is coming just over a week earlier than first reported! Fallout will be released on April 11, 2024. Additionally, the series will break from Prime Videos’ traditional weekly releases and release all at once.
If you have any qualms about the live-action Fallout TV show, the new trailer will put them to rest. Opening with “I Don’t Want to Set the World on Fire,” captures the essence of the video game. The trailer showcases the weaving tones of the series that replicate what the iconic Bethesda game series is known for—sharp commentary, dark humor, nostalgiac retrofuturism, and, of course, a dog.

The trailer showcases the main trio of Lucy, Maximus, and the Ghoul. It’s just over two minutes, but the Fallout trailer packs a punch. Switching from a Vault-Tec promotional ad to the Wasteland, I don’t think a series trailer has nailed the atmosphere, aesthetic, and tone of the work it’s adapting.

Read the official synopsis below:
Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. Two hundred years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind. They are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.
Ella Purnell is Lucy, an optimistic Vault-dweller with an all-American can-do spirit. Her peaceful and idealistic nature is tested when she is forced to the surface to rescue her father. Aaron Moten is Maximus, a young soldier who rises to the rank of squire in the militaristic faction called Brotherhood of Steel. He will do anything to further the Brotherhood’s goals of bringing law and order to the wasteland. Walton Goggins is the Ghoul, a morally ambiguous bounty hunter who holds within him a 200-year history of the post-nuclear world.
