Prime Video has released the first trailer for season two of Fallout, confirming a December 17 premiere for the post-apocalyptic drama.

The new season picks up in the wake of last year’s finale, taking the story from the Mojave wasteland to the neon-lit ruins of New Vegas. The trailer, unveiled during Gamescom, teases an expanded scope with the introduction of Robert House, played by Justin Theroux, and the first appearance of a Deathclaw — one of the most feared creatures from the Fallout videogame series.

Flashback sequences also hint at a closer look at the origins of the nuclear war that devastated the series’ retro-futuristic America.

Returning cast members include Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets), Walton Goggins (The White Lotus), Aaron Moten (Emancipation), and Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks). The first season, which ranked among Prime Video’s three most-watched original titles, ended with MacLachlan’s Hank MacLean fleeing in the chaos of the Brotherhood of Steel’s clash with Moldaver’s New California Republic raiders. Meanwhile, Lucy (Purnell) and The Ghoul (Goggins) set out together toward New Vegas.

Based on Bethesda’s long-running video game franchise, Fallout has been praised for balancing faithful world-building with new storylines. Season two promises to delve deeper into the politics and power struggles of New Vegas while exploring the fractured alliances left behind in California.

The series is overseen by showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner, with Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy, Athena Wickham, Todd Howard, and James Altman serving as executive producers.

Fallout Season 2 arrives December 17 on Prime Video.
