Prime Video Sets Fallout Season 2 Finale for Prime Time as Bethesda Orchestrates Franchise Push

The earlier slot signals a tightly coordinated campaign spanning TV to in-game events.

Overview

  • Prime Video advanced the finale to February 3 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT with simultaneous international timings, and the last two episodes were not sent as press screeners to limit leaks.
  • Bethesda released a new “Best Buddies” trailer featuring Aaron Moten alongside Vault Boy to spotlight the franchise.
  • Fallout 76 is free to play for a limited period—through February 4 on PlayStation and February 5 on Xbox and Steam—alongside the Burning Springs update with an Ohio-inspired region and encounters with The Ghoul.
  • Fallout Shelter launched a new season titled The House Always Wins, set on the New Vegas Strip with tie-ins to the live-action series.
  • Fans are speculating about potential remasters of Fallout 3 or New Vegas due to a countdown site, Steam backend edits, and the new ad, but no announcement has been confirmed; the TV series has already been renewed for Season 3.
