As expected following the glowing reception, Amazon has renewed the Fallout TV series for a second season.

Praise be to our insanely brilliant showrunners, Geneva (Robertson-Dworet) and Graham (Wagner), to our kick-ass cast, to Todd and James and all the legends at Bethesda, and to Jen, Vernon, and the amazing team at Amazon for their incredible support of this show. We can’t wait to blow up the world all over again.

The showrunners themselves said:

Holy sh*t. Thank you to Jonah, Kilter, Bethesda, and Amazon for having the courage to make a show that gravely tackles all of society’s most serious problems these days — cannibalism, incest, jello cake. More to come!

Todd Howard, executive producer for the Fallout TV series at Bethesda Game Studios, added:

It’s been one of the most spectacular projects we’ve ever been a part of. Jonah and the team did such an incredible job, and we’re overjoyed not just by the reaction to the show but that we get to work with these amazing people even more.

Lastly, Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios, stated:

Jonah, Lisa, Geneva, and Graham have captivated the world with this ground-breaking, wild ride of a show. The bar was high for lovers of this iconic video game, and so far we seem to have exceeded their expectations while bringing in millions of new fans to the franchise. The cast led by Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins, and Kyle MacLachlan have knocked it out of the park. We’d like to thank Jonah and Lisa and our friends at Bethesda for bringing the show to us, as well as Geneva and Graham for coming aboard as showrunners. We are thrilled to announce Season 2 after only one week out and take viewers even farther into the surreal world of Fallout.

The first season of the Fallout TV show clearly hinted at more to come. Indeed, Jonathan Nolan said the story was designed for it, and discussions on the second season have been going on for some time. We also learned from Graham Wagner that Deathclaws, absent in the first season, would probably be featured in it.

The combination of the TV series' popularity and heavy promotions on all platforms translated into a massive boost to the sales of Fallout 4, Fallout 76, Fallout New Vegas, and Fallout 3, all of which made it in Europe's Top 10 weekly chart.
