“Fallout” Season 2 is bringing more post-apocalyptic mayhem to Prime Video.

Picking up after directly after last season’s epic finale, it shifts the action to the city of New Vegas and its surrounding Mojave Desert. We follow Lucy and The Ghoul as they team up to track down Lucy’s father Hank, and deal with the city’s devious boss, Mr House.

Two hundred years after the apocalypse, the United States is a wasteland filled with mutated humans, giant wildlife, and demented factions all battling for supremacy. “Fallout” Season 2 decides the fate of it all, because while hope for the irradiated hellscape is already lost, it can always get worse.
