Want to catch up on all things in the wasteland before Fallout season 2 hits our screens? It might be a good idea to steer clear of Prime Video’s official Fallout season 1 recap.<\/p>\n
As mentioned by viewers on Reddit<\/a> and Twitter \u2013 and independently verified by GamesRadar+ \u2013 the ‘recap’ video on Prime Video’s Fallout season 2<\/a> page includes an AI voiceover, as well as getting key details about the post-apocalyptic show wrong.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Among the Fallout faux pas is the incorrect assumption that Cooper Howard’s flashback scenes are set in the 1950s (the retro-futuristic aesthetic may fool some, but it’s actually set in 2077).<\/p>\n You may like<\/p>\n Fallout on Prime added a season 1 recap but don\u2019t bother watching it, it\u2019s AI slop that gets several details wrong like the flashbacks being set in the 1950s and \u201cCooper offers Lucy a choice in the finale: die, or join him\u201d phrased as if he\u2019d be the one to kill her \ud83d\ude2d pic.twitter.com\/zHLvN988w5November 24, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Worse, The Ghoul’s offer in the Fallout season 1 ending<\/a> for Lucy (Ella Purnell) is framed as a ‘join or die’ situation, instead of a chance for them both to find the man “behind the wheel” in New Vegas.<\/p>\n Our advice? Quickly binge Fallout season 1 yourself if you can. It’s free for those who own a Samsung smart TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n Thankfully, Fallout season 2 (much like its predecessor) is priding itself on its practicality, right down to hulking New Vegas sets as the wasteland’s heroes and villains make their way onto the Strip.<\/p>\n Speaking to GamesRadar+<\/a>, Bethesda director Todd Howard has opened up more about the creative team’s approach to returning to the location from 2010’s Fallout: New Vegas.<\/p>\n “It’s going back to authenticity,” Howard said. “What would we want to see as a fan? Make it as authentic as possible and come at it with a lot of thought, a lot of love, but also take some swings.”<\/p>\n Despite that, Fallout season 2 will not commit to making any New Vegas ending canon<\/a>, so as not to invalidate any player’s experiences (we’re looking at those of you who decided to side with the NCR).<\/p>\n Fallout season 2 premieres on December 17.
