Prime Video announced today that Fallout has been renewed for a third season. The pickup is an early one, coming ahead of the sci-fi drama's sophomore run, which is slated to premiere this December. To date, its first season has accumulated over 100 million viewers worldwide, ranking among the streamer's top three most-watched titles ever.
"We are absolutely thrilled that our global Prime Video customers will be able to delve deeper into the wonderfully surreal and captivating world of Fallout," said Vernon Sanders, global head of television, Amazon MGM Studios. "Jonah, Lisa, Geneva, and Graham have done an exceptional job bringing this beloved video game franchise to vivid life on Prime Video. Together with our amazing partners at Bethesda Games and Bethesda Softworks, we are delighted to announce a third season of Fallout, well ahead of the much-anticipated debut of Season Two."
"The holidays came a little early this year - we are thrilled to be ending the world all over again for a third season of Fallout," said executive producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy.

Based on the best-selling global video game franchise, Fallout is set 200 years after the apocalypse, following the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters as they return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind. There they discover a complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.
