Fallout is back 98% fresh: the second season blew up the ratings

War never changes. But the quality of video game adaptations is amazing. The second season of “Fallout” launched on Prime Video on December 17 and immediately received a 98% “fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes. For those who follow the industry, this is an almost impossible result.

From wasteland to the top of the ratings

Amazon has changed the release format. If the first season was dropped entirely, then the second is released one episode per week — a classic television tactic for retaining subscribers. The final episode is promised on February 4, 2026.

What awaits viewers:

• Ella Purnell and Walton Goggins return to their roles
• The action continues in the wasteland of the former Los Angeles
• New locations familiar from the games to fans of the series
• The third season has already been officially confirmed — Amazon believes in the franchise

The first season became an unexpected hit in the spring of 2024. Critics were surprised then: how could a film adaptation of the game be so good? Now they’ve stopped being surprised — they’re just watching.

On Xrust.ru we recommend that if you missed the first season, you have time to catch up. This is not just fan service for gamers — this is a high-quality post-apocalypse with dark humor and unexpected depth.
