Prime Video has unveiled the location and release date for its upcoming Fallout TV series.
The post-apocalyptic drama, based on the video game franchise of the same name, will take place in a version of Los Angeles that has been ravaged by nuclear war. The series is expected to hit the streamer sometime in the first half of 2024.
A first look at the show was shown to Gamescom attendees, which featured “the world as it was pre-war, the hot flash of nuclear explosions tearing cities apart, and some stunningly recreated Fallout characters and locations.” Bethesda Games Studios producer Todd Howard, director of various Fallout installments, presented the footage.

The video game franchise has taken place in several locations, including 'New' California, the American Midwest, the Commonwealth, and Appalachia.
Joy previously described the series as a "gonzo, crazy, funny, adventure, and mindfuck like none you’ve ever seen before" and added, simply, "It's pretty cool." We're ready.
