Falloutseason 2’s set is shown off in a new video, which seemingly teases a Las Vegas flashback. Based on the popular video game franchise, the hit post-apocalyptic Prime Video series premiered in 2024, with showrunners Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet at the helm. Season 1, which follows Ella Purnell’s Vault Dweller, Lucy, as she embarks on a mission to find her father with Walton Goggins' Ghoul, was a critical and viewership success, andFalloutseason 2 was confirmedshortly after its debut. Filming on season 2 got underway last November, with no release date set just yet.
@onzo1313on TikTok now shares a new video from theFalloutseason 2 set in Los Angeles, revealing what appears to be a lit-up version of Las Vegas. The video features some of the city’s distinctive architecture and a bright red car, with a black car in the background. Though it’s hard to make out too much from the shaky footage,the pre-war-looking Vegas set is located just behind a perfect recreation of the battered and worn “Welcome to the strip” signfeatured in theFallout: New Vegasvideo game.
The video also features two very brief looks at some pre-war Las Vegas signage, including ads for what looks to be a cocktail lounge and Michael Angelo’s Sign Shop. Michael Angelo’s Sign Shop, also just known as Michael Angelo’s workshop, is a location featured in the city in theNew Vegasgame.

New Vegas' Inclusion In The Show Explained
TheFalloutseason 1 endingsees Hank MacLean (Kyle MacLachlan) looking out at New Vegas in the distance while wearing a suit of power armor. The location isn’t actually shown in any detail in the debut season, but it’s set to play a much larger role in season 2. Hank will obviously be heading to the major game location, but season 1 ends with Lucy and the Ghoul heading off after him, suggesting they’ll end up in the city as well.
5 Best Theories On Hank’s New Vegas Plan In Fallout Season 2
At the end of Fallout season 1, Lucy’s father, Hank MacLean, takes Maximus' armor and marches toward New Vegas — but what’s his plan for season 2?
With New Vegas set to be a prominent location in season 2, Wagner has confirmed toVarietythat this means its ruler from the games, Mr. House, will also feature in the upcoming episodes. “Las Vegas in the world of Fallout is Robert House’s town,” Wagner said.“Robert House will be involved in Season 2.”
Robert House, as played by actor Anthony Misiano, appears very briefly inFalloutseason 1. It’s unclear if Misiano will be reprising his role in season 2.
The latestFalloutseason 2 set video suggests, much like how season 1 featured a number of Ghoul flashbacks to when he was Cooper Howard,season 2 could show Las Vegas before the war, perhaps exploring House’s origins and his founding of RobCo Industries. It’s Mr. House and RoboCo Industries, after all, that allow Vegas to survive the Great War.
Our Take On A Potential Fallout Season 2 New Vegas Flashback
There’s Reason To Be Optimistic After Season 1
The flashbacks in season 1 were ultimately crucial to understanding the Ghoul and providing some much-needed context for the state of the present-day world in the show. If there will be pre-war Vegas flashbacks in season 2,there’s reason to believe they will be implemented effectively and that they will answer questions that non-game fans may have.
Though CGI was crucial in season 1, the series' emphasis on practical sets and effects really gives everything a very tactile feeling.
What’s especially exciting about the latestFalloutseason 2 set video is just how much the show continues to rely on practical effects. Though CGI was crucial in season 1, the series' emphasis on practical sets and effects really gives everything a very tactile feeling. Season 2 could still be more than a year away from releasing, but it’s already looking promising.
