A new clip released for the Fallout TV show has fans buzzing to get their hands on the game adaptation, raising expectations for the latest Amazon Prime Video series.
Following the success of HBO’s The Last of Us, it was no surprise to see Fallout getting the small screen treatment. Thanks to Amazon Prime Video, the post-apocalyptic game will soon appear on our screens, Ghouls and all.
The Fallout Amazon series, set in the same universe as the game, follows Lucy. A young woman who ventures out from the safety of the Vaults, she enters a ravaged and dangerous version of humanity after a nuclear war centuries earlier.
Fans of the game are desperately hoping for a successful adaptation, but it doesn’t look like they need to worry — a first clip from the show has already amassed plenty of hype.

The first-look quickly attracted a wave of praise from fans, with many applauding Walton Goggins and his performance as The Ghoul. Ghouls, as those who play the game know, are posthuman figures who survived the nuclear holocaust, becoming mutated and antisocial in the process. Goggins’ version is a gunslinger, and fans think he looks pretty damn cool.
