Fallout season 2 is roughly halfway through its run, and so far, so good: PC Gamer's Jody Macgregor said in his review that "it's still a show you need to pay attention to keep up with, and more importantly it's a show worth paying attention to." But as the new episodes are doled out weekly on Prime, some Fallout fans have also had their attention taken by Amazon's Fallout website.

The website itself is a fairly typical 'would you like to know more?' repository of background information: storyboard galleries, behind-the-scenes videos, Easter eggs, and other bits and bobs for fans who want to go deep on the whole thing. (Yes, there's a scratchy recording of The Ink Spots' "I Don't Want to Set the World On Fire" to be found, for those who haven't heard enough of that.) Naturally, there's also a link leading to all kinds of Fallout stuff you can buy on Amazon.

One or two fully-committed hardcores are even crossing their fingers for Fallout 5, and you know what? I respect it.

The optimism sort of makes sense. We already know when the final episode of Fallout season 2 is going to air, so what's the point of counting down to it? A teaser for Fallout season 3 would make sense, but it's not expected to begin shooting until sometime this summer at the earliest.

But a Fallout 3 remaster? It does fit. You'll recall that such a thing was mentioned in that big Bethesda leak a few years ago, the same leak that also noted the Oblivion remaster that dropped in 2025. You may also note that the Oblivion remaster was a —it became one of the year's .
