A few months ago, part of the first trailer for the Fallout series was leaked, a very important project for both Amazon Prime Video and Bethesda, as its success could greatly expand the reach of the beloved franchise far beyond the world of video games. The truth is that the leak mentioned left a good taste in our mouthsand today we finally got to see the full trailer.

That first good impression hasn’t changed, in fact it’s improved a lot in my case, though I have to say the use of CGI in some shots is not very good and that is room for improvement. All in all, the Fallout series looks particularly good because it looks true they stuck with the franchise we all know.

I’m sure fans of the franchise will enjoy and recognize every key moment featured in the attached video. The trailer lasts 2 minutes and 34 seconds and we can see things as important and true to video games as an exit from the refuge into the wildernessBrotherhood of Steel wearing Armor T-60a German shepherd with a meatball, a classic radroach, and a ghoul who retained consciousness.

Generally speaking, the trailer is full of winks and video game fidelity, and that’s exactly why it looks so good. We appreciate that those responsible for the series took this approach and did not follow in the footsteps of other adaptations that ultimately ended in disaster, such as Netflix’s Resident Evil series, which was an insult to the franchise.

There is no doubt that this was possible because Todd Howard, the director of Fallout 3 and Fallout 4, is a powerhouse of the series. However, it should be taken into account that the number It is not a direct adaptation (point by point) of the gamesbut a version that maintains total fidelity to the Fallout universe but adopts a different story and approach.

The series tells the story of Lucy, who leaves Vault 33 to see what happened to the city of Los Angeles two hundred years after the atomic bombs fell. The Fallout series will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on April 12, 2024, a date that matches the rumors we saw earlier that pointed to the first half of 2024.
