Amazon Gives Away Must-Play Video Game Ahead of the Post-Apocalyptic Series Returns

If you are subscribed to Amazon Prime and looking forward to the upcoming second season of Fallout, there's a prime opportunity waiting for you: Amazon is offering a new selection of complimentary titles, featuring Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition.

While not strictly essential to grasping the storyline of the upcoming post-apocalyptic series, players might also want to snag the other Fallout game included in Prime Gaming's October update: the just-as-good and equally chaotic Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition. Better yet, subscribers get to keep their downloadable games permanently with the service, so you can jump in and play at any time.

Upcoming Episodes Information

The newest Fallout season, starring Ella Purnell as Lucy MacLean and Walton Goggins as the mysterious bounty hunter referred to as The Ghoul, debuts on Prime Video on December 17, with the third season confirmed to come after. That leaves plenty of time to start playing Fallout: New Vegas.

Fallout: New Vegas lets you explore all the iconic locations and meet the eclectic characters that have been unveiled in Fallout season 2's trailers and early screenshots.

One of the first images revealed of the upcoming season depicts Walton Goggins' character, pre-Wasteland, arriving at the Lucky 38 Casino and Resort. Not only is this a real location you can visit in Fallout: New Vegas — you can even trade and play games, if you're feeling lucky — but it's also the headquarters of a key figure in the game: Mr. House.

Mr. House's Role

Mr. House was glimpsed in the first season, but he has a significant role in the game as the owner of the New Vegas strip. Given that Lucy, Maximus, and the Ghoul are heading to New Vegas next season, it's all but guaranteed that Mr. House will be involved.

And with it being the complete version, you don't need to worry about overlooking DLC and add-ons, as everything is part of the package.
