Amazon Offers for Free Must-Play Video Game Before the Post-Apocalyptic Series Returns

For those who are subscribed to Amazon Prime and eagerly awaiting the forthcoming second season of Fallout, you'll find an excellent chance waiting for you: The company is providing a new selection of free games, including Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition.

Although it may not be strictly essential to grasping the storyline of the upcoming dystopian show, players might consider snag the other Fallout game available in Prime Gaming's October update: the equally impressive and similarly wild Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition. What's more, subscribers get to keep their downloadable games permanently with Prime Gaming, so you can dive in and enjoy whenever.

Upcoming Episodes Information

The latest installment of Fallout, starring Ella Purnell as Lucy MacLean and Walton Goggins as the enigmatic bounty hunter referred to as The Ghoul, arrives on Prime Video on Dec. 17, with season 3 announced to come after. That leaves plenty of time to start playing Fallout: New Vegas.

The game lets you explore famous settings and meet the eclectic characters that have been unveiled in Fallout season 2's trailers and early screenshots.

One of the first images shown of the newest season depicts Walton Goggins' character, pre-Wasteland, visiting the Lucky 38 Casino and Resort. This is not just a actual place explorable 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.

The Character's Importance

Mr. House was glimpsed in the first season, but he also plays a significant role in the game as the proprietor of the Las Vegas area. Considering that Lucy, Maximus, and the Ghoul are traveling to New Vegas next season, it's highly likely that Mr. House will be involved.
