Prime Video is preparing to unveil new details about Fallout season 2, and the timing strongly suggests that a full trailer is on the way. A scheduled video titled Please Stand By is set to go live on the platform’s YouTube channel today at 7 p.m. UAE time. For now, the standard Fallout-themed placeholder card is all that’s visible, but the branding mirrors how Amazon promoted both the first season’s trailers and the early teasers for season 2.
With the next chapter of the series arriving on December 17, the window for releasing a final trailer is narrowing. Using a familiar marketing cue from the games helps Prime Video drive anticipation without revealing much upfront, a tactic it leaned on heavily during season 1’s rollout. Given the scheduling, expectations for a new trailer are reasonable, even if Amazon has avoided confirming specifics ahead of the broadcast.
The reveal is also part of a two-step promotional push. An additional video, set to debut an hour earlier, is titled Join Brain On A Roomba Inside Vault 31. Viewers will remember this odd fixture from the season 1 finale, where it trapped Norm MacLean in Vault 31 — a plotline that remains unfinished and will likely carry into season 2. The video may run on a continuous loop showing the robot moving through the vault, but it could also serve as a short refresher video summarizing the season 1 events tied to that storyline.
There is also the possibility that the Vault 31 teaser will contain a more pointed hint about season 2’s cast or trajectory. Actor Macauley Culkin has been rumored to be involved in the new season, although Amazon hasn’t announced his casting or confirmed his character. If his role ties into Norm’s captivity or Vault 31’s operations, today’s teaser could be the first time audiences see a piece of that narrative. Still, viewers should temper expectations — Amazon often uses these early drops to reinforce atmosphere rather than showcase significant plot reveals.
With season 2 expected to expand the world introduced in the first run — including the New Vegas storyline teased during previous promotional beats — the upcoming trailer is likely to be the most informative glimpse yet into how Prime Video is shaping its next stage of the adaptation. The series remains one of the platform’s most-watched originals, and the steady release of short teasers, countdowns, and thematic videos reflects an effort to maintain that momentum without overexposing major plot turns.
