The Fallout sequence from Amazon isn’t executed teasing followers over the potential canonicity of Obsidian’s beloved New Vegas. After fixed questions on whether or not that recreation even existed within the present’s world (which had been fairly definitively answered by the primary season’s last episode), the second season is gearing as much as deliver New Vegas into the fold in an enormous approach. That features revealing that New Vegas’s large dangerous, Mr. Home, will play a task. After all, that solely raises extra questions on what’s and isn’t canon.
The information comes from a Selection interview with showrunners and sequence creators Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet. Within the video interview, Wagner states that Las Vegas is Robert Home’s city and that Mr. Home “shall be concerned” within the second season. Robert Home runs New Vegas within the recreation and is an integral a part of any story within the setting. Since New Vegas seems within the last shot of season one, we all know the second season will characteristic the enduring location in an enormous approach. If Mr. Home is concerned, it signifies that the present will seemingly have to make one specific ending of New Vegas canon: the one by which the participant sides with Mr. Home within the battle for the Hoover Dam.
This ending establishes that Mr. Home will proceed to rule New Vegas within the years following the sport, with the town described as a despotic imaginative and prescient of pre-war glory by which the streets are “orderly, environment friendly, chilly.” Nonetheless, if the present takes the identical storytelling strategy in season two because it did in season one, there may be another choice. Mr. Home may seem in flashbacks, additional revealing the machinations that led to the apocalypse within the first place. If the present takes the flashback route, it may characteristic Mr. Home whereas persevering with to play coy concerning the particular occasions of New Vegas to maintain every participant’s ending equally canonical, for now.
Whichever ending of the sport the present chooses to go along with (if any particularly), it nonetheless received’t reply the query of what occurred to New Vegas after the sport. The present takes place 15 years after New Vegas, and in that glimpse we get of it within the first season’s last moments, we see it as a ruined metropolis bereft of its signature lights and splendor. What occurred in these 15 years stays a thriller the second season will seemingly dig into, and whether or not in flashback or not, Mr. Home is certain to play an enormous position in revealing the solutions.
