Prime Video has moved up the release of the final two episodes of Fallout Season 2. The streaming platform confirmed the schedule change, allowing fans to watch the climax of the story earlier than planned.
The decision, announced just hours before Episode 7 was set to stream, shifts the final episodes from Wednesday to Tuesday nights for US viewers. According to the official announcement, the change was made “due to strong participation and interest” from the audience.

Fallout Season 2 will now conclude on Tuesday, February 3, 2026. This is a shift from the previously scheduled date of Wednesday, February 4.

What to Expect as the Season Nears Its End
Fallout Season 2 has followed Lucy MacLean (Ella Purnell) and The Ghoul (Walton Goggins) on a journey to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas. The season has heavily drawn from the beloved video game Fallout: New Vegas, introducing factions like Caesar’s Legion and characters such as Robert House, played by Justin Theroux.
The sixth episode left major storylines at a critical point. Lucy confronted her father, Hank MacLean (Kyle MacLachlan), in a Vault-Tec lab, leading to a tense standoff. Meanwhile, The Ghoul recovered from a near-fatal injury, and the conflict over the Cold Fusion device intensified. The final two episodes are expected to resolve these high-stakes plots.
Fallout has already been renewed for a third season. Executive producer Todd Howard of Bethesda Game Studios confirmed that writing for the next season is currently underway.
