Fallout is officially one of Prime Video’s biggest hits ever, according to a new press release from Amazon that explains how the live-action series based on Bethesda’s best-selling RPGs managed to pull in an impressive number of viewers within its first 16 days of availability, with 65 million viewers worldwide having tuned in to the show to some extent since its premiere on April 10, cementing it as the most-watched title on Prime Video since 2022’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The second season of Fallout, which Amazon MGM Studios announced on April 18, is expected to take viewers to New Vegas, the location popularized by Obsidian Entertainment’s 2010 spin-off game.
Amazon…says the show is its most-watched ever among adults 18-34, with 60% of the show’s audience coming from outside the United States. In particular, the UK, France, and Brazil have all proven to be hubs for the show’s popularity. It should be noted, however, that Amazon has not released any data on how viewers are counted, especially when it comes to completion of the show. Therefore, it is unknown if a viewer is counted once they have completed a single episode, multiple episodes, finished the season, etc.
