Fallout season 2 episode 3 release schedule explained

Fallout Season 2 Episode 3 drops with clockwork precision, landing on Prime Video at 6 pm PT and 9 pm ET on Wednesday, December 31. Across the globe, the wasteland wakes at different hours, from an early 8 am start in the UK to a 1.30 pm afternoon stream in India.

Europe catches it midmorning, while Tokyo tunes in by early evening and Sydney wraps the day at 7 pm. Wherever the screen lights up, anticipation travels faster than radiation through the wasteland.

Fallout Season 2 sticks to a tight eight episode run, mirroring the first season and proving that restraint can be powerful. The measured rollout stretches the journey across two full months, letting tension simmer rather than vanish in a weekend binge.

That steady burn leads to a February 4, 2026, finale, not a rushed goodbye. With Season 3 already confirmed and creative confidence growing, the wasteland feels far from finished. With a stellar cast set to bring it all to life, the journey feels even richer.
