Fallout TV Series In the Works - Confirmed by Amazon Studios!

A Fallout TV series is officially underway and is being worked on through an epic collaboration between Amazon Studios and Fallout. All of this was revealed in a trailer published on Twitter as viewed below: 

Announced as an Amazon Original, meaning that it will only be made available to Amazon Prime subscribers. The studios of Kilter Films and Bethesda Games Studios have both publically revealed their involvement in its production. Kilter Films are mainly known for their production of Westworld and Person of Interest - both being critically acclaimed television series. The same producers will be on board for the Fallout TV series. 

For those who don't know, Fallout is a very popular action RPG set in a post-apocalyptic era following a nuclear fallout. With an aged aesthetic, despite the failure of Fallout 76, the series has found success with earlier titles as supported by the developers of Bethesda. Until now, the titles haven't had the chance to branch out to something greater - take The Witcher series for example by CD Project Red and its success as a series. 

Will the Fallout TV series be successful? Personally, I believe that the biggest challenge will come in developing an enticing and interesting story. The games are known to be large, arid and vacant wastelands - especially Fallout 76 which launched without a single NPC insight. On the other hand, features such as the Fallout suit, crafting epic weapons and fighting radioactive beasts should be present to please the gaming community and have them on board. 

Of course, they need to go beyond the games and develop ideas which complement and add to the series instead of copying and implementing more of the same. Although I'm no fan of the Fallout series, this is a massive opportunity to revive the community following the bomb of Fallout 76 and to also set up the next title for success.
