Prime Video's Fallout television series has been a massive hit. In fact, it's been so popular that the streaming service already confirmed that a second season is on the way.

Although nothing has been revealed about the upcoming sophomore season, executive producer Jonathan Nolan and co-showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner have revealed that they already have ideas for where the series can go.

The first season of Fallout featured plenty of easter eggs and references to the video game franchise that it is based on. And in the final moment of the Season 1 finale, fans were given a glimpse of what awaits when we return to the wasteland. Towards the end of the season finale, we are shown a skeleton skull of a giant creature with large horns and fanged teeth.

Anyone who played the games immediately recognized it to be the skull of a Deathclaw — one of the most terrifying and deadly creatures you can come across in the Fallout video games.

While we never got to see a live Deathclaw in the first season, co-showrunner Graham Wagner has confirmed that they will be present in the upcoming second season.

“We wanted to get Deathclaws, but we didn’t want to just throw it away. It’s such a monumental piece,” co-showrunner Graham Wagner told TheWrap. “We want to save some something for Season 2 to be able to do it properly, not just added on to the massive world building we had to do already in Season 1. So Season 2, we’re very excited to finally tackle one of the most iconic elements of the games.”

In addition to Deathclaws, executive producer Jonathan Nolan may have hinted at a possible new locale we'll be visiting in Season 2 of Fallout. Although he didn't confirm what it would be, Nolan teased "one locale in particular that is close to my heart that I'd be excited to explore if we got a chance to."

Again, towards the end of the Season 1 finale, we see Hank (Kyle MacLachlan) walking towards the outskirts of a cityscape that very much resembles New Vegas from the beloved video game Fallout: New Vegas. Given the setting of the first season, it wouldn't be a stretch to see the show visit this iconic location from the game.

While Fallout featured an original story and characters, it took plenty of inspiration from the games. I assume the second season will do the same, although we can also expect to see more references to the games as well.
