Amazon's Fallout Show Now Free on YouTube: A Short-Time Offer Before It Disappears into Prime Video's Foothills
In a move that could either be seen as an attempt by Amazon to boost its streaming numbers or a gesture of goodwill towards fans who haven't had the chance to watch their adaptation yet, the company has made the first season of Fallout available for free on the YouTube channel linked to its Prime Video service. The offer is only valid until February 11, meaning viewers have just over two weeks to indulge in this post-apocalyptic live-action show.
One of the standout aspects of Fallout's first season was how it successfully integrated elements from the long-running RPG series into a wildly entertaining and engaging TV experience. Standout performances by Ella Purnell as the optimistic vault-dweller and Walton Goggins as the Ghoul elevated the show, showcasing its ability to weave together the core themes of the game in a compelling way.
What makes this offer particularly intriguing is that Amazon will be adding new episodes every day ahead of next week's season two finale. This could potentially draw new viewers into the show, hoping they can jump straight into it once the latest installment becomes available. However, there's a catch – once February 11 passes, the show will become exclusive to Prime Video subscribers once again.
For those interested in getting back into the Fallout universe, this is also a great opportunity to revisit its multiplayer-focused spin-off, Fallout 76, which has seen significant improvements since its initial launch in 2018. The game's transition from a mess of a title to something more polished and engaging has been nothing short of remarkable. As part of its ongoing efforts to support the Fallout community, Bethesda is currently offering Fallout 76 as a free-to-play experience on Xbox and PC until February 5, with PlayStation players getting until February 4.
This limited-time offer provides fans with an opportunity to revisit their favorite characters or explore the world in which they reside for the first time. With both the live-action series and its multiplayer counterpart available at no cost, it's a great chance to see how these modern Fallout titles are evolving and improving over time.

It's such a great move, especially with new episodes dropping daily leading up to the season 2 finale... makes me wanna binge-watch ASAP! 
And yeah, it's a perfect excuse to revisit Fallout 76 too - who wouldn't want to play a (mostly) improved version of the game for free? 
It's like Amazon is saying "Hey, we know some people might not be into Prime Video yet, but trust us, you'll love this show". And honestly, they're right... it's pretty great! 
Then when it goes back to Prime Video, they'll be all "Sorry, you gotta pay now". 
Still, can't deny how cool it is to see both the live-action and the multiplayer game getting love. And I'm curious to see how the show's gonna keep up with season 2, hope they don't drop the ball too much 
. I mean who doesn't love free content? It's like they're saying "Hey, we got you covered... for 2 whole weeks" until the show goes behind a paywall. And can we talk about how exciting it is to see new episodes drop daily leading up to season 2? It's like Christmas in February 
️
. I'm also stoked that Fallout 76 is getting a free-to-play revamp - my friends and I spent way too many hours trying to survive in the post-apocalyptic wasteland... we're all ready for some nostalgic gaming goodness 
.
this is like, the ultimate gift for fandoms all around!
think this is a nice gesture towards fans who might not have had the chance to watch the show yet. 
. And if you're feeling nostalgic, there's also the chance to replay Fallout 76 which has come a long way since its launch 
. It's all about timing and making the most of it while it's still free, you know?
SO AMAZING THAT AMAZON IS MAKING FALLOUT FREE ON YOUTUBE!!! 
Also, great news for fans of Fallout 76 who can play it for free until Feb 5th 
This is such a cool move, especially with new episodes dropping daily until Feb 11th. I've been meaning to check out this show for ages, and now's my chance! 
& revisit Fallout 76 too! 
. I mean, can you blame anyone for wanting to jump straight into the post-apocalyptic world? The show's already got that great mix of action and drama going on. Plus, having both the live-action series and Fallout 76 available for free is just genius 
. It's like a chance to experience two different sides of the same universe, you know? Anyway, if I'm being real, I'm gonna be all over this offer ASAP! 
now u guys can watch it for free till Feb 11 
then it's gonna be only on prime video again, but i'm sure we'll get more episodes soon 
Without giving away too much of their streaming revenue, they're basically just renting out the first season of Fallout for two weeks. It's like a test run, you know? They need to see if people will stick around after watching it for free. And let's be real, folks who are going to watch it for free probably aren't going to be as invested in the show as paying customers. Plus, adding new episodes every day is just a clever way of saying "we're still trying to get you hooked". It's all about building that Prime Video user base, if you ask me 
and now they're adding new eps every day leading up to the season 2 finale... I'm def gonna be checking those out ASAP!
