Even former Bethesda developer Jonah Lobe expressed her high hopes for the upcoming series. Lobe previously worked for Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 of the game series.
As someone who worked hard on Fallout 3 and 4, I’m desperately hoping that this will be good. And I believe it just might be!!

'Fallout' TV Series' Details So Far
The series will follow the story of Lucy after a nuclear war breaks out across the Earth. Set in the year 1977, she welcomes the era of robots, hovercars, and other sci-fi-related charms that can be seen in the games.
"The games are about the culture of division and haves and have-nots that, unfortunately, have only gotten more and more acute in this country and around the world over the last decades," showrunner Jonathan Nolan stated.
Lucy will have to navigate her way outside the comfort of the vault where she lived her whole life. Despite her strong characteristics, she will face challenges that she has never seen before.
Nolan also emphasized that the series will focus on Lucy's "collision with the hard reality of other people's experiences and what happened to the people who, frankly, were left behind, left to die."
