Season one of the Fallout series adapted original storylines within the Fallout universe without following any specific game's plot. The final shot of Season 1 pointed the action toward New Vegas, the setting of Fallout: New Vegas. Season 2 Episode 1 introduces clear Fallout 4 references: a flashback through a Boston-like suburban neighborhood mirroring Fallout 4's opening, a cameo by the Vault-Tec salesman, and Vault 24 behind the Starlight Drive-In projector screen. A trailer line invoking "the Commonwealth" reinforces Fallout 4 connections. Game director Todd Howard confirmed Season 3 is being written, raising the possibility of a Fallout 4-inspired storyline.
"In Season 2 Episode 1 of Fallout, we see a flashback where Cooper Howard and his daughter are driving through a suburban neighborhood that looks very familiar. It seems to be the exact same layout as the Boston neighborhood seen at the start of Fallout 4, and there's even a cameo by the Vault-Tec salesman who visits you as you create your character."
"Later, Lucy and the Ghoul encounter Vault 24 behind the projector screen of the Starlight Drive-In, another Fallout 4 location where players can build a settlement. New Vegas has its own drive-in, the California Sunset, so calling this one the Starlight is a pointed Fallout 4 reference. Finally, in the trailer for the rest of the season shown at the end of the episode, a character mentions "the Commonwealth," the region where Fallout 4 is set."
