The deals come as Amazon’s Fallout series has fans hailing it as “one of the best video-game adaptations” ever and “on par with The Last of Us.” Starring Ella Purnell and Walton Goggins, the series follows a new and original story set in the world of the games that takes place 200 years after the apocalypse as a Vault Dweller must traverse the irradiated United States in search of her kidnapped father.
