In a clever holiday-season promotion, Samsung has partnered with Amazon, Bethesda Softworks, and Xbox to offer the entire first season of the hit Prime Video series Fallout completely free on Samsung TV Plus, the company's ad-supported streaming platform.
Starting December 3, 2025, and running through December 25, viewers with compatible Samsung smart TVs, Galaxy devices, Smart Monitors, or even Family Hub refrigerators can binge the post-apocalyptic adventure without any subscription - perfect timing to catch up before Season 2 premieres exclusively on Prime Video on December 17.
The critically acclaimed adaptation of Bethesda's iconic video game franchise exploded onto screens last year, earning widespread praise for its blend of dark humor, ultra-violence, and faithful recreation of the retro-futuristic wasteland.
With a 93% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and frequent mentions as one of the best video game adaptations ever made, Fallout quickly became Prime Video's flagship original, outshining even big-budget efforts like The Rings of Power in viewer engagement and cultural impact.
This limited-time giveaway turns Samsung devices into a one-stop hub for the *Fallout* universe. Beyond watching Season 1 ad-supported, users can seamlessly transition to gaming via the built-in Samsung Gaming Hub.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can cloud-stream Fallout 76, including its massive new Burning Springs expansion - the largest update in the game's history - which adds a sprawling new region in post-nuclear Ohio and even features Walton Goggins reprising his role as The Ghoul from the show.
The collaboration extends further with co-branded promotions, including first-look teasers for Season 2 on Samsung channels and high-profile digital billboards in New York's Times Square. Season 2 promises to escalate the stakes, venturing into the Mojave wasteland and the ruins of New Vegas, building directly on the first season's shocking finale.
Samsung dominates the U.S. television market with the highest share of smart TV sales, making this an ideal platform to reach millions of potential viewers. The move not only drives eyeballs to Prime Video for the new season but also showcases Samsung's ecosystem advantages - combining premium display technologies like Neo QLED 8K and OLED for stunning visuals with integrated streaming and cloud gaming.

As cross-media tie-ins become increasingly common, this partnership highlights how tech giants, streamers, and game publishers are blurring lines to create immersive entertainment experiences—all from the comfort of your living room screen.
