Amazon has released the official trailer for the highly-anticipated TV series adaptation of the hit video game Fallout.
The new series comes from Westworld creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, who will serve as executive producers. It is produced in collaboration with the game's developer Bethesda Game Studios.
It also follows the recent trend of hit video games being adapted into big-budget TV series with HBO's The Last of Us being the most notable example and receiving a lot of acclaim since its release early last year.

Fallout TV Series Releases Official Trailer
The official trailer for Fallout gave us our first look at the TV show adaptation's take on the post-apocalyptic retrofuturistic setting that the video game is famously known for.
It follows Lucy (played by Ella Purnell), who decides to leave Vault 33 and venture into the wasteland as she struggles to adjust to her new life in a world that is still grappling with the effects of the nuclear war hundreds of years ago.
We also got our glimpse at Ghoul (Walton Goggins), a mysterious bounty hunter with a notable deformed face who has his own agenda in the post-apocalyptic world.
The trailer ended with the reveal that all episodes will drop at the same time this April 11 on Prime Video.
Unlike the other adaptations, Amazon's Fallout will not be based on any existing source material in the game and it will mostly be an original story that is within the same continuity as the franchise.
Aside from Purnell and Goggins, the stacked cast also includes Moisés Arias, Kyle MacLachlan, Sarita Choudhury, Michael Emerson, Leslie Uggams, Frances Turner, Dave Register, Zach Cherry, Johnny Pemberton, Rodrigo Luzzi, Annabel O'Hagan, and Xelia Mendes-Jones.
Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serve as the main showrunners of the series while Nolan will also direct the first three episodes.
