Fallout: Nuka Break is a live-action fan-made web series made by Wayside Creations and set in the Fallout video game universe. Its direct setting is derived from both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. Nuka Break features three main characters, a "Vault dweller, his ghoul companion, and a slave they freed from New Vegas". Along with the sets, puppets are used for some of the scenes, while CGI is used for the gun battles and other scenes.[1] The series features actor Doug Jones as a guest star, playing Mayor Conners,[2] and voice actor Vic Mignogna as the merchant/narrator.
The series was originally conceived as a film titled Fallout: Nuka Break – The Movie, which was released in early 2011 on YouTube. The film was so popular that Wayside Creations, a non-profit made up of "a team of Fallout fans", decided to turn it into a full miniseries, with the first episode being released in September 2011.[3][4] A second season, funded via Kickstarter, was released on October 28, 2013.[5] Wayside also made a second film called Red Star, which is set between the original fan film and the first season. Another project, a three-part miniseries called Tales from the Wasteland, was successfully funded via Kickstarter.[6]
Members of the original cast and writing team resigned from their affiliation with Wayside Creations and weren't involved with Tales from the Wasteland or future Wayside projects.[7] Wayside released a prequel series Fallout: The Wanderer focusing on the Ranger character in three episodes by early 2018.[8] In 2024, in the lead up to the Fallout tv show, Zach announced a Kickstarter for a new short film sequel to the series titled Fallout: Breaking.
