Amazon has released the first full trailer for its upcoming Fallout TV series, showing more of what you can expect when the show launches next month.

We first got a look at the Fallout series back in November last year, when Vanity Fair showed off the series' Vault-Tec uniforms, its Brotherhood of Steel armor, and Walton Goggins' ghoul makeup.

Following that, the first official teaser trailer was released in December, but this first full trailer gives more of a sense of what you can expect from the Fallout TV series, right down to its Weird West (the genre, not the game)-inflected tone.

If you thought HBO's The Last of Us was a touch depressing, Fallout could well be for you.

The trailer kicks off with a typically Fallout Vault-Tec ad, in which a suit-wearing 50s-style ad man sells the promise of being "a hero" by purchasing a spot in a Vault.

We then see a world devastated by nuclear war as a Geiger counter ticks ominously in the background, and Fallout fans should be pleased to spot a sign for Shady Sands in the opening moments of the trailer.

As we hear The Ink Spots' iconic "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire", we're introduced to many of the Fallout series' most iconic sights in live-action, including Walter Goggins' aforementioned ghoul, a Mr. Handy robot (voiced, of course, by Matt Berry), and the Brotherhood of Steel.

You can check the first official full trailer for the Fallout TV series out right here.

All eight episodes of the Fallout TV series will air on April 11th, which, as Amazon points out in a press release, is one day earlier than previously announced.

Jonathan Nolan, best known as the co-creator of HBO's sci-fi series Westworld, has directed Fallout's first three episodes, and is credited as one of the "developers" of the show alongside his partner Lisa Joy.

We'll have to wait and see what the show has in store for us. Stay tuned for more on all things Fallout.
