Season 2 for Fallout has not yet been officially confirmed, but the showrunners of the series are already thinking about it a lot. For example, what kind of creatures they want to appear in the (hopefully) upcoming episodes.
A little tip: There was already a pretty clear indication of this in the finale of the first season. If you don't want to anticipate the surprise for season 2, it's here again an express spoiler warning!
Lucy and Co. will have to deal with these beasts in season 2
What exactly is it about? You may have already thought of it: Deathclaws.

If there's one thing that's sure to ruin your day in Fallout, it's a Deathclaw.
Probably the deadliest creatures in the entire Fallout universe didn't make an appearance in Season 1, but there was at least a small allusion to it: In episode 8, the skull of a Deathclaw can be clearly seen.
In case you're wondering what deathclaws are all about: These are huge, reptilian creatures that were created by the US military before nuclear war. After the bombs fell, deathclaws escaped into the wasteland and fought their way to the top of just about every food chain.
Deathclaws are considered incredibly tough and deadly in just about every game. Only the most experienced and well-equipped players with appropriate weapons and armor should face the monsters, which were once harmless three-horned chameleons.
Anyone who has ever been surprised by a Deathclaw in a Fallout game is likely to react like Knight Titus from the Brotherhood of Steel to his encounter with a Yao Guai.

The Fallout series is much more important to the games than I thought! (Without spoilers)
Deathclaws confirmed for Season 2
In conversation with TheWrap Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet now reveal that deathclaws were not seen in the first season for good reason. Because in her opinion, her series must treat the appearance of one of these creatures with due respect and not waste it.
Of course we wanted deathclaws [in Staffel 1 auftreten lassen], but don't just throw it out there either. This is such an important part [von Fallout] and we wanted to save something for Season 2 so we could do that properly. We didn't want to add this to the massive worldbuilding we did in the first season. With Season 2, we're definitely excited to finally tackle one of the games' most iconic elements. […]
We didn't want the series to feel like the writers spent ten seconds reading a Fallout Wikipedia page. […] It was important to us to go deeper in Season 1. We hope we haven't pissed off any fans with this, because not really every aspect [von Fallout in der ersten Staffel] plugged. We hope you'll stick around and pray with us for a second season so we can catch up.
