These set photos appear to have originally been uploaded via the Fallout TV show subreddit, but the original post was seemingly removed from that site soon thereafter. The photos themselves then made their way to Twitter and other social media platforms (we first spotted them when they were shared by Twitter user, LoneVaultWanderer). While many of the originally shared photos have since been removed from that site as well, here’s a currently active (at the time of this writing) look at the photos in question: In those pictures, you can clearly see a propaganda poster featuring the famous Vault Boy, a nursery, a hallway, a classroom, and what appears to be a common area converted into a farm. Many commenters are already praising the set makers, as the show’s locales look like they were ripped right out of a Fallout game. More importantly, eagle-eyed viewers think the leaks have potentially spoiled elements of the show’s setting. In the final leaked image (the common area photo), you can clearly see the number “32” plastered on the set’s column. This label is mirrored on the walls in the nursery set. Since vaults in Fallout games typically have their numbers stamped everywhere (usually on doors) audiences have concluded the show’s vault in question is “Vault 32.” If you never heard of that vault before, that’s because it has yet to show up in any other piece of Fallout media. Longtime fans probably remember the sterile Vault 112 (which trapped everyone in a simulation), as well as the infamous Vault 22 and its deadly spore zombies. Any one of Fallout’s existing vaults could have been used for the show, but the creators have seemingly opted for one that fans have never heard of, let alone visited. That doesn’t necessarily mean that the vault (or the show) is non-canon, but rather that it’s simply going to utilize a location we don’t know much about based on the existing story and lore of the games. However, that vault number might hint at where the show will take place geographically. Well, aside from the series standard “nuclear wasteland,” that is. The most popular theory at this time is that the Fallout show will be set in New Vegas or possibly somewhere else within Nevada. His reasoning is based on some good old inference. According to the Fallout wiki, vaults are numbered based on their relative location. All the vaults in Fallout 3 and 4, which take place in Washington D.C. and Boston, Massachusetts, respectively, have higher-numbered vaults such as Vault 101 and Vault 111. Meanwhile, Fallout 2 and New Vegas take place in and around Nevada and feature lower-numbered vaults like Vault 8 and Vault 11. In fact, players can find Vault 34 in New Vegas, which implies the upcoming Fallout show’s Vault 32 might be somewhere nearby.
