You can kill Mr. House in the game (I sure did), but that could probably be written around for the show. The post-war scene from the trailer might be a flashback to a time after the war but <em>before <\/em>the events of New Vegas, right? Or who knows: maybe there was a backup of Mr. House&#8217;s brain on a hard drive somewhere, and in the years since the end of New Vegas someone restored it to the Lucky 38.

You can&#8217;t kill the DJ in Fallout: New Vegas, though, because he&#8217;s not actually alive to begin with. Mr. New Vegas is a voice on the radio created by Mr. House, not a real person\u2014though that voice is played by a real person: legendary Vegas crooner Wayne Newton.<\/p>\n<p>It feels pretty likely that Mr. New Vegas will be heard at some point in Fallout Season 2: Wayne Newton seems like he&#8217;d be game for just about anything, and even in his 80s he&#8217;s still performing both in Vegas and around the country. I think there&#8217;s a decent chance he reprises his role.<\/p>\n<p>(Three Dog was replaced by an intern, by the way.

Trejo voiced ghoul Raul Tejada in Fallout: New Vegas, who wasn&#8217;t just an NPC but an awesome player companion. And there&#8217;s no reason he wouldn&#8217;t still be around Vegas 20 years later: he&#8217;s a ghoul and was already over 200 years old in the game. Surviving is what he does.<\/p>\n<p>The only reason I&#8217;d say Raul isn&#8217;t a lock to show up in Season 2 is that we&#8217;ve already got a ghoul with a pre-war history wandering the wastes\u2014Goggins&#8217; Ghoul\u2014so having another similar archetype around might be a bit redundant.

I&#8217;m not sure Veronica would still be with the Brotherhood after all this time, but in New Vegas she was keen on reforming them.<\/p>\n<p>Veronica was voiced by Felicia Day, who would be great fun to see in the show\u2014and she also wielded a power fist, which we briefly see Lucy using in the trailer.
