Avalanche Studios and id Software’s
RAGE 2 is set in 2165, thirty years after the events of the first game. That big time gap between
RAGE and its upcoming sequel allows the developers to give free rein to their imagination, as the wasteland that used to be a lifeless, brown, and overall uninteresting place has changed, teaming with colors and featuring blooming plants, mutated beasts, and forgotten cities.
RAGE 2 will allow you to explore this colorful westland as Walker, who sets out to take down the villainous Authority once and for all. He’s the last of his kind, equipped with the tech and special abilities that have turned into a myth in the game's universe that's powered by Avalanche's own Apex Engine that debuted in last month's
Just Cause 4, giving you a chance to wreak havoc in smooth 60FPS.
According to the developers, the sandbox extravaganza won't be trying to experiment with the already established (and working well) technology, and will focus on delivering a mesmerizing gameplay experience instead. YouTuber Quake ChampionsPRO has uploaded over 13 minutes of never-stopping
RAGE 2 action, and you can take a look at their explosive action-packed walkthrough down below:
In the year 2185, humanity’s numbers are dwindling. Ruthless and bloodthirsty gangs roam the open roads and the tyrannical Authority seek to rule who remains with an iron fist. You are Walker, the last Ranger of the wasteland. Robbed of your home and left for dead, you’ll tear across an unforgiving wasteland battling bloodthirsty gangs to find the tools and tech needed to take the fight to The Authority and crush their oppressive rule once and for all!
RAGE 2 will be released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on May 14, 2019.
