Bethesda showed off new gameplay footage from “Rage 2,” the upcoming sequel from “Just Cause” developer Avalanche Studios, during the publisher’s E3 press conference Sunday night. The title was first announced just a few weeks ago.
“Rage 2” is an open-world shooter set in a wild post-apocalyptic wasteland. A demo build of the game is playable at E3 this week.
“Go anywhere, shoot anything, and explode everything in ‘Rage 2,’ the post-post-apocalyptic brainchild of the creators of the first-person shooter at id Software and the masters of open-world chaos at Avalanche Studios,” Bethesda said in a press release. “Face off against vicious and bloodthirsty gangs, monstrous mutants, and the tyrannical Authority in an epic struggle for survival and freedom.”
It’s slated for release in spring 2019.
