RAGE is the upcoming first person shooting game of id Software. Powered by the company’s new and improved id Tech 5 engine, it promises one of the hottest releases of this year. The tech demo of the game was first shown at Apple’s WWDC on June 11, 2007. It is likely to be released on September 13, 2011 in North America and on September 16, 2011 in Europe and Australia.

Game Scenario

The game scenario takes us to the future in August 23, 2037 when an asteroid strikes earth, which leads to mass destruction and inception of an apocalyptic wasteland, with a handful of survivors as its denizens. The story is based on real life analysis of an asteroid named Apophis, which is likely to come close to earth in 2036. The player, along with other survivors of the mayhem, are in a state of chaos and insecurity. The player’s major activities involve fighting bandits and mutants, although id Software has indicated a significant change in the second half of the plot.
