RAGE 2

The original RAGE, launched eight years ago, was a tour de force from the madmen behind hit FPS games like Quake and the legendary FPS game, Doom. It pits players on a role of an Arkist surviving in a world decimated by an asteroid and reign down destruction against enemy factions and a ruthless organization known as The Authority. This cult classic game really spells madness...right up to the endgame that left them wondering what might have been because once it's over, it's over, and they'll have to do it all over again. So, with the lesson learned, the men from Bethesda decided to call on the best people possible to create a long-awaited sequel to the cult-classic FPS and this time, they've got it right.

Made in collaboration with two of the maddest game developers in the world, id Software and Avalanche Studios, RAGE 2 is the long-awaited sequel to the original that is set three decades after the destruction left from the first one and in this game, players are back in the wasteland as the new main character, the last surviving Ranger named Walker who lost his home and now extracts revenge against menacing factions and in due course, destroy The Authority once and for all.

With new and returning characters aside, RAGE 2 is surely be a slaughterfest fans wouldn't want to miss thanks to new and exciting features fans and newcomers can't wait to get their hands on. Because the new main character is an Arkist, just like the previous protagonist from the previous RAGE, Walker possesses destructive abilities and some destructive arsenal of weapons which allows him to carve his own path of destruction against mutants, enemies, even The Authority. They're all upgradable, of course, to make it even more powerful against stronger enemies you might come across later.

With the right abilities and the right weapons, you can create devastating combo attacks that can easily to turn the tables in battles and when the right time comes, you can engage Overdrive, which makes your weapons and abilities more powerful as well as taking advantage of sick perks such as faster movement and health regeneration.

Believe it or not, the Wingstick from the previous RAGE is back and it's even more lethal than ever thanks to its new homing feature that can home in through enemies and can be upgraded for even more explosive effects. Everybody loves a powered-up Wingstick, right?

While taking a break from all of the main missions, the open world possibilities in RAGE 2 are near endless as you can take on various things to do in the wasteland such as toppling out enemy convoy, take on a wave of mutants in Mutant Bash, race, and more. There's so much you can do while warming yourself up for bigger ones later. On foot, behind the wheel, feel free to do whatever you want.

If RAGE 2's becoming too bored because of you being too basic, don't worry because somewhere in the Wasteland lies the mysterious being known as the Wasteland Wizard. Apart from selling outrageously-priced goodies, he can sell you some cheats that will make the gameplay even more exciting. Cheats such as the hilarious "He's on Fire" cheat, the one-hit kill cheat, the electricity cheat, the one where you can eject the Phoenix vehicle instead of you up in the air, and many more. There will be more post-launch that will make RAGE 2 even more rewarding and hilarious so keep an eye out on them later on.

Of course, just because you've done RAGE 2 doesn't mean you're done with it, there will be various contents coming your way later on with global community challenges to take on, new cheat codes, new weapons, and two new expansions coming up later on, with the first expansion "Rise of the Ghosts" coming this summer. These things will keep RAGE 2 even more RAGE-ier than ever.

So, thanks to new and explosive ways to carve your own destructive path in the wasteland, RAGE 2 is becoming the ultimate action thriller game you can't wait to get your sadistic hands on and trust them, this is the game you won't "rage quit" on because once you get hooked on this explosive sequel, you will always come back for more destruction until your head hurts really bad.

Not only it's better than the original RAGE eight years ago but this is surely one of the most insane post-apocalyptic shooter adventure game of the year, full stop. So insane, you'd really want to be like them for sure even until the endgame.
