Bethesda Softworks, id Software, and Avalanche Studios have dropped the official launch trailer for Rage 2, and it’s all about catching new players up on the series universe and its brand of humor.
The trailer above recaps the events of the last game, as well as the fact that many fans complained about its ending being bad. Although it’s speculated Rage 2 will predominately follow along with its own plot, the trailer also hints at things to come as well.
The official synopsis of Rage 2 reads as follows:
"An asteroid has annihilated 80% of the earth’s population, and humanity’s numbers are dwindling. Ruthless and bloodthirsty gangs roam the open roads and the tyrannical Authority seek to rule with an iron fist. As Walker, the last Ranger of the wasteland and a threat to their power, you have been robbed of your home and left for dead. Now you’ll have to rage for justice and freedom. With ludicrous vehicle combat, super-powered first-person mayhem, and an open world full of emergent madness, you will tear across an unforgiving wasteland battling sadistic gangs to find the tools and tech needed to crush the oppressive rule of The Authority once and for all."
Check out the visuals above and cop Rage 2 when it arrives May 14 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Okay, this game looks absolutely effing mental and I can’t wait to play it… And that has nothing to do with the fact that it’s the first time I’ll be hearing my voice in a video game! https://t.co/4b8tswYyV9
