RAGE 2 is real, official trailer has been leaked online [UPDATE: gameplay trailer tomorrow]

As we have already reported, Bethesda was gearing up for a RAGE 2 announcement today. And… well… the game’s official announcement trailer has been leaked online. This trailer confirms that the game is real, and that the Walmart listing was legit (at least for this particular title).

We expect Bethesda to reveal more details – and perhaps the game’s first screenshots – in a few hours so stay tuned for more. Until then, watch the leaked trailer (which does not show much). Our guess is that Bethesda may showcase some gameplay footage during its E3 2018 event.

Enjoy!

UPDATE: Bethesda has revealed the full live-action announcement trailer, and announced that a gameplay trailer will be coming out tomorrow.

    1. Its no surprise that borderlands 3 is coming lol, I knew it was coming right after playing the second one

      1. I knew it was on the way after B2 as well.

        It’s the easy way for Developers to just keep churning out the next in the series as long as the sales of the last one were good enough. Takes less creativity than to come up with a whole new idea for a game and it’s safer to bet on what has sold in the past than to risk something new.

    2. Borderlands 3 had developer interviews and showcases, so its definitely coming. The first 2 and the presequel had a critical acclaim
      Rage 2 on the other hand had only 2 leaks (amazon and this teaser) and the first didn’t share borderlands success

      1. Yes, Borderlands 2 was released in 2012, 6 years is enough time for a sequel, also the second game ended with map reviling the locations of multiple vault.

  1. Wow all that hype for few sec. teaser with real actors :laughing:
    Well… From reddit poets: “from a large cloud a small rain” :8=)
    People aleady want to spent they money after this crap lol

          1. I’ve never forgot about it, the vibe and atmosphere were pretty cool, the rest was meh.

          2. No not really, my bets is i’m probably into it for longer than you have actually.

          3. If you are ipressed by rage then you must have terreible game taste or low game standards . Or both because you are young. . . . .

          4. type “rage art” in google do you see many games that look like this? No most games nowdays are open world games with copy pasted buildings and npcs. They feel fake like they came out of a factory production line.

          5. Impressed? Sorry? Where exactly did i say i was impressed? i said it was a decent game, which is very far from being impressed. I assure you i have pretty high game standards, in fact i struggle to find something good in these last years.

          6. the level design and the art style were the best thing about it, also the characters they all felt unique and real as opposed to your typical betherda or ubisoft open world game that everything feels like it came out of a production factory line. We will never get a game like this ever again.

  2. If they handle the release better on this game then it will probably do well. They have somewhat of an uphill battle due to the complaints about the first Rage and if the Developer is smart they will pay some college kids to play through the game and find the issues BEFORE release and fix them. It wouldn’t cost that much either. Probably a good bit less than the lost sales to begin with.

    All Developers should be doing this because when they rush a game out that’s not ready then they end up with poor reviews from game sites and players. Game sites and players don’t always go back and amend their review after the game is fixed.

    1. I dont understand what you comparing here mate. Rage was made in 2011 with different people different ideas and engine. Obviously the game will be very different from rage 1.

    1. They butchered Wolfenstein, guess they’re setting new kinds of trends with their franchises.

      1. I wouldnt blame bethesda for that. Compare prey and evil within 2 with wolfenstein or how w2 had a season pass while all the other games including dishonored 2 dont have one. Machine games did this to themselves.

    2. are you really that surprised about (((bugthesda))) after (((Wolfenstien))) II the Cucklusus?

  3. CRINGE. Why all those disgusting people? Why pink? The last game had a wild west setting like wastelands 2 and new vegas. I hate the promotional stuff that bethesda puts up. Its horrible, its like they hired the PR marketing people that EA fired. Why do these cringefcks have a job?

    This is not how i would advertise this game, i would do it like the first game. Hopefully the game is nothing like this trailer.

      1. how many fcking games does avalanche make? Jesus.

        The Hunter: Primal Hunting 2015
        Rumble City 2015
        Mad Max 2015
        just cause 3 2015
        The Hunter: Call of the Wild 2017

        biomutant is apparently by another studio featering avalanche devs

          1. that doesnt exist.

            Still we got eastern europe and japan. They make decent games,. not over expensive and overmarketed either.

    1. What you comparing here? This is not even the same people, the game will be very different from rage 1.

      I dont see why you making that comparison.

      1. Because it’s ‘edgy’ to moan about every damn game on this website now. I liked the first, albeit some textures up close were off, but this could be good.

        1. Its fine to moan when we got a game to moan about, there is nothing here just a cringe traiiler

      1. Ok . Lemme brake it down .
        Same publisher . Same name . Different team .
        Thefirst rage was bad . . . So if a game will have the name RAGE in it ppl will alredy have an opinion about it .
        IF ITS A NEW TEAM . . . Why they making a sequle to a bad game ? That dont make sence . . . . Its like making No mans sky 2 . IsT a NeW sTuDiO . . . . .
        IF ITS A NEW TEAM . . .why do they make a new game and new title ?
        They will have to unF*ck the things the first game did .

        Ppl standards are so low today like its never been so low . . . . .
        And bestheda ist the one whos the best games. The best thing they did in the last years was doom and wolfenstein and even thos arent new and original titles . . . . The rest is mediocre at best . . . . .

        I have low expectations because my standards are high
        Remember when fallout 4 come out ? And opl be like OOOHHHGAME OF THE YEAR OMG 1110 IGN BESTHEDAAS BEST GAME . then witcher 3 come out and wiped his a** with it . . . . .
        Ppl have shor memory . Dont look at things out side of the box . And have low expectations . . . . .

        Thats why the games are where they are . . . . .

          1. Oh i do have low expectations it looks like this will be a reboot of the ip and propably something more generic and uninspired than the last game, it will probably be like borderlands or mad max.

      2. ThiS gAmE hAs nOtHinG tO Do WiTb ThE 1st RagE…………
        The game name is the same .
        The game have the same mad max setting. . . .
        ThiS gAmE hAs nOtHinG tO Do WiTb ThE 1st RagE…………

        The retardation is strong in this one .

        1. Actually you are the one who is stupid

          a comment above said

          “RAGE 2 is a collaboration between Avalanche Studios and id Software. Expect massive open world a la Mad Max. ;)”

          Its a reboot of the ip. Like prey

      3. So, how come Rage 2 doesn’t have anything to do with Rage? Curious, beyond the fact that they used some bright colors in the teaser? I’m going to guess you can’t name a single actual reason why the game has nothing to do with Rage and you’re just a cry baby b****

        1. ” I’m going to guess you can’t name a single actual reason why the game has nothing to do with Rage”

          a comment above said

          “RAGE 2 is a collaboration between Avalanche Studios and id Software. Expect massive open world a la Mad Max. ;)”

          Its a reboot of the ip. Like prey

          1. I know. What I meant was the trailer does not equal what the game play or game will actually be like. It just reads like what Rage was originally supposed to be before they rushed it out the door somewhat unfinished.

  4. I can’t watch the first video in this article. Probably because I’m at work right now but that 2nd Announce Trailer. Damn! That was horrible! Did that make Rage 2 more appealing to anyone here?

    Well, let’s see the gameplay trailer tomorrow then.

  5. As if we didn’t get enough pink and blue haired f*gs in gaming culture, now they need to be shoved into existing franchises despite totally clashing with the tone of the original game. Hope they improve the gameplay at least, preferably without Battle Royale.

    1. did you watch the second trailer? Its the gayest thing i have seen in a while, gayer than eurovision.

        1. Well, the game exists because they were developing it for what? 5-6 years? So they got to release it. If they make the combat like doom and the open world more…open, with the same art style as the last game, it will be better than fallout 4

          The trailer exists because the PR department that ea fired with all the cringefcks in it, somehow was hired by bethesda.

          1. so why cant i have rage instead of fallout? We gonna get a new fallout by bethesda not a game that looks like rage though, especially now that the game is essentially mad max 2015 with guns.

  6. RAGE 2 is a collaboration between Avalanche Studios and Bethesda. Expect massive open world a la Mad Max. 😉

    1. Rage 1 had interesting enviroments and unique ones. I DONT WANT ANOTHER HUGE OPEN WORLD COPY PASTED MESS.

      DONT WANT.

  7. Hahaha no it does not. They can still release a follow up to Doom(2016). Just means your baby boy self is going to have to wait longer for it.

  8. HERE WE GO AGAIN.

    Rage 2 was under development back in 2011, after rage came out, it was put on hold due to low sales in order to focus on doom, which was canceled because it looked too much like metro 2033 and call of duty than doom.

    Rage 2 was in development for 5-6 years, studios are always working in multiple projects. Techland has worked on 3 projects at the same time, same with flyingwildhog, rebellion has worked on 5 projects on the same time, obviously AAA devs can work on far more and bigger ones.

    Doom 2 has probably been in development for a year or so. Do you want a sequel or a far cry 4.5 like far cry 5 was, heck not even 4.5, more like 4.3. Doom 2 is coming its not ready yet.

    You acting like the youtube comments on new order and evil within trailers on bethesda’s youtube channel

    “THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANT I WANT FALLOUT 4/ ELDER OF SCROLLS 6”

    This is how you sound like.

    Finally why the flying fck do you compare this with rage from 2010, different devs, different engine different focus. You acting like you played assasin creed 2 and we getting brotherhood, we dont, this game has been in development for a very long time, it wont be like the previous game. It will have a good engine, different combat, bigger maps, maybe they made the combat more like doom and you can freely move around instead of sprinting from cover to cover. Maybe its coop like boderlands. We dont know how the game plays we will know tommorow.

  9. Because people automatically associate it with SJW’s because people are cry babies who can’t stop associating colors with politics. Despite the fact that Avalanche Studios has never done anything that would involved “SJW” tier politics or agendas.

    Essentially what I’m telling you is that these people are a bunch of dumb f**** who can’t wait for the game play trailer to release tomorrow.

    1. Things escalated quickly, now its not even the same game. I was right, this is not a rage 2, this is made by avalance and probably will be mad max 2015 with guns.

  10. Where is id Software ? At least Avalanche studio is fine as a successor.

    As for the art style, well, look how well are doing Overwatch and Fortnite. That’s what the majority want no matter what the hardcore gamers like us thinks.

    Also, I enjoy this “Live” trailer, reminds me of the fun commercials from the 90s, same vibe and they know when to stop. I see nothing wrong so far. Let’s see the game now.
