Rage 2 Will Have Its Own Version Of DOOM’s BFG

We’ve been learning a lot about Rage 2 in the last several months and the latest title from id Software seems to be hitting a lot of those sweet spots for fans of action. In the most recent episode of Inside Xbox, it was confirmed that the colorful wasteland will offer something that DOOM fans are intimately familiar with: the BFG.

DOOM fans love it, and Rage 2 players will too because the studio confirmed that the BFG 9000 will “of course” be available for people to do some major damage with. The small bit of gameplay were able to see in the latest Inside Xbox ‘Road to E3’ showed off more of the game’s terrain, vehicles, and naturally – weaponry. It’s just a small taste of the massive adventure coming next month where literally everything is trying to kill you. 

Giants, “smug cliffs,” BFGs, and so much more await when Rage 2 releases on May 14th for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC players. 

For more about the game before its arrival next month: 

“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,” Bethesda said about Rage 2. “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.”
