Id Softwares new IP that has repeatedly been hinted towards is named Rage, game developer legend and programmer John Carmack revealed at today's QuakeCon festivities.
"Everybody knows we're going to do a good job with the run and gun action stuff...but we are branching out", Carmack said and noted id's love for a Road Warrior-like post-apocalyptic atmosphere a la Mad Max.
Id Tech 5
Rage will use the recently unveiled id Tech 5, which CEO Todd Hollenshead claims will run equally well on all the hardware platform, with a targeted 60 frames per second.
An open world
Rage will have players driving across an open world between settlements, fighting monsters, mutants and an oppressive government. You will be able to customize your vehicle throughout the game and play co-op multiplayer with your friends.
Rage
There are several reason for why Id software decided to name the game Rage:
- It fits into id's traditionally terse, one-syllable game names. The game is set after a comet destroys civilization, and your character finds himself aiding settlements and villages in their battle against an oppressive regime. Hence, you will rage against the machine.
- The game also features road combat and you can experience road rage.
- You can't spell the word "garage" without "rage", and you will be able to have a garage full of vehicles that you customize. - Tim Willits and CEO Todd Hollenshead
When it's done
The title will ship, in traditional id-style, "when it's done" and will come to PC, Mac, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 on two DVD, with Blue-ray distribution planned for PC, Mac and PS 3.
