That rumoured RAGE sequel is looking more and more likely by the day, as Bethesda has dropped another hint that a follow-up to the first-person shooter is on the way. Hot on the heels of a Wal-Mart leak, the publisher resurrected the franchise’s dormant social media page. Today it’s shared a photograph of Big Ben smeared with the same kind of pink paint it’s been using on the title’s Twitter account.
Some believe that the time on the clock, 5:14, is alluding to some form of 14th May reveal. Even more curiously, UK developer Rebellion has been interacting with the RAGE Twitter account, leading some to speculate that it may be involved with the project in some way. The Oxford-based studio has been busy with titles like Strange Brigade so we reckon it’s a stretch to expect it to be making this unexpected sequel – but with original developer id Software presumably working on DOOM 2, stranger things have happened.

So, are we just not getting a single player Elder Scrolls game this gen or what? I thought it was a no-brainer at the start of this gen but if another E3 comes and goes with no news my hopes will be about gone.
Sorry to go off topic...
I'm pretty hyped for this one. Watched the latest Mad Max recently and it was amazing. And I remember Rage was good fun. I hope they have a Nightmare difficulty similar to Doom.
They seem to be having fun with it at least
@Splat Oh yeah I even forgot about Elder Scrolls Man Skyrim Came out in 2011 I think...Damn 7 Years!
@Splat As much as I like the idea of a Rage 2, Another Elder Scrolls would have me ALOT more excited!Couldn't get into Elder Scrolls online at all,I need Skyrim 2!
@Splat Bethesda seem all about short periods between announcement and release these days. Anything they announce at E3 I bet will launch before December.
I remember Evil Within 2 and Wolfie 2 were heavily rumoured in 2016 but we didn't see a thing. Then they both showed up at E3 2017 and were out months later.
Look at the time between Fallout 4 announcement and launch.
Having said all that, I wouldn't be too surprised if we didn't get a new Scrolls game until "next gen", however that ends up turning out. Plus no one seems to actually bloody buy any of the quality games they put out aside from Fallout and Elder Scrolls so maybe they will be forced to release one for some easy money.
@LieutenantFatman I'll never get tired of watching Fury Road. That and Dredd are the two best action movies since Terminator 2.
I wonder if Bethesda will also announce Starchild and Doom 2.
I remember buying a second hand Xbox and I think Rage was the first game I played on it. I'm pretty sure it was dull and mostly painful in a bad way. Post-apocalyptic setting is always a plus and sometimes sequels work, so why not or whatever.
Think I'm one of the few that would really love Rage 2 to be real, yeah the first was flawed but it still had it's moments
@Splat You'll have your Skyrim remaster and like it!
Giz a new Elder Scrolls(single player), Fallout and Dishonoured game, Beth. And for goodness sake, change your Creation engine.
I honestly don't understand the hype behind RAGE or it's sequel, but to each their own.
