Gamescom 2018: Uncut RAGE 2 Gameplay Shoots to Kill

Bang bang

by Robert Ramsey Tue 21st Aug 2018

IGN's nabbed 9 minutes of RAGE 2 gameplay at Gamescom 2018, and the whole thing's totally uncut. It's got hefty looking gunplay, a glimpse at some special abilities, and wingsticks. You know, that boomerang-style weapon from the first game.

How do you think RAGE 2 is shaping up? Aim for the head in the comments section below.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) is an assistant editor of Push Square, and has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Persona, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Trails, Tales — he's played 'em all. A little too much, some might say.

reminds me a lot of the Advanced Movement Cod games in terms of the game-play - obviously a different setting and structure but there is a lot of similarity with the actual mechanics. I find it very difficult to watch 'PC' games because of the very twitchy view - jumping so quick from left to right is 'painful' to watch - maybe great to play but horrible to watch.

Okay the enemy voice acting sounds painful, but that's what I'd expect from the people who made Just Cause 2. Gameplay looks decently fun though.

Looks decent but compared to the fluidity and pace of doom eternal I think this falls a little short.

Geez...I always thought it'd be nice to see a gameplay preview with a mouse and keyboard instead of a controller, but whoever this is...they need to lower their mouse sensitivity and stop jerking all over the place and be more deliberate about how they look around.

Otherwise...CAN I GET A RELEASE DATE?!
