After a retailer listing from Walmart gave a posting of Rage 2 potentially being on the horizon, speculation has run rampant this week that the title may be among what Bethesda Softworks is planning to unveil this year at E3 2018, and it appears the studio is getting ahead of the game a bit and is preparing to announce a Rage follow-up very shortly.
Bethesda Softworks has released several new teaser images on its Twitter page over the past day, with the new images in question showing locations around the world highlighted in pink. After an initial teaser yesterday showing the Big Ben Tower in London, the second shows a rocket ship covered in pink with “5-14” etched on the side – which matches with the clock face from yesterday’s image that had a time of “5:14.”
Likewise, the third image highlights what looks like Sukiyabashi Crossing in Japan covered in pink highlights. Finally, the fourth (and probably most telling) image shows a line for Anarchy Tours, with a very Rage-looking character waiting in line impatiently.
While we don’t know for sure yet whether or not the game will actually be called Rage 2 (or that the announcement could possibly be something else entirely), it does seem pretty likely that the 2011 post-apocalyptic shooter will be getting a follow-up, and if the “5-14” marks from the images are any indication, it seems like we’ll get to see the game in action (and officially revealed) next week.
