Law and order do not exist in the world that Rage 2 takes place in. Instead, this game features a post-apocalyptic world that is nearly destroyed by a massive asteroid, causing a global extinction event. Eighty percent of Earth’s population was destroyed, but survivors have begun to rebuild, which has created a need for new factions and settlements. Players are the lucky few who are trying to survive in this dystopian landscape, roaming an open world to fight mutants, collecting tons of weapons, driving a variety of vehicles and using special abilities called “nanotrites” that make this first-person shooter packed with action.
