Rage 2

I read that if you use the gravity gun, the more darts you put into an enemy, the farther or faster they get flung to the direction you indicated.
 
I've not seen much of a variety of weapons, so I certainly hope there are more, but the weapons that have been shown all look pretty fun. Having alt fires for all of them is cool too...
 
Dang with the discount on bing points not being as deep I didn’t have enough for the full purchase price, but I went ahead and preordered. Doesn’t look like there is any other interesting games until fall.
 
60 frames per second on Xbox One X is confirmed, but I have a feeling HDR will get included also. Just Cause 4 does have HDR 6 months before Rage 2 releases. Same engine. I check the Xbox Enhanced list every couple days to see if Rage 2 gets updated with more information.

Newest information I can find. Not really new, but official confirmation that Xbox One X runs Rage 2 at 1080p, while at 60 frames per second. Sounds like no 4K, 30 frames per second option will exist. The base console resolution is not released yet.

I still expect HDR to happen.

They also mention Rise of the Ghosts to have a Summer 2019 release. The only real date I have seen is "prior to 12/31/2019" meaning it was in the year 2019.
Summer makes sense since it would be ideal to launch before end of year flood of games. I have always figured July or August for Rise of the Ghosts.

New Update: The information from retailers has changed. They now say: "Rise of the Ghosts Expansion: An exciting campaign expansion to RAGE 2! Will be available by Summer 2019! "

That launch time has just been updated recently.

The Art of Rage 2 launches in September. It went up for pre-order a few hours ago at Amazon and Bethesda Store. It is 192 pages.

The late release may mean it contains information on Rise of the Ghosts which will launch in Summer. This could cause it to avoid spoiling anything beforehand.
 
Won't bother with the book, but I'm definitely picking up the game in May, looking forward to it!
 
Man this game looks so fun. I'm picking up days gone end of April but I think I'm more looking forward to this honestly...

Here is everything else I did not post above:

Nice interview of Tim Willits:

Better preview by Gamereactor:

Hands on preview:

That should be all the new previews from PAX.

This just happened:
Amazon product
"Amazon Exclusive Rage 2 controller skin also included in box when you pre-order a physical copy of the Standard or Deluxe edition with Amazon."

So, the controller skin at Amazon is the second physical pre-order bonus after Gamestop added in a wingstick pre-order bonus.

This will be my first day 1 non VR game this year. Looks incredible.
