Rage from id Software out September 2011 reveals QuakeCon

The long anticipated shooter from Doom creator id Software will be out September next year. Rage releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

The date was unveiled at QuakeCon on Friday, setting in stone a September 15th retail in Europe for the sci-fi action in 2011. Over a year away.

It's quite the wait as many expected it would be out this year but studio id want even more time with Rage and their fancy in-house id tech 5 engine, which is so not going to 3rd party groups by the way - because they want to keep the edge it affords them.

“Gamers all over the world can now officially begin the countdown to the launch of RAGE,” said Todd Hollenshead, id CEO. “At id, the development team continues their work to complete our newest franchise that will once again elevate the shooter genre.”

Earth has been savaged by an asteroid impact and humanity is looking to rebuild itself so naturally that means guns, cars and mutants. Looking forward to it, videogamer?

Sucks that it's so far away, but there's plenty of games to keep us all busy until then. Dragon Age 2 and The Old Republic for example! :)
