New Mad Max Screens Emerge From the Wasteland

Ten new images showcase scavenger foes and destructive vehicles.

48 Comments

A set of new images has emerged online showcasing Mad Max, the open-world action game set to release alongside the upcoming Fury Road movie.

The screenshots and concept art, shown further down the page, reveal more about some of the in-game vehicles and crazed foes that players will encounter.

Developed by Avalanche Studios, the team behind the Just Cause franchise, Mad Max was originally expected to ship in 2014 across both current and last-gen systems. However, the game was delayed to 2015, with the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions scrapped.

Keeping with the series' signature style, Mad Max is set in a post-apocalyptic world where wasteland scavengers are recurring obstacles. One of the key aspects of the game will be vehicular combat and car customisation.

Early gameplay impressions, noted by GameSpot back in 2013, suggested that it showed promise.

Looks like Avalanche mixed the best parts of RAGE together with Batman Arkham combat. I'm on board. This might be better than Just Cause 3.

As much as I hate to say, it looks pretty brown and generic so far. The character models look as uninspiring as the dreary, boring music.

The more i've been seeing of this game, the less interested I become.

I really hope i'm wrong. I want this to be good, but I can't shake this feeling that somethings went wrong in the studio, and the game has suffered for it.

I love the Mad Max franchise, but I get the feeling this game will suffer from low re-playability value/general repetitiveness.

So how tied in with this is the film, because Max looks more like Joel from TLOU than Tom Hardy/Bane

@brxricano: Heh, yeah that has been said many times especially in reference to the new movie. But at the same time until the new movie comes out we won't really know how scarce fuel is in it's new sorta rebooted world. In any case, as a big fan I just accept that it may not always make sense :).

The Mad Max character model looks about as expressive as Talion in Shadow of Mordor. I can overlook the doll heads as long as the orcs, err I mean … cars, have livery and earn barding and new horn taunts the more they kill.

If it's from the guys who make "Just Cause" it could be a sleeper hit in the making.

Game looks good. Idk why but it reminds me of a Game called rage back in 2011. Rage was amazing and im hoping they make a Rage 2.


And im happy they scrapped the Xbox 360 and PS3 version of his game. Now this game will look even better with possibly more gameplay and etc.

Yo Mr. Crossley, facts check. The game is releasing 4 months after the moving so I personally would not say that it's launching alongside the movie. Thx for the pics though. Still excited for this one.

We aren't adding destructive elements because we feel they don't fit in with ethos of the franchise(but we TOTALLY could if we wanted to).

@HippyTrippy: Rage was more colorful, this one is darker, I would say that this one looks like shadow of mordor.

The new film looks like a mix of Mad Max 2 and the game Rage.

This game I am unsure about, I want to like it but am slightly dubious at the moment.

If they've taken any inspiration from the movies please let it be the first (and best).

I wonder what was Konami thinking when they wanted to release MGS V alongside this game.
