Final gameplay video for RAGE takes you into Jackal Canyon

Bethesda has released one final gameplay video for RAGE before it’s release, and it’s called: Jackal Canyon: Recover the Decrypter. In it, the Resistance has heard rumors of an Ark surfacing in Jackal Valley, and you are tasked with searching the site for a data decrypter, which is apparently very valuable. Finding it won’t be easy either as the Jackal Clan awaits those who dare to venture into their territory.

RAGE releases next week in on October 4 in the US and October 7 in Europe.

thanks for posting that Anaron.

not expecting this to be RPG at all, but it seems there's a lot of weapon tweaking involved, so that's role playing right there in a way. also, are we still having problems pre-loading this on Steam? haven't tried recently.

EDIT: still getting the server busy message when trying to pre-load. i hope they fix this, i wanna play Rage by the weekend!

Rage looks interesting, even though I haven't paid much attention to it. Unfortunately, looking interesting isn't enough to justify me purchasing games at the moment. This is the time of the year when everything I want releases, so I can't see myself being able to get Rage as well. It looks fun, but as was said above, I can see it being overshadowed by the major first-person shooters. I did notice a novel based on the game in my local supermarket though, so I might be able to pick that up instead. £3.97 for the book of the game is a lot less than £39.99 or so for the game. Perhaps it'll be on offer or something though, and I'll be able to pick it up cheap. We'll see. The art direction is very nice, though. I like it a lot.

i'm surprised this game isn't getting more love from everyone around here...

Well I would love to buy this game at release but funds are tight and I have to choose between this and BF3. In the long run I'll get way more game play out of BF3 so I have to go with that and Rage will eventually be ~$30. Sadly I think that's how most people will look at it and this games sales will not be what the game probably deserves because of that.

Yeah, I already plan on buying Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3. If I had the money, I'd also buy this game. It's such a shame that it's being released so close to two major FPS titles. :(

While I understand if people cannot do it for financial reasons, I do see this game being drastically different than MW3 and BF3 so it does not bother me they are being released so closely together. Really, really looking forward to checking it out tomorrow. All of a sudden extremely excited. It was truly a surprise when I launched Steam today to download the Gotham City Imposters Beta and saw I could preload it which led me to check the release date. I preordered it awhile back, so really had no clue. Cannot wait.

Ign gave it a 8.5/10. Not a bad review, does not seem like my type of game, though. Just a straight up shooter will not hold me, i need story, or a robust competitive multiplayer. I'll be passing on this game for a bit, till it drops in price a good chunk.

The first review ain't too hot. But other reviews are more solid.

I have a feeling it's going to be like Doom III: id fans will enjoy it.

Cant really trust any review where reviewer only played for a few hours. Reviews should be written after the completion of the game.

Erm, most reviewers get the final code well before the release date. It takes a couple of weeks to press the final version to discs. So it's more than "a few hours."

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
    • I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.
    • It is notable that around 70% of web browser users choose Google Chrome. However, it is puzzling why anyone on Windows would opt for Chrome when Microsoft Edge is often superior in many aspects and comes pre-installed. Edge collects less data, uses less RAM, and is more optimized for Windows as a native Microsoft product. While some may point to bloat in Edge, much of it can be removed with simple tools, requiring no more effort than installing Chrome. Meanwhile, Chrome reportedly downloads large amounts of AI data (4 GB) without explicit consent. I'm sure you Chrome users love that, or? Here is one example of a tool that doesn't even need to be installed to be able to use: https://github.com/TheBobPony/MSEdgeTweaker Although Microsoft’s aggressive promotion of Edge may be questionable, the browser’s current advantages make it a preferable choice over Chrome today, even if Chrome may have been better in the past.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
