Official Mad Max Gameplay Overview Trailer

Published

mad-max-gameplay-trailer

I don’t easily get excited over games, especially the ones that are based on movies. There is an unwritten rule that a game made after a movie is usually bad. But I really hope that Mad Max is the exception of that rule. With the new movie Mad Max – Fury Road only two weeks away (in theaters May 15) we were teased with a 4 minutes and a half  overview video for the upcoming Mad Max game, created by Avalanche Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.

Mad Max is set an post-apocalyptic world where resources are scarce and water is a luxury. All that remains of the human civilization we know today are bands of bandits fighting with each other for gas and resources. Described as a post-apocalyptic, open world action-adventure game with a vehicular combat element, the game will put you in the shoes of Max Rockatansky a survivor who finds himself stripped of everything he had and has to start from scrap. The first thing you must take in consideration is to get yourself a ride – if you don’t have a way to move fast, you are as good as dead. There are allot of options and the cars can be customized in countless ways. You can take a look at the garage on the official website of the game.

The combat system looks very similar to the one from Shadow of Mordor, something that could work for the game if done properly, or against it if they won’t find a way to make it fluid. There are more similarities with Shadow of Mordor as  the wasteland is said to be  divided into regions. Some of those regions are haunted by sandstorms and dangers, but having the courage to confront them can give you unique items and parts for your ride.

I’m not saying this will be good but it sure has the  potential to be one of the best games of 2015 if done right. The gameplay sequences look promising, the environment seems carefully crafted as well as immersive. The only thing that can ruin it would be the story.

Before getting mad out of excitement, remember that Mad Max – The Game will only be available starting September 4th, 2015 on PC, Xbox and PS4, but it can be already pre-ordered from the game’s website. I can’t wait to get my hands on this one.

New PS5 Patch Introduces Rare 40FPS Mode for Avatar Game

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has received an exciting update that introduces a new graphical mode, elevating the game’s visual experience. With a smooth frame rate of 40 frames per second and enhanced resolutions, players can now immerse themselves in even more stunning and detailed environments. Now downloadable on PS5 with the latest patch 3.2, this mode is compatible with 4K TVs that can handle up to 120 Hz. Before this update, Avatar PS5 only offered quality and performance modes. However, with this new option, players can now enjoy the benefits of both modes after downloading the 2.4GB update.

Throughout the PS5 era, 40fps modes have been a rarity, much to the disappointment of the hardcore community. Insomniac Games first introduced them in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and later added the feature to Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. They also included it in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Other PS5 titles, such as Hogwarts Legacy, Lies of P, and God of War Ragnarok, also offer 40fps modes.

In addition to that, Patch 3.2 for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora brings along the following:

Worldwide:

  • Research Station Alpha now features a convenient Fast Travel option
  • The issue of controller re-mapping and resetting on game restart has been resolved
  • Addressed multiple instances of crashes
  • I corrected a few spelling errors
  • Addressed the issue of voice lines overlapping during dialogue

Primary Objectives & Optional Objectives:

  • [Main Quest: Shadows of the Past] This main quest is an intriguing journey into the depths of history. Addressed a bug that previously hindered quest progression in co-op mode

More bug fixes have been implemented.

  • [Available on all platforms] The rescued human characters no longer return to the Resistance HQ wearing masks
  • Available on all platforms. There is a noticeable improvement in the visibility of NPCs when they are at the edge of the Player’s vision

Fear not; for those worried about potential censorship issues with the PS5-exclusive Stellar Blade, set to release on April 26th, Sony has got you covered. ShiftUp, the developer, proudly assures players that the game will maintain its uncensored content across all regions, including Japan.

We have to admit, we didn’t anticipate this as a potential issue or a potential selling point. The main character, Eve, and her revealing costumes have been heavily showcased in the game’s pre-release marketing. Nevertheless, it is pleasing to witness ShiftUp’s evident enthusiasm as their vision prepares to reach the hands of a vast number of players.

Regarding Stellar Blade, Yoko Taro believes it surpasses NieR: Automata, and we were pleased to learn that the game will be considerate of your PS5 storage capacity. The demo is now available for you to try, and it has nearly doubled the daily active users of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. This is quite impressive, especially considering it is the game’s first console showing.

Will you be there to experience Stellar Blade on its release day? It’s certainly a relief to witness the game remaining uncensored until the last moment. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.
