Bethesda To Publish RAGE

Since it was first announced back at Quakecon 2007, id Software’s RAGE has been somewhat of a talking point. It’s massive size (nearly 1TB uncompressed according to John Carmack) means that it’ll ship on 3 DVD’s on Xbox 360, whilst us PS3 owners will be able to play without all that disc switching nonsense.

Anyway, that’s besides the point. Today Zenimax Media announced that they would be publishing the game under the Bethesda Softworks brand and not EA. This comes as quite a surprise, but I can’t see Bethesda slacking on this one. The company have stepped up their publishing game since late last year with the release of WET and, the terrible, Rogue Warrior. Hopefully RAGE will be a step in the right direction for the, Fallout 3 developer’s, publishing future.

There’s not currently a confirmed release time frame for the game yet.
