Mad Max: Fury Road is currently lighting up the box office, but the video game still has a ways to go before release. Mad Max is set to come out on September 1st for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. We got a small taste of the insane action that WB Games is prepping for fans of the storied franchise with the first few trailers. Today we are getting a much deeper look at the story, which sees Max facing off against various forces in the wasteland. Check out the official Mad Max ‘Savage Road’ story trailer below for all the details.
To be honest, I didn’t fully appreciate the excitement for this game until I saw the film a week ago. The two hours of insanity that I witnessed has me truly pumped for this release. Seeing this trailer only cements that feeling, as it seems to tie in fantastically with George Miller’s action masterpiece.
It’s tough to tell where and when this fits into the overall Mad Max narrative, but that seems to be par for the course as far as the series goes. Max is seemingly trying to get back his car from a group of raiders, which hints that this takes place before Mad Max: Fury Road which is in theaters now. However, WB Games has made it clear that this will be a standalone experience, so maybe exactly when it happens in relation to the film doesn’t matter.
Mad Max will be available on September 1st for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
