Rage 2 update adds New Game +,Ultra Nightmare Difficulty

4.8
A new update is available for Rage 2 and it adds a new mode and difficulty level along with New Game +.

Alongside the additional ways to play Rage 2, Update 2 includes Twitch Bounties, new Wasteland Wizard cheats, the BJ Blazkowicz Voice Pack, and more.

You can also expect the usual quality of life improvements and bug squashing.

Come September, more content will be added to the game. This includes the Rise of Ghosts expansion which adds new story missions, a new location, enemy faction, weapon and ability.

In November, the second expansion will be released. It also includes a new story, missions, enemies, and additional areas to explore.

Full notes for Update 2 are below.



Rage 2 – Update 2

New Game +

  • Now, when you finish the Project Dagger storyline and complete all of the Arks, you’ll be able to load up New Game +. This will carry over all your weapons, abilities, upgrades, and vehicles, and there will be a little surprise waiting for you when you revisit the Arks in your new playthrough. (Spoiler alert: It’s awesome skins for your weapons.) In addition, you’ll gain prestige badges when you play through the game multiple times, and the difficulty will increase with each additional playthrough.

Ironman Mode

  • Everyone knows Ironman Mode. You die, you lose. Sound tough? Nah. You got this. We believe in you! (Don’t worry, using your Defibrillator doesn’t count as dying.)

Ultra Nightmare Difficulty

  • When we talked to one of RAGE 2’s producers about Ultra Nightmare difficulty, he just said it was “crazy hard” and stared off into the distance with a haunted look in his eyes. It’s probably fine, though.

Twitch Bounties

  • If you stream RAGE 2 on Twitch, you might end up seeing some familiar names popping up on bounty boards throughout the game. Viewers of your stream will be included in the pool of wanted criminals for you to hunt down.

New Wasteland Wizard Cheats

  • Dash Ragdoll: Become even more of a living weapon with the Dash Ragdoll Cheat. When you hit Dash you’ll lose all control of your limbs, literally transforming you into a ragdoll as your hurtle toward unsuspecting (and rightfully confused) enemies, instantly killing anyone in your path.
  • Super Knockback: You know in anime when the hero punches someone and they fly off into the stratosphere? That could be you with the Super Knockback Cheat. All your melee strikes are amplified to the nth degree so just wind up and watch your enemies fly.

BJ Blazkowicz Voice Pack

  • Bring a little Wolfenstein to your RAGE 2 playthrough with the BJ Blazkowicz Voice Pack.

QoL Improvements

  • Pop-up notifications no longer pause the game
  • Camera Deadzone slider adjustment added to controller options
  • Flashlight added for navigating dark areas (hold Focus to activate)
  • You can now skip Aunt Prowley’s dialog in the opening mission
  • Added an option to disable Ark tutorials
  • Tracking projects now shows progress on HUD
  • New options to turn off Damage and Kill notifications on crosshair
  • “You Call That a Wingstick?” and TV Fatal voice packs auto-granted after Bethesda.net account link (previously required buying from Wasteland Wizard)

Bug Fixes

  • ChazCar vehicle no longer misaligns Walker through the chassis when at an angle
  • Fixed an issue where you could not fast travel to Kvasir’s lab when there was an objective marker on the location
  • Fixed an issue where combat music did not play correctly when playing through “The Ranger” mission
  • Fixed an issue where the Prowley hologram subtitles did not match VO dialog in Japanese
  • Fixed an issue where you could get stuck attempting to access Authority HQ prior to Project Dagger
  • Fixed an issue where bullet decals and blood stopped appearing in the game world after long fights
  • Fixed an issue where the game may freeze while navigating the Phoenix weapon upgrades menu
  • Player is no longer able to drive vehicles into the Ruined Shaft crusher nest
  • Shop vendor VO no longer overlaps with itself
  • Opening storage containers now correctly plays sound effects
  • Breaking wooden barricades no longer leaves floating spikes behind
  • Added two log entries for Bridge of Ned
  • Mutie explosion sound effects no longer play when the player turns off all sounds
