Mad Max Stronghold Trailer Teases Friendships and Foes

Today we have a new trailer or Mad Max that puts more of a focus on the man himself. Highlighting the fact that he is a man running away from his own humanity it teases that the only way he can get it back is to form friendships  in the various outposts and strongholds that are located around the gaming world.

Did you notice the release date? September 1st? Oh boy, this is going up against Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Who do you think will win that one?

In the new trailer, Max visits some of the game’s diverse strongholds and encounters a number of intriguing characters, including Jeet, Gutgash, Pink Eye and Deep Friah. In a world where Max faces both his internal and external enemies, these strongholds hold the pieces essential to the puzzle he tries to solve. Max will need to make some uneasy alliances as he prepares to take on merciless Wasteland tyrant, Scrotus.

I find it interesting that the game, like the latest movie lets us know Max’s history based on what we saw in the previous films and doesn’t really go too deep into it. As this trailer teases, his past is full of pain and this is what Max is trying to hide from. Instead he lives a life of violence and survives day-to-day the best way he knows how, and that is fighting.

Will these “strongholds” bring with them interesting characters? Well the trailer shows off plenty of them, friends and foes. Whether these will add any meat to the games storyline is yet to be seen.

Featuring deep car customisation, metal-grinding vehicular action, brutal melee combat and a vast desert landscape waiting to be explored, players will be fully immersed into the deadly Mad Max universe like never before.

Mad Max will be released on 1st September, 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
