In the game, which features "soft" borders, players take on the role of Mad Max, who journeys across the Plains of Silence to recover his vehicle that has been stolen by a group of thugs.
Max will have access to a number of different weapons to defeat enemies, like the shotgun, thunderstick, and harpoon. However ammo is scarce in the harsh environment, and players may select melee options instead.
Food and water are rare in the unmapped wasteland, "The Big Nothing," where Max can venture to scavenge rare parts for his vehicle, the Magnum Opus. In the wasteland, Max has to survive sandstorms and subsist on a diet of maggots and rodents.
Players in the game can craft tool and weapons using a crafting system, and will have access to a garage to change or modify the Magnum Opus' body, wheels, chassis and engines.
The game will also introduce Chumbucket, Max's companion and a skilled mechanic who rides along with him and mans the harpoon gun on the Magnum Opus.
The four-and-a-half minute video publisher Avalanche Studios released yesterday features the game's parts scavenging, car customization, hand-to-hand combat, and the brutal melee and metal-squealing vehicular combats found in the in-game cinematics and actual gameplay.
The "Mad Max" game was initially unveiled during the Sony press conference at E3 2013, and will be launched for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 on September 4 this year.
