id Software hasn’t “forgotten about” RAGE, says Willits
Tim Willits, studio director at id Software, has said the firm hasn’t forgotten about RAGE. Speaking with GameReactor at E3, Willits said: “We have a few things that we may announce soon, but I’m not sure. We haven’t forgotten about the title, and as soon as we have more news, we will definitely announce it.” As far as whether DOOM 4 is ready to be revealed, Willits would not be drawn in, only stating that if it were, the release of DOOM 3: BFG would be a “great time,” to do it. So, in other words, not yet. DOOM 4 was announced as being in production in May 2008.

“It was definitely a conscious decision for id to move away from that dark corridor setting. We didn’t want to follow the same formula. When you’re inside RAGE’s missions, they’re very classic id. But the technology allowed us to really move out of that and let our artists be artists.” – Tim Willits, creative director of RAGE to MCV.
