id Software hasn't shown much of its id Tech 5 powered Rage, the post-apocalyptic first-person shooter-slash-racer it announced almost two years ago. That's about to change, thanks to the newest issue of Game Informer.

Rage won't be out until 2010, according to id's Tim Hollenshead, meaning this summertime preview of the game will still mean a substantial wait. Game Informer promises "tons of exclusive dirt on the post-apocalyptic title, including plenty of gameplay details and loads of screens," so I hope the magazine got my change of address all sorted out.

The shooter is likely to be the last title id Software releases with EA Partners, now that it's owned by ZeniMax Media.
