id Software and Avalanche Studios already set our imaginations on fire when RAGE 2’s first cheat code was revealed. “He’s on Fire” is very simple – it lends Tim Kitzrow’s legendary lines over your actions. If you’ve played NBA Jam, then worry not, because “Boomshakalaka!” is included as well. However, that’s not the only cheat code that players will have access to.
In a recent announcement post, Bethesda revealed several other codes that players could earn in-game. They are as follows, as described by Bethesda:
- Git Gud: Sweet, sweet instagib. With “Git Gud” every enemy goes down in one hit. It’s not fair to your enemies, but f*** ‘em.
- Son of Thor: Much like the power Olivia Newton John is supplying in the hit film “Grease,” this Cheat is electrifying. When the “Son of Thor” Cheat is activated, the player becomes electric, electrocuting any enemies that get too close.
- Klegg Support: The infamous (and douchey) Klegg Clayton is spawned as a friendly AI companion. We honestly don’t know if this is a reward or a punishment.
- Phoenix Rejector Seat: Now this is just getting ridiculous. As opposed to the Phoenix’s Ejector Seat, which does what it says on the tin and ejects the player from the vehicle, the Rejector Seat leaves the player on the ground and ejects the Phoenix into the air. Like we said, ridiculous.
More cheats will be added into the game on a rotating basis, and you can look forward to brand new ones after launch. It’s an intriguing post-launch plan for sure, one that should give players enough reason to return to the wasteland. The real question now is what other cheat codes the development teams could possibly have in mind.
RAGE 2 is out on May 14th for Xbox One, PS4, and PC. It will be launching for Steam as well as the Bethesda Launcher. Head here to check out some recent gameplay of the underground environments, along with how the Overdrive bar works.
