Product Information

While influenced by the film franchise, Mad Max is not directly based on any one of the four movies. The game features an original story set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland with open world gameplay. As the story unfolds, Max loses his Interceptor car to marauders and is left for dead. To survive, players will need to work with a skilled mechanic called Chumbucket to build what he dubs the "Magnum Opus." Over the course of the game the Magnum Opus' chassis, engine, armor, and weapons can be upgraded. Equipment and guns can also be crafted for Max to use in melee combat and shootouts.

Most of the game's action takes place in vehicles, with gamers exploring several different regions, each containing unique landmarks and ruins, as well as events like races, time trials, and raids on enemy forts and convoys. There are bosses in each region as well, and as players complete activities they lower the threat level of each area. Gamers can also find parts for the Magnum Opus scattered throughout the wasteland, and a special unmapped area contains rare items for the vehicle, but the landscape is fraught with sandstorms and contains no food or water
