id: Rage Could Get Digital Distribution
Digital distribution is all the rage these days, and id Software doesn’t want to be left out of it, too. Company creative director Tim Willits has gone on record to say that Rage just might head to online distribution platforms, despite the game’s large reported size.
"We have not written off digital distribution for Rage," he said. "We haven’t figured out what we want to do yet. But I do want to fix the fact that John [Carmack] said [digital distribution is] not going to happen. What I’m saying is that’s not true."
He explained that the confusion stemmed from the game’s final form on disc.
"John Carmack made a comment about the media size, which unfortunately wasn’t exactly correct because we haven’t crossed that bridge yet. He said it was going to be too large to download, and I was thinking to myself, ‘You know, uhhhhh, people can do lots of things.’"
The game is due out next year on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
