Mad Max
Platform: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Release Date: September 4, 2015
Mad Max is a third-person action-adventure vehicular combat video game set in an open world environment and based on the Mad Max film series.

It was released on Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on 1 September 2015 in North America and United Kingdom, 2 September 2015 in Australia, 3 September 2015 in New Zealand and 4 September in Europe.
The game is set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, which features terrains like canyons, caves, and deserts. Inspirations for the game were taken from the Mad Max universe instead of the films. Players control Max Rockatansky as he progresses through the wasteland to seek his lost car, the Interceptor, and to build his ultimate car called the Magnum Opus. The game puts heavy emphasis on vehicular combat, in which around 60% of the game requires the player to drive their car to fight against enemies. Vehicular customization is also featured in the game.
