id Software today announced that the novel RAGE is now available! Penned by Matthew Costello, the novel is based on the highly anticipated first-person shooter that is due for release on the 7th October for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

The asteroid Apophis has annihilated Earth, and only a small percentage of humanity’s best and brightest have been saved. Buried deep below the ground in life-sustaining Arks, these chosen few are tasked with one vital mission—to restore civilization to a devastated planet hundreds of years after the impact.

When Lieutenant Nick Raine emerges from his Ark, he finds a future indistinguishable from nightmare. Humankind has not been entirely destroyed on the surface world, and a primitive new society has emerged in which life is brutish and short. Mutants and bandits prey upon the weak, and a mysterious military group known as the Authority preys upon everyone. Worst of all, a would-be tyrant seeks to impose his will upon the shattered planet. Armed with nothing more than his combat training and survival instincts, Raine must rise to meet the challenges of the wasteland.

RAGE is due for release on the 7th October 2011 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. The Novel by Matthew Costello is available now.
