Game Details:
Wasteland 2 is a post-apocalyptic RPG being developed by inXile Entertainment and Obsidian Entertainment for Windows PC, Mac OS X and Linux. The game is the first official sequel to the 1988 game Wasteland. It was crowd funded through kickstarter.
Plot:
The game is set in an alternate history timeline, in which a nuclear holocaust took place in 1998 in relation to an impact event involving a cluster of meteors that sparked a global nuclear war. On the day of the cataclysm, a company of U.S. Army Engineers were in the desolate southwestern desert constructing bridges in an area with a number of small survivalist communities and a newly-constructed federal death row prison with light industrial facilities.
The soldiers sought shelter in the prison, expelled the inmates and invited nearby survivalists to join them shortly thereafter. Years later, together they formed "the Desert Rangers, in the great tradition of the Texas and Arizona Rangers", to help other survivors in the desert and beyond it.
