Rambo: The Video Game is due to be released early in the year 2014 and the developers have released the first official gameplay trailer. As you might expect there are plenty of guns and explosions on screen and you also might recognise various scenes from the films First Blood, First Blood Part 2 and Rambo 3. The developers describe this game as “the ultimate & authentic Rambo experience,” with “full-on gore, carnage and destruction.”
The trailer starts with the entry of John Rambo, a drifter and troubled Vietnam war veteran who walks along the road leading to the small town of Hope, Washington. Then we see Rambo is beating up some police officers at the jail where he has been detained. He shoots up the police station and heads off into a forest. That’s First Blood. Then we see him engaged in jungle warfare on return to Vietnam to rescue American POWs, with his bow and arrow (among his other weapons) in First Blood Part 2. Finally we see Rambo driving various military vehicles in Afghan desert in line with the Rambo 3 tale.
Rambo is scheduled for release on 17th January 2014 in the UK. You can pre-order it now for £24.95 (PC version) with free shipping. Xbox 360 and PS3 versions cost £39.95. Pre-order customers can also get their hands on a limited edition figurine of a shirt off, assault weapon in hand, John Rambo from either GAME or Amazon.
Here is the gameplay trailer for Rambo: The Video Game:
