Tim Willits revealed that id Software and Avalanche Studios will support RAGE 2 beyond release. If you have an internet connection, you will be able to participate in online events in which you will receive useful items. This is practiced in Dying Light, which, even in its fifth year of existence, continues to delight fans with new content. In addition to events, the developers are preparing something else to keep gamers interested in RAGE 2. However, the shooter will not be a game-service in the usual sense.

The head of the studio specifically clarified that RAGE 2 is not a service game. Yes, it will receive continued support, but it is not designed for the constant release of major DLCs. β€œNo, it will just be a supported game. I don't know, it's so hard to explain... someone has to come up with a definition of what a β€³game-serviceβ€³ really is, said Tim Willits. A lot of people have different ideas about this, and I may have confused people when I started talking about it. What we plan to do is create updates and content for this game after launch. We will follow the game, follow the players, participate in the community, maintain and update the game. It's not like a subscription or shareware game. But she'll get support."
