Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Avalanche Studios released a new trailer for the Mad Max video game debuting this fall.

They released the Stronghold trailer at the Gamescom show in Germany, offering a glimpse into the various fortified outposts located throughout the open world of the post-apocalyptic Wasteland.

In the new trailer, Max visits some of the game’s diverse strongholds and encounters a number of intriguing characters, including Jeet, Gutgash, Pink Eye, and Deep Friah.

Warner said that Max faces both his internal and external enemies, and these strongholds hold the pieces essential to the puzzle he tries to solve. Max will need to make some uneasy alliances as he prepares to take on merciless Wasteland tyrant Scrotus.

Mad Max will be released on September 1, 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC. Here are our impressions of the game.
