Rage 2 is getting one of the most surprising pre-order bonuses I've ever heard of: commentary by NBA Jam's Tim Kitzrow!

If that name doesn't ring a bell, then don't worry, as it's a generation thing. NBA Jam came out back in the early 90s, and apart from being a lot of fun, is probably best remembered for Kitzrow's commentary. He uttered classics such as 'He's on fire,' and the unmistakable 'Boomshakalaka!'

If you were a kid in the 90s, then this should hopefully bring back a few memories. 

Anyway, Kitzrow's antics are now being implemented into Rage 2, for some reason or another. Pre-ordering the game will net you the He's on Fire cheat code, adding a bunch of Kitzrow's lines from NBA Jam into the mix, plus some Rage 2-themed dialogue for good measure.

Rage 2 is due out in May for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One, although right now it's not looking likely the game will come to Switch.
