Publishing rights for Rage still not signed

There seems to be confusion with regards to publishing rights on id Software‘s upcoming Rage (PC, Mac OS X, PS3, Xbox 360). id Software’s mainstay publisher is Activision, and many have assumed that they (Activision) will be the ones to release the game, especially its console versions.

It turns out though that the publishing rights still haven’t been determined. Shacknews was able to get a hold of Tom Hollensend of id during the QuakeCon. He clarified that no deals have been signed yet between id and Activision. Now, despite this, a non-existent deal doesn’t directly and automatically mean that Activision won’t publish it. There still is the chance.

We’re just hoping that they settle things already so that, finally, we get to even more footage of the game as it goes through development.
