The game is set in a post-apocalyptic near future, following
the impact of the asteroid 99942 Apophis on Earth. The game has been described
as similar to the movie Mad Max 2 and to video games such as Fallout and
Borderlands.
In Rage's story, the asteroid 99942 Apophis impacts the
Earth on August 23, 2029, leaving few survivors. Human survivors have come
together to form settlements around oases and other practical or habitable
locations, including race tracks. These fragile homes are diligently defended
by the inhabitants against bandits and mutants, which are divided into various
gangs and organizations of their own.
Now I was looking at using the asteroid 99942 Apophis but it is to soon in date so I started to look into future possible asteroid hitting earth and found one called 1999 RQ36. The asteroid could hit earth in the year 2182 which is more around the time I want, but also has a chance to hit earth between now and 2200 giving me the choice of time in which hits earth.

The impact from the asteroid that created the famous Chicxulub crater in Mexico would have caused 'mega-tsunamis' many thousands of feet high.
It is believed that this asteroid led to the extinction of
the dinosaurs!
