PC, Rage – What Rendering API Does Rage Use on PC?

pcrage

Is Rage for PC using OpenGL or DirectX? From all the Radeon card troubles, I would presume the former, but I would like to be sure.

If you have the game, you can tell which one it is by by opening the exe with the Dependency Walker and checking whether it links to opengl32.dll or d3dx.dll. Also, Process Explorer can determine the loaded DLLs for a running game.
