Red Dead Redemption 2 has a new trailer out for it, which tells the story of outlaw Arthur Morgan and the Van Der Linde gang as they rob, fight and steal their way across the vast and rugged heart of America in order to survive.
Developed by Rockstar Games, the creators of Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America’s unforgiving heartland. The game’s vast and atmospheric world will also provide the foundation for a brand new online multiplayer experience.
Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games: “With Red Dead Redemption 2, the team is working hard to push forward our vision for interactive entertainment in a truly living world. We hope to deliver players an epic experience that builds upon everything we’ve learned making games.”
Personally, I never got to play the original RDR at the time, and then once I’d moved on from Xbox 360 and PS3 to the next-gen consoles, I tried to find it on Steam (as I have a fast PC) but it’s not there. However, I had a brief go of it on Playstation Now (since Sony still haven’t sorted out backwards compatibility for games, even though they manage it in a way that’ll charge you for the privilige.
Originally due in Autumn 2017, Red Dead Redemption 2 has been put back to Spring 2018, but is available to pre-order on PS4 and Xbox One.
