'Red Dead Redemption 2' rumored for a 2016 launch

4.8
A recent announcement from Take Two Interactive President Karl Slatoff is now giving fans more hope that "Red Dead Redemption 2" could finally be released next year.

To be clear, Slatoff made no specific announcement saying that "Red Dead Redemption 2" would be released next year, however, he did reveal that Rockstar Games is already working on their next batch of what he termed as "unannounced" projects.

According to Slatoff, the "unannounced" projects will most likely include new titles as well as games that continue established franchises. It's the latter part of that announcement that fans are pointing to as the indicator that "Red Dead Redemption 2" is finally on its way, according to Product Reviews.

It's also been confirmed that at least one of those still unnamed projects will be coming out by next year, although Take Two Interactive has held off announcing if that upcoming title will be an entirely new game or the continuation of a popular franchise such as "Red Dead Redemption."

Still, the news of Take Two Interactive finally confirming that a game will be coming out next year is significant, and now, supposed details of "Red Dead Redemption 2" have also begun to surface online.

One of the more widespread rumors surrounding the game suggests that it will feature three playable characters in Irish, Seth, and the player's own creation.

According to the Latinos Post, there's also a rumor suggesting that "Red Dead Redemption 2" may actually be a prequel set 12 years before the events of the first game.

As for where the next game in the series might be set, rumors also suggest that "Red Dead Redemption 2" will be spanning across nine different states, mostly taking place across western states and even Mexico.

I'm sure the graphic style is going to be as amazing as always. A lot of good games coming out lately.

More than likely the first one will always be the best.

That would be pretty cool in my opinion! I would give it a go!

Dan- It better be released for PC. Releasing the first one for consoles only was a shame so lets hope they don't make the same mistake twice.


I couldn't agree with you more. We need it for PC!

What a game Red Dead Redemption was. Hopefully a second one is released.

Oh snap, Yes it's about time they release number 2, the first one was so awesome I hope this one is as sick as that.

Really enjoyed the great atmosphere that RDR gave me back in the day, just to play poker on weekend with my friends or having gang wars. And since I'm going to take part in the glorious pc master race community soon, I would like to see a RDR 2 on the PC.

If it does come out, I dont think it will be as good as the OG.
