Five Years Later, Where Is Red Dead Redemption 2?

AOTF Writes: "Rockstar Studios may be best well known for their record breaking Grand Theft Auto series, but five years ago saw the publisher/developer bring us one of the best games of the last generation of games with Red Dead Redemption. Serving as a spiritual successor to Red Dead Revolver, Red Dead Redemption was almost like an entirely new franchise. The game won many awards and sold exceptionally well, which begs the question, where is Red Dead Redemption 2?"

Good things come to those who wait

[Fil101]

Hope

[hells_supernova]

They do indeed but I would take a remaster at this rate or a pc release

[curtis92]

Said all the PC gamers waiting for RDR.

[Perjoss]

Owning a PC doesn't magically block you from buying a PS3 or 360 ;)

[KingPin]

@nick
tell that to everyone that bought duke nukem forever :P

[DivoJones]

Or Aliens: Colonial marines.. that game had a long dev cycle as well.

[Dasteru]

*Red Dead 3. Unless you want to play as Johns son.

[bmf7364]

These damned news authors seem to fail to realize that Red Dead existed before Redemption.

[Nwah]

It's a sad world where "journalists" can't even do 10 seconds of research before publishing an article.

[ziggurcat]

well... the first one was technically called red dead revolver... so red dead redemption 2 would be correct.

"Serving as a spiritual successor to Red Dead Revolver, Red Dead Redemption was almost like an entirely new franchise. The game won many awards and sold exceptionally well, which begs the question, where is Red Dead Redemption 2?""

More like, you failed to read the article. -.-

@deafdani

Too bad there isn't "burn" bubble because you burned him good ;)

[Rookie_Monster]

Greatness takes time. Rockstar never fails. Take your Time Rockstar and please make a PC version as well.

[Kal853]

I would really love to see a Bully 2.

[EvilWay]

Let's be real here. Why would they make Red Dead Redemption 2? They Jack finished off his dad's quest so there isn't much to go on IMO. I would love to see another Red Dead of course but not I don't want to play as Jack because k hated his character and I don't see where they could go with it

[hells_supernova]

You know just because it has 2 in the title doesn't mean it will have the same characters case in point grand theft auto

[NicSage]

I'd like to see RdR on PC or a remaster.

[MoeStedley]

Loved Red Dead Nightmare DLC and have been praying for a GTA V Nightmare DLC since release. I know people feel zombies are played out but Nightmare was amazing and would I feel it would rock in the GTA V universe.

[Nwah]

I would say it's safe to say we'll see either this, a Bully sequel or possibly even Agent as Rockstar's next game, probably after some GTA V DLC.

[Number-Nine]

I think RDR is the best R* game.

[WizzroSupreme]

It's in the abyss with The Last Guardian and Half-Life 3.

[funeralflames]

I think it's better this way. It gives Rockstar a chance to breathe and us, the consumers a chance as well.

Anyways, I'm more than content just for being able to play that masterpiece.

[TimmyTesticles]

RDR was the best thing that's ever happened to me. I have 2 children.

[guyman]

Best comment i've read all week. Thumbs up hahah!

[Perjoss]

A man who clearly has his priorities in order.

[destroyer11687]

Lol

[Summons75]

Hopefully Red Dead Something. Redemption was awesome, way better than GTA4 and still better than GTAV. If only they would make a new Red Dead with the engine that GTAV is on, it would be mind blowing.

[Scholla]

Me and my ppl was just talking about this, we're big fans of RDR once it's announced I'm all over it!

And like someone said earlier it doesn't have to necessarily be RDR2 but another Red Dead -- in that world.

[TeamLeaptrade]

I can't wait for them to make a RDR2. I really think this is what Rockstar has to do next. At least I hope so. I would purchase RDR2 if it were to be made. I would even purchase a remastered edition, because it's been five years since RDR came out anyways.

[KingPin]

where is RDR2, well its in stores near you. gaming section. between Half life 3 and silent hills.

[Yetter]

um its Take Two so they are working on it but they are gonna take their time

[Zenith4k]

I could be totally wrong here and I'll except the feedback but I perdict that they will wait till there have been more next gen consoles sold as to get a bigger profit ( though I'd say more would buy next gen if it's anoused it (I'm also presuming it will be next gen only)). So I'd say we have another year or two to make it a truly epic masterpiece.

[vakarian75]

I figure if they make another it wont be Redemption 2 it'd be Red Dead(subtitle). It's the Red Dead franchise not Red Dead Redemption franchise.

[Lighter9]

PC will probably never see RDR because of someone hacking the lasso into MP. Could you imagine the chaos of some arseholes hogtying everyone?

[kraenk12]

How about "wait until E3 until you write such a piece?!"

[ReelBigMike]

Hopefully they're making Bully 2 first.

[L0wlifeGamer]

One of the best games of all time. A true Masterpiece!

[Moldiver]

I hope we get bully first. Its time for a new bully. a new red dead game can come after that.

[jdaboss]

^said literally no one ever.

[coreyweb]

This game has been coming up quite a bit. I had never really heard much about it......especially not about it being so apparently good.

I hadn't even really heard of it till now.

[ThatArtGuy]

What rock have you been hiding under?

[iliimaster]

i thought they would push the hell out of this game man im tired of waiting for it hopefully e3 sheds some light on this franchise

[MilkMan]

Rockstar takes time making games. This might actually be in the cooker as we type/speak. To be honest its hard to tell what these are doing. For the most part there stuff has been quality, so let just wait and see. Oh, and f**k season passes from them.

[e3kehoe]

I would be extremely surprised if rockstar wasn't already working on a new red dead!!

[porkChop]

It's made by the same studio that makes Midnight Club. Considering that Rockstar keeps their titles in rotation, it's only logical to think that they're working on a new Midnight Club title first.

[The7Reaper]

Dear game journalist Red Dead Redemption is already a sequel it would be more accurate too call it Red Dead 3

[Kuma]

Yeah ,,I would do the immediate pre order also

[Bass_fisherman]

i wouldnt mind a remaster with a few new things added
