Rumor Alert: Red Dead Redemption 2 To Be Unveiled At E3, Will Be Multiplatform, New Leaked Details

Rumor alert everyone. Reddit’s member ‘AnonDN1978‘ – who claims to be a former Rockstar dev – has leaked new information about the rumoured sequel to Red Dead Redemption.

[Relientk77]

Red Dead Redemption was amazing, can't wait to see the reveal for the 2nd

[rodiabloalmeida]

Until you go to Mexico. It made me drop the game all together.

[Randostar]

What?
I loved that part of the game.

[TheBigShamona]

that's actually where i stopped playing as well, ive always wanted to finish it tho. it is uncanny almost

[thekhurg]

Really? Different strokes for different folks - I thought it was pretty amazing. I don't like western shows/movies, but this game was incredibly fun.

The music when 1st going to Mexico was odd, but afterwards it was pretty solid fun.

[freshslicepizza]

will they remaster the first one or at the very least make it for the pc?

[Bdub2000]

UNVEILED: this game might be unveiled soon!!!

[Testfire]

@moldy, I sure hope so. Such an amazing game I'd buy it again for sure. The co-op was surprisingly unique and fun as well.

[LAWSON72]

RDR clearly has quite the following, 58 disagrees. I personally thought the whole game was one great adventure.

[kraenk12]

What?! You must be a strange fella. You missed the best parts of the game.

[WeAreLegion]

*3rd

[Deadlead]

Revolver and Redemption are really completely different games. But Redemption 2 would be a pretty lame title.

[Old_Prodigy]

@Deadlead Whether they were completely different or not doesn't change the fact that they are related. Just because people would rather dismiss Red Dead: Revolver as no relation to Red Dead Redemption doesn't mean it's any less a part of the Red Dead Series. Sure Red Dead: Redemption 2 is possible, but I think everything with John Marston has already been explored. Not to mention I really would prefer not to see Jack as the main character for it. They should just start from scratch with an all new character/story. There are so many possible titles, I really hope they don't add numbers to the titles unless a direct sequel is really necessary.

[_-EDMIX-_]

I got to agree. Regardless of first game, the Red Dead series has 2 entries and it would make no sense to just split it and make redemption some sub series and title it 2 or something..

I think it makes more sense to call it Red Dead subtitle 3.

As its the 3rd game in the series.

[Deadlead]

@Old_Prodigy and Remix Sorry for the confusion, it's that damn English language getting in the way. I wasn't trying to dismiss Revolver as part of the Red Dead series, you can't. I was speaking towards game design aka open world vs action adventure. Meaning the next RDR will be produced in the same vein as Redemption was regardless of where R* takes the franchise in plot, character progression, setting, etc...

[Spartacus10]

No, he (Relientk77) specifically mentioned RDR and theres only 1 red dead redemption, so another RDR game would be the second.

If we were talking about the next black ops, you wouldnt correct someone if they called it the third COD black ops game.

[WeAreLegion]

Jesus Christ, guys. I was just joking. It really doesn't matter if we call it the 2nd or 3rd.

[ZombieKiller]

Let's hope that it tops the last game in the series because damn.

RDR is one of my favorite games of all time. Glad I gave it a chance once I saw it.

Red Dead Revenge, Retaliation, and any other "R" word that fits...not Red Dead Redemption 2...ugh.

As long as it isn't Red Dead Revengeance. ;)

[Tapani]

lol at the last one!

[Old_Prodigy]

I've got plenty of words beginning with R that would suit the Red Dead Series: Restitution, Remission, Repentance, Rebellion, Reckoning. I could go on but this list is pretty long http://www.wordfind.com/sta...

[TheCommentator]

Red Dead Restauranteur? Makin' burritos, old west style!

[kraenk12]

I always thought it will be Red Dead Revolution!

[reallyNow]

Red Dead Revival

[3-4-5]

RDR was an awesome game and honestly, probably the highest quality game Rockstar ever made.

It has many many things done right that they still haven't gotten right in the GTA series.

* I think people are ready for a new RDR game and if it is unveiled at E3 it will be awesome for everyone.

[Xof]

Completely agree. Even ignoring all of the "content," the map and open world were much better designed than anything they'd done before or since.

I just hope that the sequel hits PC, too.

[JackBNimble]

As much as I love RDR I really don't want Seth or Irish as playable characters in the main story. I thought Seth and Irish were irritating characters in RDR's story line to begin with . If I have to play either one of these characters in RDR2 then I just might have to pass on this and I don't want to do that.

RDR was a day1 buy for me , "so please Almighty Gamer God, don't let RockStar put in these shitty characters".

[Testfire]

Imagine if a new RDR and a new Fallout game are announced this E3!

[Palitera]

You'll probably have to wait a lot longer.

Seriously, "AnonDN1978"?

How easy is it to fool you guys?

Let me try: On the latest Elvis Presley birthday party, secretly celebrated at PAX North 2015 (yeah, you didn't know about it because you're not insiders), the cousin of my brother's neighbor, who is an Illuminati agent in disguise at Rockstar, discovered it all: Rockstar bought Half Life. They will release their next game in 2015, September 31.

Yes, they will add a day in the calendar as well.

I'm so insider.

[mafiahajeri]

Sounds like horseshit...

[BC_Master_Haze]

But is it next gen horse s***?

[oasdada]

Stoked! But i dont think it will be called redemption 2

[showtimefolks]

i loved RDR and its one of my most favorite games of all time. But i am not to exited about a pre quel, but i will still give benefit of the doubt to R*. Also why not let us play as John from original game

i would love to see RDR come to next gen before a new one comes out

I would love to see Bully 2 and if possibly original Bully on ps4/xbox one

[_-EDMIX-_]

I have zero clue what they mean. If anything...it would be Red Dead 3 subtitle etc.

Redemption isn't a new series, its a sequel to the first Red Dead.

[lelo2play]

I wonder what happened to Rockstar's Agent?

[Spartacus10]

Literally no info on that for years... even the last guardian is in a better situation than Agent and that really says something.

I'm guessing the PS3 exclusivity never worked out for some reason and it got turned into LA Noire.

[XanderZane]

There's no doubt there's a sequel in the works. I thought Rockstar had already hinted on that a month or so back. Hopefully some of these rumors are true, but we probably won't know anything until the E3 or GamesCom. I'm looking forward to some official information.

[Xman2K]

I hope the main character is more of an Eastwood type than Morsten. Got up to the house shooting crows and stopped, otherwise it was a good game, just missing something, graphics were great

[TrollsBringer]

But what about the remastered edition of the first one which is inevitable?

[CaptainPunch]

I hope we get that Red Dead Remaster everyone wants and a new Red Dead title, that would be my dream come true!

[Plagasx]

RDR on PC....... *Drools*

[CaptainPunch]

With mods...

[GenuineGamer]

Delorean back to the future mod in RDR would be fun

[-Foxtrot]

Redemption 2? Really?

Red Dead 3

or

Red Dead <Insert Subtitle which begins with the letter R here>

Plus a Prequel AND the same place as the last game. I know what happens to Seth, I don't want to see it because I already know what's going to happen. Seth won't die, Irish won't because they are in Red Dead Redemption.

Yeah I want a new Red Dead game as much as the next guy but hopefully this isn't true. Why would you name it Red Dead Redemption 2 when it's a prequel.

I'd rather have it set somewhere new with a new main character. I don't want to see more then one. I didn't really like it in GTAV when it came to buying property and items etc I'd rather see the focus on the one character. I came out of GTAV wishing the story had focused on just Trevor

Would John Marstons emotional story really had that impact if there was more then one main character and you could switch? Yeah I don't think so.

[Rimeskeem]

I heard it would be called Red Dead Revenge

[Randostar]

99% of the rumors for R* games end up being completely fake.

[Elit3Nick]

There's been no solid rumours about a name but assuming that the series follows the RDR acronym (Red Dead Revolver/Red Dead Redemption) Revenge seems like a possible name

[Rimeskeem]

@Randostar

I know, just keeping my dreams alive

[wakeNbake]

They should call it Red Dead Revolution and have it set in California during the gold rush.

[JWiLL552]

I like that concept.

Revolution is better than "Revenge" too.

[VJGenova]

Agree solid idea. Revolution is close to revolver though so who knows? How about some stupid names!?

1. Red Dead Rockstar
2. Red Dead Rancher
3. Red Dead Rodeo
4. Red Dead Risk
5. Red Dead Rising
6. Red Dead Remastered
7. Red Dead Reaper
8. Red Dead Respite
9. Red Dead Refined
10. Red Dead Refugee

I think Red Dead Rancher is my favorite ...

[KnownAsEpic]

Or Red Dead Rebellion

[sizeofyou]

Red Dead Dead Red...

[oasdada]

Green dead salad

[showtimefolks]

-Foxtrot

man i couldn't agree with you more. I came out of GTA5 experience thinking WTH? and the story was all over the place than it ends

R* please just focus on one character and deliver the goods

[-Foxtrot]

I even felt like in the end it was all rushed

<Spoilers Incase>

Like all of a sudden they need to wrap loose threads up and they take on each others "enemy". I mean you can kill them in a flash since you have most of the weapons unlocked.

You would think each characters "enemy" would have a mission dedicated to them where they face them one on one....but no....rocket launcher out, pull trigger and they're dead.

[MasterCornholio]

Read Dead Rapist?

Nah it can't be.

[reallyNow]

Trevor? Really? Michael. The story would have been great focusing on Michael.

[Spurg]

Rockstar revealing a game at E3???

[iamnsuperman]

Which is why I think we can safely say this won't happen. Rockstar doesn't nor needs to until games at E3. They are likely to have a closed door demo if they have already announced something but that is it

[Deadlead]

I BELIEVE!

[MultiConsoleGamer]

I really want this rumor to be true. RDR was one of my favorite games for the last gen.

[robtion]

Me too. A fantastic game that was way ahead of its time. Still holds up well today.

RDR2 would be awesome but imagine if Rockstar announced Agent as a ps4 exclusive. That would be insane, N4G would melt down. Not likely to happen though.

[Jalva]

I like how everyone assumes it has to be Red Dead (something beginning with R), just shows how closed-minded people are (Xbox 720 anyone?) just because two games in a row happened to go that way doesn't mean another game will, plus it would be really confusing then when people used the initials to talk about any game in the franchise.

[Syntax-Error]

Hey genius! the fact that they have done it 2 times before is an indication. MS has never used chronicled letters or numbers like Sony to define their next project. Even with windows, they used vista, office, CE, ect

[WESKER2015]

was there any doubt that it would not be multiplatform?, hope its true, i never actually played red dead redemption last gen

[nucky64]

well, RDR never made it to pc - so, hopefully for pc gamers, they'll get to play the next game.

[Kayant]

Loool reddit rumor...

"My boss was a major D*** so this is why I am leaking info on the up coming Red Dead Redemption prequel."

Yh sure.

[04STIBluByU]

I never played the first one. Do you think they would remaster it? I watched the ending on youtube many times. How does it play?

[PsBoxGamer]

One of the BEST games of last gen.

[mafiahajeri]

Ooooooo someone missed the ps2 days...

[OC_MurphysLaw]

hmm... been in development for 3 1/2 yrs already? Seems like we would have heard something about this already if they have been working that long on it. I have my doubts.

[nucky64]

nobody ever heard anything about bloodborne; and , miyazaki said they'd been working on it ever since they finished the darksouls1 dlc.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

fair enough...just have my doubts

[WizzroSupreme]

I doubt it'll happen at E3 – Rockstar only revealed GTA V Remastered at Sony's event given that was just a rerelease they didn't bother hyping themselves, but Red Dead 2 would be sweet. Would be cool if they moved up North and did a Witcher 3 scale Pacifici Northwest game during the Alaskan Gold Rush with a new character, no Marstons. Their book's closed.

[Rimgal]

"I am a former Rockstar game dev. I will not give any more personal information for my safety. My boss was a major D***"

This is the source they used? LOL

Reddit is an open forum. Anyone can claim to be a Rockstar dev. If it was from a Neogaf user, then I would give him more credibility

[gamerfan0909]

Neogaf is full of bs artists and fake insiders. Thuway and misterx come to mind.

[ShwankyShpanky]

You think MisterX is on/from neogaf? That's hilarious.

[ShwankyShpanky]

A lonely disagree. I dare you to find one post by MisterX on neogaf.

[MonstaTruk]

"Time to get paid!"

-M.Bison (Rockstar)

[CoffeeMaker]

Red dead redemption is best rockstar game!!! NUFF SAID!

[samchez77]

Oh God I hope so. I had this on PS3 and absolutely LOVED it to the end. Western's are so refreshing.

PC PLEASE!!!!

[PsBoxGamer]

This right here just made day! Red dead was my 3rd Fav game of last gen .I played it a lot.I hope it shows up at E3 .

[averagejoe26]

Inaccurate reddit rumors make your day?

You must have a great day, everyday!

[EazyC]

New Red Dead and Midnight Club for E3 2015!

[Drithe]

You reckon?

[NeonEnigma]

I would love a red dead with a bad ass bounty hunter story line/gameplay. Bring in a little La Noire investigating to put you in the right direction, let me scope out and identify the bounty in a multitude of ways (Disguise, Spyglass, stealth), and then let me decide how and when i want to capture/eliminate the bounty (Stealth at night, trap in the morning, guns blazing during the day??)

[BitbyDeath]

Do Rockstar even know what E3 is?

[Mr_GoolyPunch]

I've heard it's going to be called "Red Dead Revolution"

[urwifeminder]

Never left the man town in the last game just rode around shot at things , played co op a few times and traded it a glorified travel simulator lol.

[Discod99]

Fake

[ScamperCamper]

Bogus. Rumors had named other titles for this, not just "2".

[SoreLoser]

Lots of confusion. People are launching cheat sites already http://www.reddeadrebellion... which says to me people have ZERO idea what is going on. Part 2? Not sure. I don't think honestly that Rockstar is going to be releasing another sequel. They are better than that. They must have something new up their sleeves.

[jmac53]

"Rockstar has never announced a game at E3, so this could be bogus!" That's why it's going to be at either Sony's or Microsoft's press conference. Whoever cut the biggest check.

[ShellB]

If they do bring it, I hope it doesn't take as long to release on PC. Everyone should experience it. But knowing R*, they will probably double dip. My 2 cents on this article.

[Garrus010]

"Rockstar has never announced a game at E3, so this could be bogus!"

- GTA Vice City Stories
- Table Tennis
- GTA IV DLC
- Agent
- GTA V PS4/One

[DafunkyRebel]

Great now we can't be amaze and surprise at E3 if they unveil it, thanks article douchebag for telling us this so we become expectant

[mushroomwig]

I would love a sequel, and a remastered version of the original wouldn't hurt either!

[KontryBoy706]

Please for the love God let this be true

[YodaCracker]

The way he describes features of the game and very specific details on certain aspects sounds completely fake to me, such as stating an exact number of missions, exactly how you unlock outfits for a certain character, or that "the PC version will arrive one month after the console release." No, just no.

A random developer would not know exact details like this. It reads as if it came from a fan's imagination of a completed game, not an actual work in progress. Just like the numerous "leaks" before GTA V's release with long lists of features that were never in the game.

Most bizarre is his claim that the game will take place in the same area as the original game, even describing returning locations like Tumbleweed. I highly, highly doubt that Rockstar has been developing "Red Dead Redemption 2" for 3 and a half years to have the game set in the same area as its 5-year old predecessor.

Rockstar is very unpredictable. I'm confident that Red Dead 3 will be a much more surprising and ambitious game than this random guy describes.

[PrinceOfAllSaiyans]

I'll believe it when I see It.

[the_mack_attack3]

This really shouldn't be news.

[skulz7]

As much as I loved Read Dead Redemption and love the series and can't wait for the sequel, these details don't intrigue me too much. Instead of a prequel I would much rather a direct sequel and I don't want three playable characters.

[XXXL]

I was hoping for a prequel I just wanted Landon Rickets to be the main character and play his adventures out that eventually led him to Mexico.

[Limegreen]

I like Red Dead Reloaded

[StrayaKNT]

Red dead was one of the best games of last gen so it's almost certain that they will be working on a sequel.

[Umbasa]

Would be great to see this at E3...

[Kalebninja]

Lol, whoever believes rockstar will make a sequel where you play as Irish is guillable as hell.

[The7Reaper]

Hope this is true I want a Red Dead 3 so bad

[PersonMan]

The info seems to be very specific (even down to characters names)... hmmm... but it could all be made up.

[jonnybeans]

lord let this rumor be true

[Mrveryodd]

Take my money you Rockstars

[NeoGamer232]

So Rockstar, who never shows up to E3 is going to reveal RDR2 there...

OK.

[KnownAsEpic]

GTA V Remastered was announced in E3

[SaveFerris]

Another Red Dead game would be great, though I'd rather they use all new characters and set it in an early time frame during the 'wild west'.

[Krad1989]

but not PC LOOOOL

[payikick]

Multiplatform..... Sure, then two years later for PC. Hopefully not the case this time around.
