Support NeoGAF

[double jump]

I think they come out at Microsoft's press conference. Marketing deal, and BC for RDR. And then it releases May 2017.

This sounds extremely plausible.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

Yes please! Bring it Rockstar!

 

[silva1991]

I will take this or Agent

we don't need GTA anytime soon.

 

[Screaming Meat]

That looks awesome.

 

[Simo]

there is no need for the word rumor in the title of this thread

Yeah there is because there's no confirmation this is from the new Red Dead. We pretty much know a new one is coming but I just treated the art as a rumor. lol

 

[drotahorror]

Bottom right is the lead singer of Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Excited to play alongside him in Red Dead Redemption 2 !

I thought it was The Hound.

Then they come out during Sony's presser and reveal RDR remastered, PS4/PC exclusive.

 

[kraspkibble]

Red dead is for sure happening, right? Hopefully they don't ruin the online like GTAV.

It will happen, there is no doubt about it. The question is when. TakeTwo confirmed Red Dead is a permanent series so there will be another game.

 

[DeepEnigma]

I know it is semantics (since most know what you mean)... but it would be RDR3 people, when using the acronym.

 

[Raptor]

I want a remaster more than sequel myself lols.

Zombies included damn it.

If there is a sequel they have to keep the Dead Eye mechanic.

A MAN MUST DREAM.

Honestly, if they announced any version of a port for PC, I'd be the happiest ever.

 

[Jamaro85]

Here's something. Happened yesterday night and just got fixed moments ago right afterwards. R* gearin up for that announcement yo.

What are the odds of somebody happening to stumble upon something like this right before it gets corrected? I'm going to lean towards this being edited in.

 

[Stiler]

I know it is semantics (since most know what you mean)... but it would be RDR3 people, when using the acronym.

If it's Red Dead REDEMPTION 2 then it wouldn't.

Red Dead Revolver just isn't a game many people who played rdr even know existed, let alone played, so to the general public it would make sense if it is indeed called Red Dead Redemption to have a 2 after it rather than a 3, otherwise people will be confused and thinking they somehow missed the sequel to Red Dead Redemption.

 

[t hicks]

i neeeeeeed this game ASAP
come thru soon R*... pls...

 

[BabyFaceKillah]

That would be stupid.

I think it'll just be Red Dead (something). Not sure if it'll keep the Redemption part, since that's not very important. To me, it would be like making a GTA San Andreas II.

 

[hamid]

its happening

 

[MMarston]

Real or not, I feel like R* is actively fucking with us already with this amount of leaks.

Semantics, what doeseth it mean?



What I am saying is, they will more than likely follow the trend and call it RD(insert a new R word) to make it the 3rd Red Dead in the series.

However, I can see them also sticking with Redemption 2 for the sake of PR hand holding (I hope not).

I have a feeling it will be a prequel as well judging by the artwork, and timeline of events towards the end of Redemption.

 

[Ivan 3414]

Could be any depiction of any cowboy media. Not seeing how this would excite anyone

 

[DuffDry]

It's Red Dead 3, guys.

A game doesn't just exit existence simply because you didn't play it.

 

[Alpende]

What are the odds of somebody happening to stumble upon something like this right before it gets corrected? I'm going to lean towards this being edited in.

You can monitor pages for minor changes. Maybe a guy set up a page monitor and got a notification something changed?

 

[gunslikewhoa]

Here we go. Time for our hype to officially go into HYPEerdrive.

I don't know how this changes anything. We pretty much 100% know a Red Dead is coming eventually.

 

[ultrazilla]

I was talking to my brother last night about the fun we had playing Red Dead Redemption on the 360. Just an amazing game. So full of atmosphere and amazing gameplay. We consider it Rockstar's best open world game to date even better than their recent GTA V.

I will seriously have a meltdown if *something* Red Dead isn't announced or shown by Rockstar at E3.

Hold me NeoGAF!

Spoiler

Rockstar is going to show the remaster and part 2 right?

OMG it just occurred to me.

Spoiler

The reason they haven't made Red Dead Redemption backwards compatible for the 360 is because they're announcing the remaster will be made available IMMEDIATELY during E3!!!

 

[Tatsumi Oga]

This sounds extremely plausible.

Yup, definitely plausible.

But on the other hand, Rockstar has had deals with Sony for a while now and Sony also was the one announcing GTA V for current gen. Of course things can change.

 

[Haines]

I wish I actually finished the first one. Bugs me to this day.

I had great fun playing it today on my Xbox 360, that game really is a masterpiece!

I was also thinking that too.
Red Dead Redemption was playable through backwards compatibility and the performance looked alright, I don't know they pulled it and haven't returned it, I found that really odd.

I kind of doubt it would be available immediately though. Maybe the backwards compatible version will be, but how did it become available in the first place? I thought BC games require confirmation from the developers or the publisher?

Was it really just some weird glitch that made it go up before it was ready? Or will they just do the remaster?

It's been over 4 months now since it was backwards compatible and taken down.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

So finally, is it a remake, a sequel or a prequel?

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Do we think they'll do three main characters again? A John Marston type, an Indian with totally different combat mechanics, and a badass gunslinging woman? Yes please.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

So finally, is it a remake, a sequel or a prequel?

cant be a remake that concept art looks like a prequel

 

[XAL]

That art is so bad.

Like what.

 

[sarcastor]

i would settle for a Red Dead Redemption port to PC pleasseeeeeee

 

[soultron]

Doesn't look anything I'd expect RDR2 to look like. Some of the costuming choices look out of place in the era, like the Caucasian dude's 2-tone slacks. The Native American sleeve tattoos also look really out of line with what I think the game would look like.

It looks like it's all part of a goofier, more exaggerated Western game.

 

[Corpsepyre]

I think the most important question here is whether this comes to the PC or not.

 

[oatmeal]

FUUUUUHUUUUHUUUUUUCKKKKK

 

[dcelw540]

It could be nothing or something but a ex-Rockstar employee who was a senior artist at Rockstar London has some interesting artwork on her site:
Artist's Site (Scroll down for the Western Concept)

Her linkedin profile shows she was with Rockstar from 2010 to 2014 before leaving to work for Deep Silver Dambuster Studios and worked on Homefront: The Revolution.

I bet she regrets that decision.

 

[Servbot24]

That art is so bad.

Like what.

Yeah I'm a little confused by this. I don't want to talk bad about the artist and I don't know who works at R*, but wouldn't they hire someone much more professional?

edit: Oh, it looks like she's more of a 3D environment artist.

 

[jesu]

LET THE SCALPING BEGIN!!!!

I've got 3 tickets to the next Rockstar San Diego games if you want them?
$200 each.

 

[NESpowerhouse]

I bet it will be called Red Dead Rising

Spoiler

Revengeance

 

[Robot Pants]

I think the most important question here is whether this comes to the PC or not.

My guess is yes

 

[jesu]

Can't wait to see what effect Leslie Benz really had on Rockstar games!

 

[RootCause]

I feel like we're not going to get a Red Dead game this gen.

I bet it will be called Red Dead Rising

Spoiler

Revengeance

Lol I knew you were going to end it with that.

 

[Simo]

Update: The artwork is from the artist's personal project and has no connection with Red Dead.

Ah well wrap it up. At least it gave us something for a day to talk about until the big conferences on Monday. lol

 

[Pound_lb003]

Please. Let me believe still.

There's no such thing as a personal project. This has to be real and very red dead.

 

[Joeku]

Do we think they'll do three main characters again? A John Marston type, an Indian with totally different combat mechanics, and a badass gunslinging woman? Yes please.

Calling two characters: White guy and half-Indian. At the end they have to duel for some reason and you pick which one you play as and have to kill the other, then do post-game as that character.

 

[Galactic Barret]

Please, PLEASE let me play as a Native. Thats what I need in my life.

Such an low quality image, where's your source?

 

[LightOfTruth]

It doesnt seem likely but I'm hoping for just 1 main character.

 

[ScientificPizza]

It doesnt seem likely but I'm hoping for just 1 main character.

yeah, me too. i didn't feel like the three characters really added that much to v, and so much of the atmosphere of redemption was about being this lone gunslinger going through the dying old west
