Rockstar Games releases Red Dead Redemption 2 Launch Trailer
While we typically cover PC games at OC3D, Rockstar has a habit of bringing their games over to PC after their console counterparts have been completed, with Grand Theft Auto 4, LA Noire, Bully: Scholarship Edition and Grand Theft Auto V acting as examples. That being said, none of the Red Dead series’ previous entries have ever made it to the PC platform.Â
Rockstar Games typically release with spectacular levels of graphical quality alongside memorable story modes, with the addition of online elements with GTA V’s GTX Online mode propelling the series to glorious new heights, with GTA V remaining one of PC gaming’s most popular games to this day. It would be foolish for Rockstar to keep the Red Dead Franchise away from the PC platform, especially this time given the hardware similarities of modern gaming PCs and consoles.Â
  America, 1899. The end of the Wild West era has begun. After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him. Â
Red Dead Redemption 2 will release on October 26th on PS4 and Xbox One, with the game offering an updated version of the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE), with the game acting as Rockstar’s first exclusive title for modern console hardware/platforms.Â
