On Thursday, Rockstar Games announced the release date for Red Dead Redemption 2 and they also gave out a few screenshots. Red Dead Redemption 2 has been a long time coming and I can’t wait to share my impressions with you on October 26th, 2018. I’ll discuss these screenshots and some more going in-depth when they release trailers and some more screenshots. Let’s delve into it!

Absolutely breathtaking. In this screenshot, Arthur is about to maybe face off with the Law enforcement that’s chasing after him or maybe that’s his gang.

Another breathtaking view of the open world. The landscape seems to be inspired by the Rocky mountains in the Midwest.

Here, we see Arthur Morgan getting himself into a gunfight. Notice how great the game looks, I’m wondering if this is the RAGE 2 engine. Given the extra power of the Xbox One X and the technology behind the PS4, Rockstar Games can truly bring the American Frontier to life. Notice the destruction in the background.

In this screenshot, Arthur and Dutch and maybe the rest of the gang are in the snow and going somewhere else. In the trailer, it is noted that Arthur is on the run from the law so maybe they’re on their way to a safe spot. Notice how each of the gang’s faces are blurred out, I wonder if one of them is John Marston and Bill.

Here, we see Morgan and two members of his gang getting themselves into a gunfight. Notice how good-looking the game is, once again Rockstar’s attention to detail is immaculate.

Here’s another screenshot of that mysterious woman that we got to see in the trailer. I wonder who she is and what’s her relationship to Arthur, in some way the relationship between them will be strong but in what way? We’ll have to find out.

American sunset. The game is absolutely stunning and the open world is breathtaking.
