Dear All,

We are excited to announce that Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released on October 26th 2018. We apologize to everyone disappointed by this delay. While we had hoped to have the game out sooner, we require a little extra time for polish.

We sincerely thank you for your patience and hope that when you get to play the game, you will agree the wait will have been worth it. In the meantime, please check out these screenshots from the game. We look forward to sharing a lot more information with you in the coming weeks.

With thanks,
Rockstar Games

Beat me do it. Still over 8 months of waiting.

[Xerukal]

Add another year or two to that date and we've got ourselves the PC release.

 

Snow region hype.

[Piggsy pls]

Not surprising. Pretty much like V then, coming out two years after the intial announcement.

[Kirsty]

I'm not surprised, but I'm not mad, I'm just glad they've finally let the cat out of the bag and told us. Those screenshots look absolutely stunning!

[Non Funkable Token]

Jeez....

[Caysle]

Graphics remind me of BF1

 

Very nice indeed

[HandSoap2811]

i want to cry seriously

[BS_BlackScout]

 

They really can't stick to schedules... Well, as long as it's a guarantee of a bug free experience.
Still disappointing though.

 

On the other hand, beautiful screenshots!!

Slightly shocked but I was fully expecting this. God damn it Rockstar, God damn it.

[UAL]

Come on guys we saw this coming from a mile off. I'm not even disappointed because I knew this would be the case.

 

But on the flipside those screens look f*cking incredible. Loving the more realistic looking style, defo cant wait to find more out about the game in the coming weeks (Which probably means months but still)

[DGSimo]

We knew this was coming. That said whew at those screens.

 

Outfit changes.

Destructible environments?

Snow sticking to the characters

Different holstering even on horseback

[Mr. Morgan]

I'm a rational and well-adjusted adult individual and I will not cry over this.

 

JUST KIDDING LOL

[happygrowls]

I mean, honestly if they need extra time to make the game good then I'm all for it.

 

AC Origins was delayed by a year and it turned out to be an amazing experience.

Hope RDR2 is the same.

[Spider-Vice]

One thing is certain though: those god damned graphics! It looks so sharp too I wouldn't be surprised it these were 4K images downscaled to 1080p.

[BS_BlackScout]

Environment destruction looks fantastic.

Most likely running on PS4 Pro.

[Matrelith]

A few days after my birthday, this'll be a great present.

The screenshots are looking mighty fine

I hope this delay will give them plenty of time to fix some low-res textures too. Arthur's arm looks ridiculous

[Vespid]

 

This gotta be Mr. JOHN MARSTON!

[greenrock]

This gotta be Mr. JOHN MARSTON!

thats clearly Arthur

[El Dorado]

Environment destruction looks fantastic.

 

I bet my 2 cents that this is just a cutscene shot. Do not expect "environment destruction" in-game.

i'd say xbox one x perhaps, that is more powerful than the PS4 pro

 

exclusivity deal doesnt mean screencaps come from the console

 

this is likely an early pc port?

its hard to tell

[Jason]

Well, that's that.

[Vespid]

 

This gotta be Mr. JOHN MARSTON!

thats clearly ArthurHow the hell is he clearly Arthur?? Could not be Marston but how Arthur?

[DlZZEE]

I'm not going to defend Rockstar over this again, they need to stop announcing release dates so early. It's just getting irritating at this point, how about you confirm the date when you're absolutely sure that it's coming at that time and the game is nearly finished??

[Jabalous]

Damn, those screenshots are very beautiful.

[greenrock]

by the way do we know if this guy is Arthur or another character

 

if its Arthur it confirms clothes/hat options

 

[Spider-Vice]

I bet the game si going to have a super high quality 1080p mode and a lesser-so 4K mode. I think these may be taken from the 4K mode (re: textures). Also, they seem to be doing a lot of real time lighting and stuff which is super demanding, I don't mind if they have to make some sacrifices because the bulk of it looks reeeeeeeally good.

[Kippers]

Excellent! Happy to finally hear the news. October is when I would have expected the release date anyways, I think.
