Rockstar teases what might be Red Dead Redemption follow-up

Timely, with Westworld just premiering

[Update:The saga continues. They’vejust tweeted out another hintthat looks like an obvious nod towards a newRed Deadgame. The reveal of multiple cast members could lead to aGTA V-like character switching system.]

Rockstar got a lot of traction this weekend for a simple tweet — their logo (which I still confuse for the Rockstar energy drink joint), with a red background on it.

Naturally people are jumping on the “it’s a newRed Dead Redemption!” (which is technicallyRed Dead 3, or maybeRed Dead Redemption 2) train, and why wouldn’t they? The publisher just released the original on both Xbox One via backward compatibility and the PS4, so it stands to reason that these past few months have been building up hype for a potential follow-up.

Since it’s Rockstar they’ve probably been taking their sweet old time, but I would expect to hear something about their next project in the near future since they’re still coasting on the fumes ofGTA Online.
