| This is the map you’ll be playing in Red Dead Redemption 2 The map for Rockstar’s upcoming Red Dead Redemption 2 has leaked online, and been confirmed by our own independent source.
The map was posted to NeoGAF by someone claiming to have received it from a source, before hastily pulling it down. But this being the internet, the map had already been immortalised, although many commenters questioned its legitimacy. A source close to the development of the new Red Dead game has now confirmed to us that the map is indeed the real deal, revealing that this is a “very recent” art direction map for the upcoming title. They also confirmed that the game will be set before the events of Redemption, and that the new map is just east of the one that featured in Red Dead Redemption. If you look at the bottom left you’ll see the Great Plains, home to the Blackwater settlement that sits at the top right of the Red Dead Redemption map – so you can see how the two come together. The lack of a railroad in the Great Plains, which featured in RDR, also points to this being earlier in the timeline. While we’ve referred to the upcoming game as Red Dead Redemption 2, the name is currently unknown – so start your guesses. Red Dead Retribution sounds good to us. Rockstar did not respond to our request for comment on this story. Read More at Techradar |
