The "Red Dead Redemption 2" release date, along with some details about the game, may have been leaked online if reports and rumors are to be believed.
According to a report by Steff Lyn Smetham of CrossMap, a bunch of new details about "Red Dead Redemption 2" has been allegedly leaked on Reddit.
As was noted on the report, a Redditor named AnonDN1978 revealed that the "Red Dead Redemption 2" release date is going to be on 2016 and that it has been on active development at Rockstar for about three and half years. The report also mentions that "Red Dead Redemption 2" is allegedly going to be called "Red Dead Redemption 2: Legends of the West".
"The sequel will be called Red Dead Redemption 2: Legends of the West...Its been in dev for the last three and a half years. It could be canceled for release this year, but whatever happens RS wouldn't throw it out the door," says AnonDN1978 on the rumored Reddit link.
CrossMap also reports that "Red Dead Redemption 2" will have three protagonists, one of which will be a player-made character, where users can customize it whatever they want.
"The upcoming 'Red Dead Redemption 2' will have 2 main characters and an additional customizable one; so in total there'll be three," adds CrossMap.
Meanwhile, Sarmad Lillah of Segment Next speculates that Rockstar may actually announce "Red Dead Redemption 2" on Gamescom 2015, following reports that the game developer was set to announce it on E3 2015.
"If you remember, there was an apparently solid rumor that the game will be unveiled at E3 2015, but that was not the case...we are sure the announcement will come anytime now. For that reason, the only suitable time that comes to my mind currently is Gamescom 2015," reports Segment Next.
The article also mentions that the Microsoft Panel could be the home to the "Red Dead Redemption 2" announcement as they reasoned that Microsoft is planning to equal their E3 2015 announcements with their planned announcements for Gamescom 2015.
According to Segment Next, "Another reason why the reveal could be targeting Gamescom is that Microsoft has been boasting of having equally awesome announcements to make at the event as they had at E3. There aren't many other games on the card that could equal the hype of RDR2."
Gamescom 2015 is scheduled to take place from August 5 to 9 in Cologne, Germany.
