One of the most anticipated games this year is Rockstar’s latest effort: Red Dead Redemption. And with good reason, the game’s shaping up to be really something. The whole western setting is enough to make me dole out $60 for it.
Rockstar is also hoping to deliver something fresh to its fans, and it doing so, Red Dead Redemption is the studio’s most “ambitious” project to date and the studio’s next “blockbuster” title.
“Red Dead Redemption is our most ambitious game to date and our biggest release this year,” Rockstar’s UK general manager Neil Stephen told MCV. “The game has garnered an incredibly positive reception from the gaming and lifestyle press with many outlets placing Red Dead Redemption as a possible game of the year contender.
This title is incredibly beautiful and on an unprecedented scale, it is populated with a staggering number of dynamic, contextual activities that you can take part in any time you wish along with a complex ecological system of animal life.”
He added: “This, combined with our most ambitious multiplayer offering to date, leaves us with very high expectations for what we think is our next blockbuster gaming franchise.”
It’s out on May 18th and on the 21st in the US and UK respective for PS3 and Xbox 360.
