Red Dead Redemption 2 Leak Drops New Info
Last week, we told you Rockstar Games announced that their highly anticipated Red Dead Redemption 2 will be arriving for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 26, 2018. While the game is still far from release, and very little information is known about it at this point, some tiny bits of info is leaking into the wild. For instance, according to a recent leak, it appears the game will include some amazing features, including a first-person mode and a battle royale mode in the same vein as PUBG and Fortnite.
A site called Trusted Reviews (oh the irony…) received some development documents some time ago. They subsequently shared them a while back and today shared several new details on the game.
According to these documents, Red Dead Redemption 2 will allow players to play both main campaign and multiplayer in a first-person view mode. Additionally, Dead Eye from the first game will make a return with enhanced abilities such as bounties tracking and more.
The document also details Red Dead Redemption 2 Online, revealing that among the available play modes there will be a Battle Royale mode. The documents reports:
“According to the notes, Red Dead Redemption 2’s online component will feature ‘Battle Royale’, ‘Revive and Survive’ and ‘Money Grab’ modes. It remains unknown whether Battle Royale will operate in a similar fashion to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds or Fortnite, but we wouldn’t be surprised if Rockstar hopes to capitalise on the popularity of those two titles.
Revive and Survive pits two teams against each other as they try and stay alive. You’ll have a limited amount of time to revive your teammates before they are eliminated. Finally, Money Grab features two teams fighting to procure bags of money in a central location. You’re expected to collect and return them to your base as quickly as possible.”
Developed by the creators of Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America’s unforgiving heartland. The game’s vast and atmospheric world will also provide the foundation for a brand new online multiplayer experience.
Red Dead Redemption 2 launches on October 26th on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in all regions.
