Well that didn’t take long. After a couple days of mysterious tweets, which everyone guessed was hinting about a sequel to Red Dead Redemption, Rockstar Games has officially announced Red Dead Redemption 2.

Not many details were given, but it sounds like there will be a major online component as “the game’s vast and atmospheric world will also provide the foundation for a brand new online multiplayer experience.” A trailer will be released next Thursday at 11am ET and at this time it looks like the game will be releasing on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 (sorry PC gamers).
“With Red Dead Redemption 2, the team is working hard to push forward our vision for interactive entertainment in a truly living world,” said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. “We hope to deliver players an epic experience that builds upon everything we’ve learned making games.”
