"Red Dead Redemption 2" Details Leak
Before "Read Dead Redemption 2" was officially announced, two former Rockstar employees hinted that the title is coming.
A listener asked Danny Ross, an ex-Rockstar employee, if there is something new from Rockstar. Ross answered with a cryptic message and said, "Really? Dumbass. Really? Two." The listeners were quick enough to pick up the leads and interpret it as "Red Dead Redemption 2."
AnonDN1978 is another former Rockstar employee who revealed the same report about the game. However, his revelations were more specific and condensed. He teased that the next game will be titled "Red Dead Redemption 2: Legends of the West" and that two characters will be joining the gameplay.
Two New Characters
AnonDN1978 shared that two main characters will be arriving in "Red Dead Redemption 2" -- Irish and Seth. The former lives in Ireland but then decided to move to the United States at the age of 15. He will be introduced in the game when he is 21.
Meanwhile, Seth is a bank teller in Kansas who heard about the treasure in Tumbleweed, Texas. He will use his savings to move to the place, but the plot will be more difficult and challenging for him because he will eventually lose his family and possessions for the said treasure.
