‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ has finally got an official release date. Gamers around the world have been waiting nearly two years for the highly anticipated game.
According to Dexerto, the ‘Red Dead’ was first announced back in October 2016 and gamers were over the moon. The hype was huge and excitement was building. But there were delays.
In May 2017, when gamers were expecting it to drop, Rockstar Games announced the release of ‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ had been delayed and would come out later. Since then, there was no word from the developers and gamers were becoming frustrated. Then four months ago a new trailer for the game was uploaded to YouTube, making people think the game would come out soon.
