Red Dead Redemption 2, one of the greatest blessings of 2018, literally shook up the gaming world and set new standards. Its stunning graphics, immersive atmosphere, detailed characters and tragic story have made Red Dead Redemption 2 worthy of numerous awards.
Fans of the RDR series also turned their attention to the third game after the leap between the first game and this game. Players who were waiting for something, even a little, from the developer were greeted today with the news that “Red Dead Redemption 3 has been approved”, which was quite exciting at first. But we regret to say that these news are unfounded.
The emerging developments are based on the statements of Take-Two Interactive CEO in 2021.
In other words, since what was said 2 years ago is on the agenda again, Red Dead Redemption 3 is currently being talked about and news is being presented as if Rockstar Games has officially announced the game. When you look at the statements of Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick in 2021, you cannot even see anything that directly points to RDR 3.
What were these explanations?
Speaking at the Jefferies Virtual Global Interactive Entertainment Conference in November 2021, Zelnick was asked about the lifespan of the productions at the core of the company, namely the GTA and RDR series. Zelnick said that “something that is really, really good will continue.” After this, Zelnick talked about the James Bond movie that was released at that time and said; “You want every franchise out there to be like James Bond,” he said.
Later, Zelnick stated that he saw the GTA and Red Dead series in this class. He even put the NBA in the same class as the Bond movies, as it was something that would continue as an example.
However, both domestic and foreign press took these statements and interpreted them as the future of Red Dead Redemption 3. Yes, we have no doubt that Red Dead Redemption 3 will come, but we cannot say that it has been officially confirmed unless a reliable source states this.
At this time, Zelnick stated that the games at the core of the company could be as long-lasting as James Bond. Although this statement shows that new games will come, it does not give us the material to say that GTA 6 or RDR 3 has been approved.
