Quite sometime after its original announcement, we finally know when Red Dead Redemption 2, the new entry in the series by Rockstar Games, is going to be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in all regions.
Today, Rockstar Games confirmed that Red Dead Redemption 2 will release worldwide on October 26th, which is later than the announced Spring 2018 release window. The publisher hoped to have the game out sooner but required additional time for polish. A new batch of screenshots has also been released, and you can find them below.
