Red Dead Redemption 2 news: Shock update before PS4 and Xbox One | Game | Entertainment

Analysts believe that Red Dead Redemption 2 could be another massive success for Rockstar Games and its parent Take-Two Interactive.

Although it is not very shocking to hear that people believe that RDR2 will sell, some people think that the game has a good idea to emulate the success of GTA 5.

And it's a very difficult act to follow.

GTA 5 is not only one of the best selling games of all time, but it also has a thriving online community that brings in a lot of money.

And even after five years on the shelves, GTA 5 still manages to get back on the charts.

So, when analysts predict that Red Dead Redemption 2 could follow, it becomes a great investment opportunity.

"We continue to favor Red Dead for these holidays, while our long-term thesis is unchanged: Take-Two has the biggest track to benefit from the transition to digital, [microtransactions] change, expansion of margins and multiple expansion of streaming content offerings, "writes analyst Justin Post.

"We are above the tips and have modeled for 18 [million] units but given [“Grand Theft Auto 5”] success, eight years of development and consumer desire for original content, we see the potential upward.

This upside potential will depend on the online experience of RDR2 that mimics the success of GTA Online.

And from the fact that Take-Two made fun of it, it seems like Rockstar Games is doing its best to make something that needs to be transformed.

Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two, believes that the multiplayer experience could be a colossal success, according to a report on profits:

"We, Take-Two, Rockstar Games, have never done anything like this. We did not know what to expect. And the rate of its extraordinary, continuous success is new to us.

"Does that explain how we look at the titles that come after? Well, of course, that's the case. But the nature of our collective approach, especially the nature of the Rockstar Games approach, should never be derived and always break expectations.

"And my belief is that Red Dead Redemption 2 will break expectations and that the online experience will also be extraordinary, but unexpected. And in my opinion, all great successes are, by nature, unexpected.

"So, that's the goal. There is an expectation around the table, here, of course, Rockstar games and consumers are expected to wait.

"But our job is to exceed those expectations. And fingers crossed, that's what we're doing. And we could not predict it and we did not think it was Grand Theft Auto V and we would not believe it with Red Dead Redemption 2. So, we're just at work, doing the best job possible. can. "

Rockstar Games recently shared some big news before launching a title that could succeed the success of GTA 5.

It seems that John Marston, star of the franchise Red Dead, is not available as a playable character.

The game will focus on the infamous Van der Linde gang and will also feature a young Marston.

But it seems that there will not be the changing character mechanics of GTA 5, which means that Marston will remain in extended distribution.

Artistic director of the game, Josh Bass, recently spoke to the Hollywood Reporter, confirming that fans will focus on RDR 2 person Arthur Morgan.

"Sticking with a single character was more appropriate to the structure and story of a western," Bass said.

"Arthur lives and fights alongside the other members of the Van der Linde gang, and they form a group of fully conscious characters who have relationships with each other and with Arthur, but that's the story of the day. Arthur and we firmly place the players in Arthur's boots. he and the gang are facing a fast-changing world.

"We think people will really like the feeling of being in the gang. This is not what we did before.
