Over the past few days, several high-profile social media accounts have begun spreading the word “Red Dead Redemption 3 has been confirmed”. The topic took such great proportions that it became popular and began to be discussed by the wider gaming community.
But what exactly happened? Has Rockstar Games really announced a sequel? The short answer is noHowever, the posts are based on actual fact. In particular, they focus on a previous statement by the CEO of Take-Two, Rockstar’s parent company. especially, Strauss Zelnick had indirectly confirmed that Red Dead would continue, to talk At the virtual World Interactive Entertainment Conference in November 2021.
In this context, it has been questioned whether a company’s core franchises have a finite lifespan or whether they can theoretically continue to live on permanently, regardless of broader changes in the industry and various technological developments.
His answer didn’t leave much room for interpretation, which practically confirms that Red Dead will continue. In particular, Zelnick emphasized the following:
If the IP is really great, it will stick. I don’t know if you’ve seen it, but I just watched the new Bond movie, which was great. In theory, you want every franchise to be like James Bond.
There are very few franchises in entertainment that would fall into this category, but they do exist. And I think GTA is one of them, I think Red Dead is one of them, and obviously the NBA is one of them, because the sport of basketball will continue to exist.
So, no, there hasn’t been any new development regarding Rockstar Games’ western franchise, but the Take-Two CEO’s statements from 2021 make perfect sense. With over 55 million sales worldwide, Red Dead Redemption 2 is ranked alongside GTA V in the top ten most successful games of all time. It would therefore be unlikely that such commercial intellectual property would be given away. With the beloved team’s attention fully focused on the next GTA game, you better have a lot of patience!
