https://www.cnet.com/news/red-dead-redemption-2-everything-we-know-trailers-gameplay-prices-release-date-october-26/ > That's why people are so excited for Red Dead Redemption 2, the long-awaited follow-up that's finally set to arrive for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One gamers later this fall. First announced in October of 2016, the sequel is pitched as "an attempt to capture this pivotal moment when the age of outlaws was ending and the modern world was born." From what we know, it's actually a prequel set before the events of the first game -- and now, we have our first look at actual gameplay to tide us over until next month (it's that video embedded above, in case you didn't notice). > The prequel to Rockstar's Western epic arrives on consoles October 26th.
