Pink Useless Redemption 3 has been a subject for followers ever for the reason that conclusion of RDR 2. Contemplating the franchise’s large success, the query for the sequel is extra of “when” as a substitute of “if.” The title’s predecessor was a well-received and culturally important launch throughout the gaming trade. Regardless of being half a decade previous, discovering new secrets and techniques throughout the recreation is just not uncommon.
A threequel hasn’t been confirmed by Rockstar Video games but, however many are already interested in who they’ll see, the place it may go, and what it may entail. Given Rockstar’s eager eye for element, they’ll be challenged to reside as much as Pink Useless Redemption 2.
How the Story Might Go
The Pink Useless Redemption video games revolve across the Van der Linde gang—the three most important protagonists—John Marston, his son Jack Marston, and Arthur Morgan. Within the earlier happenings of RDR, John and Arthur (spoiler alert) have met their demise, making Jack the one playable character who’s survived the ordeal to seem sooner or later recreation.
In Pink Useless Redemption 2, Jack was kidnapped by the Bureau of Investigation, enemies of the Van der Linge gang. They kidnapped him and his mom, forcing John to search out his allies. Jack was comparatively shielded from a lifetime of violence, due to John and his spouse Abigail, however when Edgar Ross—a Bureau agent—betrayed and killed his father, Jack needed to get revenge in RDR’s epilogue.
It’s comprehensible if we might see Jack having points with the federal government after the betrayal and homicide of his father. This might doubtlessly kind a considerable a part of his arc shifting ahead. Should you paid consideration to what occurred in Pink Useless Redemption’s 1914 epilogue, the US was about to enter World Warfare I. With Congress passing the Selective Service Act, all folks within the U.S. between the ages of 21 and 30 had been required to register for navy service. Jack would have been 22 by this time, making him eligible; nonetheless, given his mistrust for the federal government, he might not be a part of willingly.
By the conclusion of Pink Useless Redemption 2, Jack is a needed man after avenging his father. Between what occurred previously and the horrors of going to struggle, it’s not an excessive amount of of a stretch to see that he may develop into a radical determine within the story.
RDR 3 is Presently Not on the Listing of Priorities
Presently, there’s no phrase on whether or not Rockstar Video games is engaged on Pink Useless Redemption 3. We did get the disappointing information in 2022 that they allegedly stopped work on an RDR remaster. Holding that in thoughts, shouldn’t that imply they managed to liberate some assets within the improvement groups? However it appears to be like like they’re specializing in different issues, particularly since Grand Theft Auto is getting its sixth iteration.
It’s a secure wager that Rockstar will finally work on the Pink Useless Redemption 2 sequel in the event that they don’t have already got folks going forward with pre-planning. Bear in mind, Pink Useless Redemption 2 was developed in 8 years, so I’m not shocked if we additionally need to very long time earlier than we get any necessary information or details about RDR 3.
Rockstar’s Promise
Whereas Rockstar hasn’t stated something about Pink Useless Redemption 3, they did focus on the upcoming modifications to the bogus intelligence of their video games.
Rockstar Video games promised the next modifications to their AI in a presentation:
Machine studying approaches
Higher parity between player-controlled and AI characters
Enhance the standard of animals and people and responsiveness whereas lowering manufacturing prices
It’s secure to imagine that these modifications may also discover their means into RDR 3. It may not be large information, however there are sufficient grounds for hypothesis.
The Launch Timeline Has Me Frightened
When Pink Useless Redemption 2 was launched, the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 had been already 5 years previous. Regardless of the consoles being midway via their lifespan, the sport churned tens of millions of copies. However can the identical technique be repeated this time?
Ought to Pink Useless Redemption 3 launch on an analogous schedule, then we will count on it to be on retailer cabinets someday earlier than the top of 2024. And that’s if Rockstar has the sport on their precedence checklist. Sadly, there’s no proof that they’re creating an RDR 2 sequel—given how they’ve allotted their efforts to GTA VI.
Because it stands, Pink Useless Redemption 3 is just not on observe to satisfy the timeframes established by the earlier releases within the sequence. Console generations are finicky, some lasting longer than others (taking a look at you, Nintendo). Whereas RDR 3’s eventual launch is all however assured, I can’t deny that the potential for it occurring on a present technology console will get much less seemingly with every day that passes.
Pink Useless Redemption 3 is Nonetheless Years Away
With Rockstar Video games totally centered on the upcoming Grand Theft Auto recreation, it’s no shock that Pink Useless Redemption 3 could possibly be eons away from manufacturing. We’re nonetheless years away from getting a teaser trailer—a lot much less for a launch date drop. By the point RDR 3 does get launched, the following console technology might already be in manufacturing.
