This is from an Asked and Answered post on R*'s website back in July 2012: “All I wanna know is is there goin to be a new Red Dead game any time soon?”–via Facebook“Will there ever be a sequel or prequel to #RDR I am Red Dead mad!!”–@liquidh20stevew (via Twitter) ''Awesome, we love Red Dead too – and are thrilled that so many of you loved John Marston’s tale and are excited for more epic Western action. As we mentioned in our last set of Asked & Answereds to similar questions about the future of other game franchises like Bully and L.A. Noire, we don’t always rush to make sequels but that does not mean that we won’t get to them eventually. Stay tuned for further announcements about the future of the Red Dead series.'' So, basically, they're saying that they haven't even started thinking about a new Red Dead. :( I think R* is a little stymied on where to go at this point, especially considering Redemption is the waning days of he Wild West... From what I understand, they weren't prepared for Redemption to be the hit that it was, probably based on the fact that Revolver was so poorly received, so they were caught completely off-guard by Redemption's popularity. Whatever they decide to do, R* has its work cut out for it in attempting to top Redemption.
