Red Dead Redemption 2 is the latest chapter in the hit open-world RPG franchise from the makers of Grand Theft Auto. A prequel to the original Read Dead Redemption, RDR2 is set in a classic western world at the turn of the 19th century, when modernization was sweeping across the American continent, much to the disdain of free-roaming outlaws. You play as one of these outlaws and are struggling to hold together your gang against the law, rival gangs, the mafia, and an oil magnate.
