In news that will shock no-one, Rockstar Games have today announced that Red Dead Redemption 2 - previously scheduled for release this year; will now slip to Spring 2018.

A slew of new screenshots have been released to tide over those hungry for news on the anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed open-world Western game released back in 2010. Check them out below...

Red Dead Redemption 2 is now set to launch Spring 2018 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This outlaw epic set across the vast and unforgiving American heartland will be the first Rockstar game created from the ground up for the latest generation of console hardware, and some extra time is necessary to ensure that we can deliver the best experience possible for our fans.

We are very sorry for any disappointment this delay causes, but we are firm believers in delivering a game only when it is ready. We are really excited to bring you more details about the game this summer. In the meantime, please enjoy this selection of new screenshots from the world of Red Dead Redemption 2.

I can't believe the game everyone thought would get delayed got delayed!

Really, though, those screenshots look sweet.
Yeah, it's bound to be an incredible game. They can take all the time they need as far as I'm concerned. The screenshots ooze atmosphere and I can't wait to play it.

It's going to be BOTW all over again, it will get lots of high marks, some "pro" reviewer will give it a 7/10 and he'll be doxxed or whatever, then there will be a 7/10 on the GBATemp review section, and blogs saying that it's not a 10/10 game.

Still haven't played Red Dead Redemption 1 :P
Really should get around to it, tho, becoz it seems like one of those titular titles that everyone should play eventually. Might be time to blow the dust off the ol' 360
Play it. It's one of the best games of the previous generation in my opinion.

I still have to play it seriously. I just can't.
It is too open, and I end up taking it up, going into a city and skinning a couple of dogs *psycho* and running away in my horse from the furious owners and wannabe bounty hunters. Then I happen to be in the middle of nowhere and without a clue of what to do next. I put it down, until after a month or so when the cycle repeats.

Maybe actually try doing some of the quests?
