Arthur Morgan is front and center.

65 Comments

The newest trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2 is finally here, and that's not the only revelation about the much-anticipated western today. What appears to be the game's box art has popped up online at places like Amazon and Rockstar's own website. It shows main character Arthur Morgan pointing a revolver with a menacing look on his face. Also on the page are seven silhouettes, which are presumably the other members of the Van der Linde gang who are at the heart of the story.

What's more, the striking box art shows the stars of the American flag. Overall, the art has a warm, red-and-orange color scheme with forest trees alluding to locations in the game.

Now Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 - Official Trailer 3

No Caption Provided

Red Dead Redemption 2 is set in 1899 America, 12 years before the events of 2010's Red Dead Redemption. The story picks up after a robbery goes wrong in Blackwater, with Morgan and the gang on the run; federal agents and bounty hunters are tracking them down. "As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him," reads a line from Rockstar's official description of the story.

The new Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer is stuffed with interesting details; here are 11 fascinating details we caught in the new video.

Red Dead Redemption 2 launches on October 26 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Rockstar Games historically does not have a big presence at E3, but anything is possible, especially considering Rockstar's partnership with Sony to give PlayStation gamers first access to some of Red Dead Redemption 2's online content.

Here's hoping it doesn't take up the last 100GBs left on my PS4.

@revanxknight: if it gets a 4k patch it could run around 100gb maybe more.

Gears 4 is native 4k with 4k texture and it's well above 100gb. It's above 100gb on the standard console.

Big AAA games take up a lot of space now a days.

@revanxknight: I dunno. Uncharted 4 alone is over 60gbs and considering RDR2 is a larger scale game...

@redhedjack: Is it? I have yet to play Uncharted 4 (I know, burn me at the stake) so I was unaware. If that’s the case then maybe it will be. Considering RDR2 is an open world containing endless amounts of assets and such.

@revanxknight: Yeah it's largely due to many games these days being insistent on using supermegaultra textures.

@redhedjack: those textures is what makes buying that 4ktv worth it.

Hope rdr2 can get close to 4k. The cleaner the picture the better.

@cainetao11: hey this game being released gave God of War a chance to succeed. Imagine if rdr2 would've came out on its intended release date which I think it was 4 20.

It would've killed half of the god of war lifetime sales.

@neoistheone: I don't think it would have done that much damage to GoW. The game is great and people would still want to play it
