Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the titles dedicated gamers have been waiting for since they finished playing the franchise's first installment. Fans of the first RDR have followed the sequel's development since Rockstar Games, the company that developed the game, announced its release. Despite the company's efforts to keep the sequel's launch date a surprise for fans, however, it may have been leaked by one of its retail sellers.
In a posting on Amazon's website in Italy, a release date for Red Dead Redemption 2 is listed. Based on the posting, the second installment will be available to customers on March 30, 2018. The date listed is in line with when the title is expected to be released, which is sometime in the spring of 2018 as stated by various reports.
Take-Two Interactive has not confirmed or denied the date listed in the post. But the listing does prove that the game developer is revving up for the game's release since a webpage is already being created for it.
So fans can breathe easy, knowing that RDR2 will likely not be delayed again. In fact, according to The Motley Fool, Take-Two Interactive changed its prediction for the sequel title's earnings from operating activities. The company doubled the expected revenue to $300 million, due to the success of Grand Theft Auto V and NBA 2k18.
