Rockstar takes an entirely different direction and goes western.
Rockstar Games has announced Red Dead Revolver for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox. The game is an arcade style third-person shooter combining a multilayered storyline and fast-paced action to bring to life that old "spaghetti western" feel of old shows."We are excited to announce this astounding new franchise which portrays one of the most fascinating periods of time in American history," said Sam Houser, President of Rockstar Games. "Red Dead Revolver is Rockstar Games' first foray into the Wild West and the Rockstar production team is eager to deliver an engaging and visually stunning experience that pays homage to this era."
"With this game, we have pushed ourselves technically, stylistically and gameplay wise further than ever before," said Diego Angel, President of Rockstar San Diego. "We are aiming to make a western experience that sparks memories of the past as well as looks forward with an inventive new approach."
Developed by Rockstar San Diego, the game is slated for a Spring 2004 release.
