The query followers have is, what is going to Rockstar’s subsequent sport be? Bloomberg compares the discharge of GTA 6 to GTA 3, in that the primary 3D GTA sport paved the best way for the quickfire launch of Grand Theft Auto: Vice Metropolis, which launched a yr later in 2002. Might Rockstar quickly observe GTA 6 with one other GTA sport, maybe centered on one other metropolis?
Many hope and anticipate Rockstar to make Crimson Useless Redemption 3, though Rockstar itself hasn’t indicated it has plans to achieve this. A yr in the past, Rockstar Video games co-founder and former lead author Dan Houser stated RDR3 “will in all probability occur.” In 2023, Roger Clark, who performed Arthur Morgan, the principle playable protagonist of Crimson Useless Redemption 2, stated he was “sure” followers would see Crimson Useless Redemption 3 “sooner or later,” however certified that assertion by saying he had no concept when that will be. Clark additionally dominated out the return of Arthur Morgan within the sport, ought to it come to be. If you happen to’ve performed Crimson Useless Redemption 2, this may look like stating the plain, however there’s all the time the possibility Rockstar could contemplate one other prequel of some variety.
“I’m sure we’ll see Crimson Redemption 3 sooner or later,” Clark stated. “When that might be — I’ve completely no concept. Don’t rely on Arthur’s involvement both. His story has been instructed, I really feel.”
In a subsequent interview with IGN, Clark expanded on his ideas: “Yeah, that received actually picked up! I might have thought that was apparent although. Wouldn’t you? And it’s not like I’ve any insider data in any respect, however after all there’s going to be one other Crimson Useless. It bought over 60 million copies!”
He continued: “Strauss Zelnick, the CEO of Take-Two stated it himself. He stated GTA and Crimson Useless are outstanding franchises for Rockstar Video games and that they are going to be returning to them sooner or later. So there’s little doubt there might be one other Crimson Useless. But when Arthur Morgan might be concerned? I extremely doubt it, to be sincere. And I feel it’s going to be fairly a while earlier than we even see a snifter of something new Crimson Useless associated. I do not know how it might pan out, however I wouldn’t wager on Arthur being part of it.”
In April this yr, Hollywood star Jack Black revealed the character he’d love to play in Crimson Useless Redemption 3, ought to Rockstar make the sport: Jack Black. In lieu of a Crimson Useless Redemption film, which Black stated he’d very a lot love to star in if the chance ever got here his approach, the Bowser actor would love to star in Crimson Useless Redemption 3. And it turns on the market’s a personality referred to as Jack Black he’d love to play.
“Crimson Useless Redemption 2 takes place across the flip of the century, proper?” Black instructed Polygon whereas selling The Tremendous Mario Galaxy Film. “There was a personality round that point named Jack Black, who wrote an autobiography referred to as You Cannot Win.
