Rockstar Games has revealed the official release date for Red Dead Redemption 2 - and it's heading our way this autumn.

Release date and new screenshots
A spokesperson on the Rockstar Games website said "We are excited to announce that Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released on October 26th 2018. We apologize to everyone disappointed by this delay. While we had hoped to have the game out sooner, we require a little extra time for polish.
