'Red Dead Redemption 2' Release Date, News & Update: Window Finally Confirmed By Take-Two; No Release For PC

The wait for "Red Dead Redemption 2" might not be as long as several speculations have come to show. Fans of the wild western open-world game from Take-Two could set their eyes on a particular release window disclosed by the publisher itself.

A recent report from PlayStation Universe indicates that the wait for "Red Dead Redemption 2" may not be all that long. Fans are potentially spared from the excruciating guesswork of when the game will be released. Based on the figures released at the recent earnings report, players are looking at an October 2017 to September 2018 release date window.

This has been confirmed by Take-Two Interactive as indicated in a recent post at BusinessWire. The news potentially slams any rumors regarding "Red Dead Redemption 2" and the delay to its release due to its absence from the Super Bowl event, where millions of fans from around the globe have expected it to be showcased. However, unlike Nintendo Switch, Take-Two and Rockstar Games dismissed the idea and kept mum about it.

In the Management Comments section of the report, Strauss Zelnick highlighted "Red Dead Redemption 2" as an essential part of making the 3rd quarter of 2017 fiscal year a success. The game is mentioned as a title, which is scheduled to be released in fall of 2017 along with 'NBA 2K18.'

"Looking ahead, our Company has a robust long-term development pipeline and is better positioned for success than at any time in its history. We expect to grow both bookings and net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2018, driven by our release slate led by Rockstar Games' highly anticipated launch of Red Dead Redemption 2." - Take-Two stated in the report.

There are high expectations for the upcoming release of "Red Dead Redemption 2" for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. However, there's still no mention of a PC release, which is quite disappointing of a news for those who have been waiting to get a slice of action even from the first title in the franchise.
