Many players feel that playing video games during lockdowns improves their mental health. According to a poll of gamers in Europe, 16% of them shared this opinion, with multiplayer genre players expressing their opinions in particularly favorable terms. Many players consider stories a factor in rating the gaming experience because they can immerse themselves in the game and its characters. Also, the visual and audio mechanics are essential to that experience, even though many contend that video games excel when bringing people together in virtually connected multiplayer environments. While narrative-driven games have a cultural impact that leaves a lasting imprint on their players, competitive games like Fortnite are trends that come and go yearly.

Play Station Plus, PlayStation’s online gaming service recently went through a massive revamp, introducing three tiers, called basic, extra, and premium. While all tiers have their own perks and prices, most people have been opting for PS Plus extra, and for good reason. Why? Because it has a massive catalog of games and offers tremendous value for money. With renowned games like Red Dead Redemption, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Spider-Man available on PS Plus Extra’s library, you can expect plenty of more people to subscribe to the service.
That said, many subscribers of the service were under the impression that they could access the game library whenever they pleased. However, that is not the case. Instead, PS Plus’ game catalog is quite similar to Netflix. Most games on there will be there for a limited period and then eventually be replaced by other games. While most people do not have a problem with that, it is a deal breaker for some people, especially new subscribers.

After a year on the market as a console game, Rockstar’s popular Red Dead Redemption 2 is finally coming to PCs on November 5th, 2019.
PC gamers boast about the power of their rigs, but those beasts have been unable to get their hands on Red Dead Redemption 2, which had been available exclusively on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The game takes place before the events of 2010’s Red Dead Redemption and sees players taking on the role of Arthur Morgan, a key member of the Van der Linde crime gang.
Red Dead Redemption 2 was met by critical acclaim from reviewers and players alike. The game is absolutely gorgeous, and those with powerful enough PCs will be able to run the game at high frame rates and in full 4K resolution. The game also features a compelling story and details that’ll make your head spin. Rockstar went as far as to make the horses have testicles, and the balls of the horses grow and shrink depending on the temperature of the weather in the game.

A brand new Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer has dropped and it showcases more gameplay elements. We finally get to see what it'll be like to actually play the game.
The trailer begins by different criminal activities the player can take part in. This includes large bank heists, train robberies, or store hold ups.
The trailer also showcases rival gangs and outlaws. Players will need to keep their wits about them as they explore the world as there will always be danger around the corner.
The trailer also showcases what it will be like to constantly be on the run from bounty hunters and the law.
As teased from the last trailer, we got to see a further look at the new deadeye system. It will now have multiple stages. You can slow time, paint multiple targets at once, or see critical areas on a particular enemy.
Besides typical criminal activities like explained above, Red Dead Redemption 2 will also offer a number of less dangerous activities.

In anticipation for the Red Dead Redemption 2 release, Rockstar Games has just announced a large line of Red Dead merchandise.
All of the new merch can be purchased directly from the Rockstar Warehouse on Rockstar's website.
All of the merchandise has been pinned under a new section called the Outlaw Essentials collection.
There are multiple dozen different items that are themed around outlaws and Red Dead in general. Alongside your standard t-shirts, you'll also find logo stickers, puzzles, phone cases, a bottle opener, a shot glass, and even a Zippo lighter.
It should be noted that all of the new merch has been launched already. None of the merchandise will be shipped with copies of Red Dead Redemption 2 but there are a number of limited versions of the game that do come with some sweet exclusive physical

It seemed as if it was inevitable. After the huge amount of attention the idea for a Red Dead Redemption sequel got, Rockstar has finally gone and released a new trailer for their next game, Red Dead Redemption 2.
Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released in Fall 2017, so long as there aren't any delays that may push it back. Rockstar are known to delay their games in cases where everything isn't quite perfect, so Fall 2017 is for now, best seen as an estimation for the release date of the game.
We really don't know anything about Red Dead Redemption 2 yet, besides the fact that it looks beautiful. Unsurprisingly the trailer has showcased an unprecedented level of Rockstar style detail on the wildlife and scenery.
The trailer also showcases a group of seven characters riding horses near the end, which perfectly matches the number shown on the original teaser poster. Whilst this is speculation on our part, it sounds like the seven characters may be at the forefront of the

Obviously the latest game for Rockstar, Grand Theft Auto 5, is still getting love and attention from the development team. With that being said, Rockstar do have plans for the future and if a new rumor is to be true, the next future plan for Rockstar could be Red Dead Redemption 2.
A second Red Dead Redemption has been wanted by fans for a long, long time now and despite Rockstar's reluctance to confirm it, we really doubt Rockstar wouldn't develop a sequel to the original game. We believe a Red Dead Redemption 2 could sell just as well as a new Grand Theft Auto Game.
Okay, maybe not that well, but RDR 2 would definitely be insanely popular. So what's with this new rumor? A Rockstar employee has made his way onto Reddit to mention that Rockstar is working on a sequel to the original Red Dead Redemption.
Well, the Rockstar employee didn't directly announce a Red Dead Redemption 2, but a cryptic comment seemed to suggest it. In the comment, the Rockstar employee replied

Hurrah! Rockstar Games have finally opened up their doors to reveal their plans for their next upcoming game, and it will be Red Dead Redemption 2. We have been expecting a sequel for Red Dead for a while now, but Rockstar have been pretty quiet about it.
However, recent rumors suggest that Rockstar Games are working hard to release Red Dead Redemption 2. The game will be available for the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One, and it will take the best elements from the original game and bring it into a new story.
Whilst Rockstar have not responded to the recent rumors, an insider has suggested that the new Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released at some point in 2015, and it will take a focus on co-op play.
Whilst the original Red Dead Redemption did have some multiplayer elements, this was solely a different experience to the main game, so it will be interesting to see where the co-operative parts of Red Dead Redemption 2 will come in.
Whether Rockstar will make it
