10 Potential Plot Twists That Could Ruin Upcoming Video Games

5. It's Really A Prequel - Red Dead Redemption 2

The Twist: Rather than revolve around John Marston's grown son Jack, Rockstar's long-awaited sequel will go further back in time and follow John's adventures as a younger man.

Why It Could Ruin The Game: Though a Red Read Redemption prequel would surely be a good game regardless, it's simply not what fans really want to see. The previous game ended on such a brutal note that fans are invested in seeing how Jack's story pans out from here without his parents, and any other creative direction will be unavoidably underwhelming.

How Likely Is It?: Honestly, this could go either way, because Rockstar may not want to go for the most "obvious" sequel route, even though it's totally what they should do. 4/10
