Are Rockstar Set To Unveil A Major Red Dead Announcement Today?

That red and black re-colour can't be for nothing.

Could the answer to this year's hottest gaming rumour finally be coming our way? For the internet's sake, I really do hope so.

A little under an hour ago, Rockstar Games' social media accounts erupted into a sea of red and black, the colours of a little old gaming franchise called - you guessed it - Red Dead. Hot damn.

Whilst this still doesn't confirm anything concrete might be dropping today necessarily, it does show that some Red Dead-themed antics are definitely coming to consoles sooner, rather than later. I mean come on, that red and black aesthetic is as unmistakably Red Dead as a denim-clad bounty hunter dragging a hog-tied victim through Gaptooth Ridge for Pete's sake.

Of course, the franchise has sort of eluded the spotlight for sometime now, rubbishing rumours and claims that it would be showing at E3 first, and then, to cap off the disappointment that was PlayStation Meeting, at Sony's fledgling event too.

Regardless, it'd be very wise to keep tabs on Rockstar's social media feeds for the next few days, as news of a new Read Dead is bound to be forthcoming in the wake of this cryptic and, it must be said, tantalising change of online decor.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
