5. The Protagonist Is An Entirely New (Possibly Customisable) Character

A possible first for a Rockstar game, but the opportunity to create your own cowboy to control through a Rockstar-caliber narrative would offer players an experience unlike any other.

This theory also stems from that promotional image of the seven gang members where the middle-most member is the only one that has proven to be indistinguishable for internet theorists. He looks unlike any previous character in either Revolver or Redemption, so if his central placement within the image is anything to go by, chances are high that he will be the game's main protagonist.

Add in the theory that this is Dutch Van Der Linde's original gang, and players will be able to witness its gradual downfall, alongside being one of the characters whose fate is already pre-determined. Redemption players know what happens to John, Dutch, and Bill, so having the player be someone never before seen, allows for some unpredictability with what will end up being their final fate.
