Red Dead Redemption 2: 9 Leaked Details You're Not Supposed To Know

3. Rockstar Are Learning From... Ubisoft?!

The leaked map's Legend in the top left uncovered a few spots on the map that could allude to gameplay features. Most poignantly, 'caravan camps' and 'enemy outposts', which are very much an Ubisoft design trait.

Indeed, Red Dead Redemption did have a few spots on the map you could clear out, but it was nowhere near the "Here they are, go get 'em!" framework of say, Far Cry, The Division or Watch Dogs.

To be honest, as Mafia 3 proves, dotting your map with small, enemy-infested areas to take over is just plain fun, it looks like we'll be getting more excuses to indulge in gunfights more often - which considering Red Dead's combat was so much fun, is an excellent idea.
