We’re less than a month away from the release of Red Dead Redemption 2. From the new gameplay trailer, this may be the most interactive open world game yet.

Fans have been clamoring for a sequel to the highly successful, both critically and commercially, Red Dead Redemption. It took Rockstar Games more than eight years to finally release it, but now, we’re less than a month away from Red Dead Redemption 2’s release. Every piece of in-game screenshots and gameplay footage is simply breathtaking. In fact, it looks better and better the more we see, which is exciting. The newest set of gameplay is probably the best we’ve seen yet.

In the new trailer, we see a variety of new things to do, but they all revolve around the outlaw life. Of course, it’s up to the player as to what kind of person they want to be. However, you can either be the good guy or the bad guy. The best part is there are certain consequences to your actions. So, the story may take twists and turns depending on the decisions you make.

Before we dig a little further as to what we’ll be able to do exactly, check out the new trailer below:

Playing as Arthur Morgan, you’ll be able to engage in a number of activities. For example, you can rob trains, avoid the law, run into different rival gangs and outlaws, and so on. There are even simpler things to do, such as have a drink in the bar, play card games, go fishing, or explore the world with your horse. We have a feeling we’ll be playing this game for hours upon hours since there will be plenty to do.

As for story elements, the game is a prequel. We aren’t sure how it’ll lead up to the events of the first game, but here’s hoping we get a bit of details on who John Marston used to be.
