Rockstar Games has announced that a new Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer will be released on May 2 at 4.00pm GMT.

There's no word yet what we can expect from the new footage, although hopefully it'll feature copious amounts of actual gameplay footage as opposed to any CGI rubbish. Sadly that's about all there is to know right now, although Rockstar has at least dropped off a nice bit of Red Dead 2 artwork to gawk at below.

Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 26. Not much is known about the game yet, although it's believed to be a prequel seeing as how it focuses on the exploits of the Dutch van der Linde gang of outlaws, specifically Arthur Morgan.

If you're wondering what all the hullabaloo is about Red Dead 2, then it's probably time you finally got your cowboy kicks by checking out the original Red Dead Redemption
