Having explored the harsh American west in the past, Red Dead Redemption 3 should look to a new stretch of land for its next story.
With recent rumors suggesting that Red Dead Redemption 3 has begun development, many fans of the franchise have been speculating where a new game could possibly take place. Rockstar’s interpretation of the American Wild West is one of the most vibrant worlds to have been brought to life in a video game, but exploring a new country might be the best option for the franchise’s next chapter. Mexico has played a major role in Red Dead Redemption, and with the area also being featured on Red Dead Redemption 2’s map, it only makes sense for the next game to venture south of the United States border.
After a reputable leaker recently claimed Red Dead Redemption 3 is in the works, many gamers have been excited about the prospect of another incredible journey through untamed landscapes and fighting for survival. Red Dead Redemption 2 was praised for its immersive world with realistic terrain, but there was one puzzling aspect of the game’s map. Mexico’s region of Nuevo Paraiso was featured on the map, but it’s unreachable without an in-game exploit. Although it’s explained in the story that tensions between Mexico and America were at an all-time high during the events of Red Dead Redemption 2, it’s strange that the area was featured on the map, and this has caused some speculation from fans that Mexico was originally planned to be part of the story but was scrapped during development.
