  3. Red Dead Redemption

There are already some great photoshops of the Red Dead Redemption art

Features
By Wes Fenlon published 17 October 2016

It's the circle of meme.

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

Rockstar sure knows how to stir up a crowd. The Grand Theft Auto developer tweeted a wordless red logo on Sunday to the tune of 100,000 retweets. And on Monday, a follow-up piece of art seemed to indicate what everyone was hoping:  a new Red Dead Redemption is likely on the way. In the one piece of art we have so far, seven characters stand silhouetted against a blood red sky and an orange sun. It's a striking image. Naturally, it's already been turned into a meme.

We've seen some great photoshops of the new teaser already. If you have the Red Dead fever like we do, enjoy our favorites so far.

The Lion King, by STGHMAAV

The color and composition of Rockstar's image is actually really similar to a classic shot of the The Lion King's Africa. More than one fan had this in mind, as you can see from the bonus embed below.

Harambe, by Daniel Stridh

Look, Harambe was inevitable. We knew it was coming. You knew it was coming. Let's all chuckle and move on.

Pokemon Sun & Moon, by NinjaKiller420

"New photo found going through the code of red dead redemption," writes NinjaKiller420. That Alola Exeggutor Pokemon will show up anywhere.

Dat Boi, by Stephan Krosecz

The desert doesn't seem like a good place for Dat Boi, but he's riding that unicycle into the desert anyhow.

Sunset Riders, by Trolasodemierda

A classic Capcom sidescroller set in the old west. It may not have had Red Dead Redemption's nuanced characters or open world, but you can't beat those sound effects.

Bonus: screaming sun in a crossover with The Lion King.

Bully, by Tyler Wilde

Hey, what a coincidence: the week Rockstar teases a new game is also the 10th birthday of Bully, one of its best. Happy birthday, Bully!

Firewatch, by Tom Phillips

There's no better match for Rockstar's sunset than this parody of former Campo Santo artist Olly Moss' gorgeous work on Firewatch. John Marston probably wouldn't get to do as much shooting as a firewatch, but his hands would look great. 

Page 13 of 18

Table Tennis, by TheSheikh

Hey, Rockstar's teaser could be an elaborate ploy to reveal a sequel to its 2006 ping pong sim. And there's good reason for them to bring it back now. The time is ripe for Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis... VR.

Page 14 of 18
Page 14 of 18

Mad Dog McCree, by Tyler Wilde

We gave Mad Dog McCree a 4% in the April 2003 edition of PC Gamer US, but with Rockstar behind its reboot, it should manage a score of at least 8%.

Page 15 of 18

Agent, by Officer.Sanchez

The presumed new Red Dead's characters have been scarecrowed into a sad reminder of the Rockstar game that got away. Rockstar's Sony-exclusive Cold War spy thriller Agent was announced in 2009. And then... nothing. Take Two is keeping the trademark alive, but it's hard to imagine we're ever going to see it.

Senior Editor

Wes has been covering games and hardware for more than 10 years, first at tech sites like The Wirecutter and Tested before joining the PC Gamer team in 2014. Wes plays a little bit of everything, but he'll always jump at the chance to cover emulation and Japanese games.


When he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike. With a focus on writing and editing features, he seeks out personal stories and in-depth histories from the corners of PC gaming and its niche communities. 50% pizza by volume (deep dish, to be specific).
