Rockstar apologized for the delay, explaining that Red Dead Redemption 2 still needs some fine-tuning before it’s ready. “We apologize to everyone disappointed by this delay,” said Rockstar Games. “While we had hoped to have the game out sooner, we require a little extra time for polish.” The developers go on to mention that they will be “sharing a lot more information” in the weeks to come.

Unfortunately, no new trailer or gameplay footage was released alongside the announcement. However, Rockstar offered up a handful of gorgeous new screenshots for fans to enjoy, which can be found on today’s blog post from Rockstar.
