Rumor: Retailer May Have Leaked Red Dead Redemption 2 Release Date

Rockstar has yet to announce the official release date for Red Dead Redemption 2, but a retailer in Denmark named CoolShop may have spilled the beans early.

As reported by Game Informer, CoolShop previously listed a release date for Red Dead Redemption 2 as June 8th, 2018. This is the same retailer that correctly leaked the release date for Grand Theft Auto V as well.

The release date details have since been removed so it’s possible the leak was true if Rockstar asked the retailer to pull the date down from their website.

June 8th seems like a feasible date since it comes out on a Friday which is usually the time video games get released in Europe. Not to mention June is a relatively quiet month for video game releases so Rockstar has this slot all by itself.
