[BLOG] Red Dead Map Mod For GTA Cancelled

Red Dead Redemption is one of those games that people waited ages for its sequel. Red Dead Redemption 2 will be out this autumn and most fans are willing to wait. A couple though decided to recreate the fun of the original game with a custom map in Rockstar's other popular game GTA V. Only it seems someone at Rockstar or Take Two didn't like that, as the team behind it have been ordered to stop production of the mod immediately shortly after the project was shown off.



Shown off on the GTA forum, team .White showed off two screenshots and said that their aim was to recreate the game's map with some additional content which they didn't elaborate upon. They had aimed to get up a teaser trailer soon, and had set a beta release sometime during the summer.

However, as of yesterday one of the .White team Mr. Leisurewear announced that the map mod was dead officially following communication from someone at either Take Two or Rockstar directly with the team and basically telling them to stop their efforts immediately. Reasons for this aren't 100% clear, as other map recreations such as Liberty City were allowed to progress, but some think that they just don't want attention taken away from the upcoming sequel's release later this year. Which is understandable.



It just sucks for the people who've wanted a PC version of Red Dead to play, which currently can only be done via Sony's Playstation Now service.
Yes that's Minecraft-me in my av. Done by Reiu who is damn talented!
