Red Dead Redemption Delayed

None

The Western we’ve all been waiting for is going to make us wait a bit longer.

Rockstar Games announced today that Red Dead Redemption will not drop in April as initially planned. Instead, the open-world Wild West adventure will not hit store shelves until May 18, 2010.

According to chairman Strauss Zelnick, as reported by IGN during the company conference call, Take-Two Interactive feels that the game will sell better if delayed:

“We think it’s a better release window and it gives us a few more weeks to market [Red Dead Redemption]. We think that’s the right window for it, right before there are some other competitive titles in the marketplace.”
