Rockstar's wild west shootout joins 3 for a 2010 release, both slated for the first half of the new year.

Spring is for gun-slinging, as has confirmed for release in April 2010. Sequel to the stylish Revolver, the game follows reformed criminal John Marston in his work for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Read: you shoot a lot of things.

Rockstar has high hopes for the game, which it boldly claimed was ambitious as with an enormous world. The single player story is supposedly only the tip of the arrowhead of this western tale though, as planned has yet to be revealed.

Expect to hear more about Red Dead Redemption in the coming weeks, especially on December 1 when a new trailer is set for release.
