Would you like to have a chance to walk through some of gaming’s most memorable events? Well, now you can.
Rockstar North has dug deep into their secret stash and is showing off some cool, new items at the National Museum of Scotland, located in Edinburgh.
Just a stone’s throw away from the office of the legendary video game developers who made Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead, Rockstar has lent never-before-seen concept art, exclusive items, and other important memorabilia for the Red Dead franchise.
As initially reported by VGC, the Game On exhibit will run from June 29 until November 3 with a dedicated section to the Scotland-based studio.
The highlights of the separate Red Dead display are playing cards, a replica of the in-game catalog, and an overlooking photo puzzle of Saint-Denis, one of the central hubs featured in Red Dead Online and Red Dead Redemption 2.
Rockstar is also displaying several exclusive Grand Theft Auto items as part of the exhibit, which includes a detailed timeline of its games, stopping at Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition.
Surprisingly, the Red Dead Redemption re-release on PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch from last year isn’t included.
The Red Dead franchise has been going through some tough times lately. Despite strong sales numbers, Rockstar has gone all-in on GTA, putting Red Dead Online to pasture, much to the disappointment of fans.
However, updates about Red Dead are starting to get more frequent, perhaps because the bulk of the development on Grand Theft Auto 6 is coming to an end soon.
Most recently, Epic Games was spotted leaking a PC port of Red Dead Redemption. The game was originally released in 2010 and is a frequent port request from PC gamers who loved Red Dead Redemption 2. Both Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Revolver remain absent on the popular “master race” platform.
Between the monthly updates, bonuses, and maybe even a re-release of the first two Red Dead titles on the horizon, the sun may rise yet again for the Red Dead franchise.
In the meantime, those who’d like to show their appreciation for video game history in person can go to the Game On exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland and pay their respects to two of the most influential video game franchises of all time.
