The image actually belongs to an upcoming MMO experience called Wild West Online.
The studio behind Wild West Online will launch a $250,000 Kickstarter this month. The creators are now working on a core version of the game, which is said to be presented later this year. PC gamers won’t be able to taste RDR2, but they will have a chance to play something similar.
The funniest thing is that the team the newly formed 612 Games consists of PC gamers tired of waiting for a proper Red Dead Redemption on PC.
Wild West Online is said to be more than just a PC version of Red Dead Redemption’s multiplayer. Players will get a chance to specialize as gatherers, prospectors who mine for gold or farmers, who will contribute to the game’s player-driven economy. Wild West Online will also feature a crafting system that relies on finding and learning recipes as well.
What is more, the game might not feature a progression or skill system. “It’s something that we’re still kicking around,” Stephan Bugaj said. “There’s going to be story, character, and gameplay-driven motives to keep playing, but we haven’t yet fully worked out what the progression system is going to be for that.”
So, PC fans might get a chance to play something similar to Rockstar’s masterpiece, something really beautiful. You can find more details on the upcoming experience here.
