Rockstar has dropped a new trailer for the highly anticipated Red Dead Redemption 2 — and if this teaser is anything to go by, it doesn’t look like the Wild West sequel is pulling any punches. This second Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer introduces us to the series new protagonist, an outlaw called Arthur Morgan.

Part of the Van der Linde gang, Morgan and his motley true will rob, fight and steal as they try and find their place in a brutal and fast-changing America.

Morgan certainly doesn’t seem quite as relatable as the last game’s John Marsten, but will he find his own redemption on his journey across the Wild West? Well, it won’t be long until we find out, as Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One next spring.
