Summary
ARed Dead Redemption 2player online has pulled off an accidental “Force Push” kill during combat, which looks like something pulled directly fromStar Wars. TheRed Dead Redemption 2clip looks like a small bug, but is hilarious nonetheless.
A game on the scale ofRed Dead Redemption 2is bound to have tons of bugs slip through the net, even after years of patches from Rockstar. The main thing is that most of the annoying and game-breaking issues have all been patched out, even if many funny bugs remain. A while back, one weirdRed Dead Redemption 2glitch turned an enemy’s body into a huge pile of guns, which was an interesting sight, to say the least. It’s possible that some of these bugs are left in on purpose, as they can make for some unique and comical moments that players will remember long after they’ve left the game behind.
A Redditor online shared a clip of what they described as a “Force Push,” showingRed Dead Redemption 2’s Arthurpushing an enemy away as they get too close. In the killcam, it doesn’t look as if Arthur even touches the enemy, making it look like the famousStar WarsForce move. It seems to be a glitch where the enemy is just close enough to trigger the melee attack, but far away enough to look like they’re doing it with their mind.
One player joked that “This is 1% of Arthur’s power if he had more goddamn faith,” while another had a theory about what could be causing the issue. It seems that throughoutRed Dead Redemption 2’s story, there are certain NPCs who are “hardcoded to have cinematic shots when ANY damage is done to them.” The same goes for another NPC in Bronte’s house at another point in the story, which can then result in some particularly hilarious killcams.
With Rockstar’s focus remaining on thedevelopment ofGrand Theft Auto 6, it’s difficult to imagineRed Dead Redemption 3arriving any time soon. The studio has typically focused on quality over quantity with its titles, and doesn’t shy away from large gaps between games if that’s what is necessary to get it right. Right now,GTA 6is still locked in for a 2025 release, meaning a newRed Dead Redemptiongame is unlikely until 2030 at the very least, taking Rockstar’s current development times into account.
