From trailer number three we've learnt that John is in the game, although how major a player he's going to be we're yet to see.Dutch is
backThe main antagonist from Red Dead Redemption showed his face in this game's second trailer which confirms he'll be back
Whether or not he'll be the same antagonistic force is unclear but we think it's highly unlikely he's going to be a force for good.There's
