Whilst we’re all buzzing over the upcoming release of Red Dead Redemption 2, leaked footage of another rumoured open world RPG has got us all amped up yet again.

The footage comes courtesy of a Redditor named VapeThisBro – cool name dude – who says he secretly recorded the footage and nobody knows about it except a small contingent of people who were shown it. He also reckons he managed to exit the building before signing the NDA, which is why he’s been able to post it online.

Here’s a look at the trailer, along with a fairly detailed description below:

I mean that does sound and look decent does it and I doubt that anyone would go to such lengths just to prank people on the internet and get their hopes up with that video? Would they?

EDIT – looks like Warner Bros have blocked the video so there definitely is something going on. Sorry if you didn’t get to see it in time, but chances are it’ll be showing you some clips in about six months so you’ve got that to look forward to at least. You’ve gotta be quick.
