Retro Titles and Major Announcements
Rockstar Games has a history of using the release of retro titles on modern systems as a precursor to announcing their major titles. This pattern was observed when they announced Red Dead Redemption 2 shortly after releasing Red Dead Revolver on PS4 with new added trophies.
