After the release, It will take time to hit $2bil, that is 30mil to 40mil units and that could be like a year and a half. Online gaming will speed up the process to a year. Expect layoffs to happen.

Can you imagine what'll happen if the online doesn't stick and people don't double dip on 10th generation. Even before that it's likely 10th gen will have back compat. This could go so side ways but if I were a betting man, I'd say they have nothing to worry about and yeah, 2000 people worked on RDR2. They didn't get laid off even though dev on RDR2 online closed down, they went straight to dev on this. I'd say they're safe enough as they'll either be needed to keep the new online going as a GaaS or go straight into a new Red dead or maybe both. We are talking Rockstar here, they could release a bomb and they'll still be safe on making their money back. GTA 5 made over a billion in three days. RDR2 made 800 million in 3 days and it's not even GTA. The only thing that could really screw them is if the online doesn't stick and to a lesser degree if people ron't double dip on new gen hardware like they did with GTA 5(I bought 3 copies, I know people who've done the same, everyone seems to have done it) they'll be safe in all other eventualities.
