As far as I know Red Dead 3 wasn't shown because of the Orlando massacre.
The original plan from Sony was to close the show with the Red Dead 3 announcement and a trailer but it was a last minute change. They didn't want to show a trailer for a game like Red Dead 3 after the Orlando massacre. They just replaced Red Dead 3 announcement with Days Gone gameplay. This also explains why the conference was a bit shorter than all the other Sony conferences from the last few years.

Sorry but this sounds like total BS, how is a western game in any way related to a 21 century massacre? who said this rumor?

That's a really cool rumor in that it filled the vacuum of Rockstar news. Thank you. At least it gives me a way to explain this. That info was most appreciated Dr. Vita!

As Dr. Vita noted, the rumor goes that the trailer explicitly shows some robber-types walking into a saloon and shooting a bunch of innocent people. Sounds familiar, sadly.

 

When you look at how genuine the opening monologue was about Orlando, and how he messed up his words and was clearly moved, it's not hard to see Sony vetoing and stepping back from Red Dead Revengeance for a while. 



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

Pretty sure they said they were skipping E3 as did some other companies.

More importantly, where is Knack 2?!

Im really curious:why was Red Dead 3 delayed because of the massacre?As far as I know, the theme of the game is not insulting to any way to the gay community.

 

Edit:Nevermind, you already answered in another post



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Rockstar doesnt always go to e3. Gearbox just released Battleborn. Irrational Games closed. We already have X-Com 2 for consoles and Civ VI announced. I think they were aiming to do their announcements before e3 started

 I was missinformed that they were attending this year. Since they don't always go I expected the floor to shake. Here is a funny reddit on the issue https://www.reddit.com/r/rockstar/comments/4ob175/rockstar_games_never_planned_to_be_at_e3_2016/
