Maybe the biggest news in all of video games right now is the Grand Theft Auto VI leak, which saw 90 gameplay test videos get leaked and posted online.

In the game’s main story, Sadie Adler is rescued in the game’s first mission when the O’Driscoll gang kills her husband. She doesn’t take a larger role in the game until later in chapter four and much more in chapter six. In the final chapter, Sadie and Arthur help break John out of prison.

One of Grand Theft Auto’s two main protagonists will be a woman named Lucia, so a female-led Red Dead game isn’t far-fetched at all. It will be interesting to see if Rockstar is actually willing to go with a full-fledged female-led video game or if they make…
