Rumor: Gameloft developing ‘Bullet’ for iOS; inspired by Red Dead Redemption

Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption was a western themed 3rd person shooter that was released in early 2010 and it easily became one of the best games released that year. So it’s not surprising to hear a recent rumor Gameloft may be in the midst of developing a title that could possibly be inspired by Red Dead Redemption.

An eagle-eyed reader from Touch Arcade caught something interesting on Gameloft’s YouTube channel. Someone from Gameloft apparently uploaded two videos for one of their upcoming games, but forgot to set the video to private so it can be gloriously unveiled when the game is announced. The game looks to be called “Bullet” and judging by the brief images from the videos, it looks like Bullet may take some inspiration from Red Dead Redemption.

Seeing as how Gameloft has an ongoing track record taking extremely popular PC and console games and developing games for the mobile platform inspired by those games, a Red Dead Redemption clone for iOS would not surprise me one bit. Red Dead Redemption has sold over 8 million copies since its release in 2010, which means if this rumor turns out to be true, Gameloft could be rolling in the digital dough when Bullet is released.
