"We feel this franchise will add a greater diversity to our lineup while providing a fun, pick-up-and-play action game punctuated with Rockstar’s distinct sense of style and humor."

"More than anything we wanted to deliver an astounding game that is a fun, visually stunning, arcade-style shoot-em up experience," stated Diego Angel, President of Rockstar San Diego. "The technology and theme combined to give us the opportunity to create truly unique environments, colorful characters, and a storyline that captures an authentic Western feel unlike any other console game available."
