Red Dead Redemption series writer Michael Unsworth has joined Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser's Absurd Ventures studio as head of story and creative management.
Absurd Ventures was officially unveiled back in June, marking Houser's first high-profile video game project since departing Rockstar — following an «extended break» — in 2020.
Absurd describes itself as a studio focused on «building narrative worlds, creating characters, and writing stories for a diverse variety of genres» that span a variety of mediums — with the studio specifically calling out live-action, animation, video games and other interactive content, books, graphic novels, scripted podcasts, and more.
As spotted by BeGeek, Rockstar's former vice president of writing Michael Unsworth — who co-wrote both Red Dead Redemption games, and has contributed dialogue to the likes of LA Noire, GTA 4, and GTA 5 — joined Asburd in October, having departed from Rockstar this August after 16 years with the company.
Unsworth isn't the only Rockstar veteran to have joined Houser at Absurd Ventures, either; former writer and producer Lazlow Jones — who left the GTA maker in 2020 — has been with Absurd since June 2021, where he's serving as executive producer.
There's no word yet on what Absurd is working on, but the studio's website has a bunch of abstract nonsense to peruse and ponder while we await further details.

While the long-awaited reveal of Grand Theft Auto VI is the big Rockstar story of the week, some select comments from Arthur Morgan actor Roger Clarke have given us hope for a return to the world of Red Dead Redemption.
Roger Clark, the actor voicing and portraying Arthur Morgan in RDR2, believes that Red Dead Redemption 3 will happen eventually.
Red Dead Redemption 3 is an inevitability, says one of the game’s major voice actors, but don’t expect Arthur to be returning for it.
Arthur Morgan actor Roger Clark has said he’s “certain” that Rockstar will eventually make Red Dead Redemption 3, but that he may not be involved.
Right now, all eyes are on the recently-released Grand Theft Auto 6, and given the fact that the game isn’t even out until 2025, that’s going to continue to be the case for the foreseeable future. Rockstar does, however, have another major, blockbuster IP in its stable in the form of Red Dead Redemption 2, and the actor who played its protagonist is sure that we’ll see a third game in the Wild West franchise at some point in the future as well.
Amid the fuss over Grand Theft Auto 6, the actor who plays the star of Rockstar’s other massive game franchise has said he believes the developer will eventually get to making a sequel.

GTA 6 marks a "new vision" for developer Rockstar Games and the series at large.
The upcoming GTA 6 trailer will reportedly be approximately 91 seconds long, and although this is longer than other Rockstar reveal trailers, some players were hoping for more.
