It's a massive game that was absolutely a labor of love, but it's Rockstar we're talking about here. They turn love into microtx and milk it till it's dry. Then it's to the meat packing facilities for a little mobile/console porting so it's innards can be broken up to be resold 😂. No real fault to the devs, art team, and story team that absolutely did put love into the game though.

That's not what this award is. This is the "old game that continues to get lots of new content" award. RDR2 hasn't had new content since 2022.

This game has been out for a while. The team is well past the debut of their creative baby, but being the good parents they are, these devs continue to nurture and support their creation. This game, to this day, is still getting new content after all these years.
