RTX 2015: A recap of entertainment news from the convention

The fifth year of Rooster Teeth’s annual convention for their fans, RTX, wrapped up today, and with it came news of various developments in the world of video game related entertainment.

Lazer Team

Rooster Teeth’s first feature film about aliens granting humanity a suit of advanced power armor that makes its way into the hands of four idiots has been given a release window. At the Foundering Fathers panel, Matt Hullum stated that the movie will come out “soon”, likely around winter.

Red Vs. Blue Season 14

The next season of Red Vs. Blue will be slightly different from previous seasons. It has been stated that season 14 will be written by various writers (including guest writers) and will comprise of short stories that take place at any time in the universe of Red Vs. Blue. While the list of characters is still being worked on, new and old characters will make an appearance.

Will Vic make an appearance in Season 14? According to Burnie Burns, probably not.

This new format is a departure from the previous seasons that rewarded long time viewers with a long running plot, but this is merely an experimental run, and thus the short stories will only be part of Season 14 for now.

The Eleven Little Roosters

Set as a sequel to Ten Little Roosters, The Eleven Little Roosters will feature Ryan Haywood as he is enlisted to help settle a case of international espionage. It is described as a spy thriller where Ryan has to root out a mole from a league of assassins and spies, with more interactive elements than its predecessor.

The Eleven Little Roosters will feature classic spy agencies such as the CIA.

It is slated to come out some time in 2016.

The Eleven Little Roosters will also feature original spy agencies, such as “whatever Australia has”.

Live action 

Social Disorder will return with a second season, featuring the antics of Aaron Marquis and Chris Demarais as they pull off various pranks on members of the public, as the name implies.

Animation

Strangerhood will have it’s Season 2 premier during X-Ray & Vav’s midseason break at the end of the summer.
