Red Dead Redemption 2

There was never much hope that a game as technically and graphically intensive as Red Dead Redemption 2 would ever be able to run well enough on the aged hardware of the Nintendo Switch for Rockstar to even consider trying to make that happen, but the upcoming Switch 2 definitely is powerful enough- and sure enough, Rockstar’s title might be headed its way.

That’s as per a Gamereactor report, which cites anonymous sources familiar with Rockstar’s plans and claims that Red Dead Redemption 2 is in development for the Nintendo Switch 2. Additionally, the Wild West epic allegedly also has native PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions in the works. Exactly when these versions will be official announced or when they will release is unknown. The report does vaguely offer details on the supposed enhancements, claiming the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions will tout graphics and performance improvements.

A recent leak claimed that Rockstar Games has also had a current-gen version of Grand Theft Auto 4 in the works, along with plans of a Max Payne 3 remaster to go along with Max Payne 1 and 2 Remake, which is in development at Remedy Entertainment.

Meanwhile, Grand Theft Auto 6 is, of course, due out on May 26 next year for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
