Rockstar Games’ open world action-adventure game, Red Dead Redemption 2, is set to receive a current-gen upgrade with native PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions.
In his late video, insider and content creator Nate the Hate stated that earlier rumors regarding Dead Redemption 2 getting a current-gen upgrade for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S are true., and that the game will also be making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year in 2025.
Nate mentioned that he was initially going to hold on to this information for a Nintendo Direct predictions episode on his YouTube channel, as he felt it would be a game that Nintendo would want to have as a headliner in a future Direct presentation. He believes that the announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Red Dead Redemption 2 will be accompanied by a press release that will share details on the PS5 and Xbox Series upgrades.
The insider appears to be pretty confident about the accuracy of his information. Based on what his sources told him, the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 versions of Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released a few months from now. He believes that a late Summer or early Fall window is likely.
Two years ago, Jeux Vidéo editor Chris Klippel had claimed that Rockstar Games was gearing up to announce a Red Dead Redemption 2 remaster at a subsequent State of Play, and that a trailer had also been prepared. None of this actually happened, however, but the rumor refused to go away.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is an action-adventure game released in 2018 on PS4, Xbox One, and later on PC. The game is a pequel to the 2010 game Red Dead Redemption and the third installment in the Red Dead series. It takes place in 1899 and follows bandit Arthur Morgan, a member of the Van der Linde gang, across a fictitious version of the Western, Midwestern, and Southern United States.
