Red Dead Redemption for PC is widely rumored, although there has been no official confirmation yet. However, recent updates to the Rockstar Games launcher and the addition of new folders suggest that the game’s release may be imminent. These folders hinted at a potential GTA V ray-tracing update for PC as well as a release of Red Dead Redemption 1. Although the folders were quickly removed, a user was able to save a screenshot showing their names.
Red Dead Redemption 1 was recently released for PS4 and Nintendo Switch, and it seems that a PC release might be on the horizon. In addition to being mentioned in the Rockstar Games launcher update, the game has also been spotted in the Steam backend. These reports suggest that the launch of Red Dead Redemption 1 for PC is imminent and an official announcement may be coming soon.
Rockstar Games has a history of releasing PC versions of their games or updates at a later date than consoles. This has been the case with their upcoming game, GTA VI, for which no PC release date has been announced. However, it is widely expected to launch a year or two after its release on PS5 and Xbox Series S|X.
Red Dead Redemption 1 is a cult classic that may not have achieved the same level of success as its successor, but it was quite successful in its own right. It was followed by a prequel story in Red Dead Redemption 2, which became one of the most ambitious games developed by Rockstar Games. There are rumors that GTA VI, expected to be released next year, maybe facing further delays.
