Rockstar Games may be preparing to announce an Enhanced version of its open world action-adventure game, Red Dead Redemption 2.
A new update to the SteamDB entry for Red Dead Redemption 2 suggests that Rockstar Games may be preparing to announce an enhanced version of its acclaimed open-world western. The discovery was first highlighted by Twitter/X user BeskInfinity, who noticed a significant revision to the game’s store description in Steam’s update history.
As per the SteamDB changelog seen above, the old description, which highlighted the game’s awards and mentioned access to Red Dead Online , has been replaced with a more detailed description. The new text places greater emphasis on Arthur Morgan’s moral struggle, the Van der Linde gang’s plight, and the thematic weight of “honor and loyalty at the dawn of the modern age.” Red Dead Online also receives a more fleshed-out description, highlighting its breadth of activities, such as running moonshine operations as well as battling lawmen and wildlife.
Rockstar Games has followed a consistent pattern of annual re-releases since 2021. From Grand Theft Auto V’s next-gen edition to Red Dead Redemption’s remastered console launch, the developer has continued the trend of re-releasing one title each year since then, leading up to the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI on May 26, 2026. However, 2025 has yet to see such a re-release. The recent change in the Steam storage page description suggests that Red Dead Redemption 2 Enhanced may be that re-release.
Back in July, 2025, Rockstar Games updated the support page menu for Red Dead Redemption 2 with a new issue involving online migration, which is usually there to facilitate the transition of player stats and progress when moving from a previous platform to its next gen successor. The new option indicated that the developer may be on the verge of announcing PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of its open world action-adventure game.
A month prior, known insider Nate the Hate also endorsed rumors regarding the open world action-adventure game getting a current-gen upgrade for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. He claimed that the game will also be making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2.
