A Red Dead Redemption Re-Release Is Looking Even More Likely - eviltoast

Update: As pointed out by Twitter user @videotechx, Rockstar actually spoke to releasing two “new iterations of previously-released titles” that are strictly ports or remastered titles (and not sequels) in Rockstar’s FY 2024, which is any time between March 2023 and March 2024.

    Wonder if it will be like the GTA remaster. Given how shady Rockstar has become, I don’t see myself buying their games in the future.

      Fair, but I guess RDR1 is currently locked to 7th Gen consoles. Would be nice to have native PC ports

        Also fair and I hope that happens.

        …but I think they’ll just add Ray Tracing to RDR2 and call it a “remaster”.

      I’m willing to bet more companies are going to do this kind of thing just to get some money coming in during longer dev cycles. Everyone memes Skyrim Special Super Edition Release but the reality is Skyrim has helped keep that studio in the black for a decade.

      Rockstar is in the same boat with GTA and RDR. Do they even have any other games anymore?

      Man I almost forgot about that. These games were just terribly executed. No idea who looked at this and thought it was fine.

    Kinda have mixed feelings about this, on one hand I would very much like to play this since I didn’t had the opportunity back then but on the other hand I am not very happy about Take Two’s actions as a publisher which is why I have been skipping games by them.
