‘Red Dead Redemption 2' Galloping To Nintendo Switch 2 In 2025 With Rumoured Next-Gen Upgrade
Saddle up, Rockstar's open-world epic Red Dead Redemption 2 could be blazing a trail to the Nintendo Switch 2 by the end of 2025, with whispers of a shiny next-gen upgrade patch for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in tow.
According to GameReactor's sources 'close to Rockstar,' the Switch 2 port is in the works, alongside a long-awaited upgrade patch that's set to give Arthur Morgan's wild west adventures a fresh coat of polish on current-gen consoles. Universally acclaimed by critics worldwide, fans have been clamouring for a next-gen update ever since the game launched back in 2017.
The scoop lines up with previous claims from Nintenduo, which suggests the Switch 2 version will hit shelves before Take-Two's current financial year wraps on 31 March 2026. Still no word on whether this will be a digital-only affair or if collectors can look forward to a physical release.
If you're wondering why Rockstar is hitching its wagon to Switch 2, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick recently gushed about Nintendo's renewed support for third-party publishers. 'We're launching four titles with Nintendo Switch 2, and that's a bigger array than we've ever offered before with a new Nintendo platform,' he said, adding that optimism is high for the new console.
So, whether you're itching to replay Red Dead Redemption 2 on the go or just want to see those sunsets in even higher definition, keep your eyes peeled – 2026 could be the year of the cowboy.
Everything changed when his parents bought him a PlayStation 2 for Christmas. Since then, he's been hooked on all things esports, video games, and music. If he's not livestreaming his shenanigans, he's probably out taking mirror-selfies with his friends, vigorously debating over the Internet's Meme of the Year.
