A leaker has claimed that versions of Red Dead Redemption 2 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2 “exist,” but offered no timing for when they might arrive. The comment came from NateTheHate2 in response to a post on X, where he wrote Yes, they exist. and added that he had no update on a release date, leaving the timeline unclear.
Yes, they exist. I have no update on timing for release.

Rumors of a remaster or next‑gen ports for Red Dead Redemption 2 have been circulating for some time, as many expected the game to follow the path that GTA 5 took when it moved from last‑gen consoles to newer hardware. The idea that Rockstar’s cowboy epic would be updated for PS5 and Xbox Series has been a persistent topic among fans. Earlier this year, reports said the game was also planned for Nintendo Switch 2 as part of Take‑Two’s wider support for Nintendo’s new hardware. Neither that report nor the recent claim includes a release window.
Red Dead Redemption 2 was initially released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in October 2018 and reached PC in November 2019. Former Rockstar boss Dan Houser recently described Red Dead Redemption 2 as the best game he worked on at the studio, remarks published in a separate piece on the topic. If these ports are in development, players on current‑generation consoles and Nintendo’s next system would benefit from easier access to Rockstar’s story and online modes.
