HIGHHorse Posted June 25 Posted June 25 NateTheHate has made claims that RDR2 is likely to be announced for the Nintendo Switch 2 in the coming weeks. He's gotten rumors right before so a lot of people bank on what he says. It would make sense that the Switch 2 gets the game since the OG Switch couldn't handle the game. 1
YellowDragon Posted June 26 Posted June 26 Yeah I think if do end up seeing a new RDR2 release, it will only be for the Switch and it makes sense. They couldn't get the game to run on the first one but this one should handle it fine. My guess is they have been working on it for the last few years.
Purple Cactus Posted June 27 Posted June 27 I read some rumors that it was intended to be a launch title for the Switch 2 but something happened. Not sure what but it was pushed back and it is being suggested that it will be out in October of this year with an announcement for it coming late July.
The Blackangel Posted June 29 Posted June 29 I can't bring myself to play RDR1 on Switch and definitely won't be able to play RDR2 on it either. It just feels like it would be lacking something that makes it the masterpiece that it truly is. 1

Like I know a lot of people are hyped about this being a strong possibility but this kind of game just doesn't feel suited for a Nintendo console. Like it almost feels wrong playing it on them. lol
Gh0stRyder Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I mean if they are going to do a port for the Switch 2, it would likely be released for the holiday season since it is a an adult game. I can' see them releasing it over summer. So maybe some time in October or November.
Anc1entC0re Posted July 17 Posted July 17 How soon is soon? I have not seen anything about it yet. I know there are rumors but if they planned on releasing it in the fall, I would imagine we would know by August right? 1
DaveSpeek Posted July 18 Posted July 18 I check every few days just in case I missed any update on this. I have not seen anything new yet either. I mean it is an older game, maybe they don't care to announce it months in advance and will just drop it on everyone a month out from the release.

At the time of posting this, RDR2 is seven years old. That said, I don't think those in charge of the possible release care about age. They released RDR1 on Switch, which (obviously) is much older. It originally launched on PS3/Xbox 360. It initially wasn't available on PC but demand got it a PC port. RDR1 was released May 18th 2010. So at the time of posting this, it just passed the 15 year old milestone. While one of the greatest games of all time, it's simply an obscene travesty that it was ported to Switch, as would be RDR2. At least that's my opinion. For me this falls in with my feelings towards online gaming. The mere thought literally makes me sick. If online is your thing, then by all means, hit it. I hope you have a blast. But for myself, I just can't stomach it.
