Rockstar has already confirmed a PS5 and Series X/S version of GTAV. Will we get one for RDR2? Either a patch or a remaster?

Do y’all reckon we’ll get a new gen console patch for RDR2?
- Thread starter janusff
- Start date
Considering how they skipped Xbox One X and PS4 Pro enhancements for all their titles last gen and went the way of Paid Remaster for GTAV twice there's not much precedent for a free update that leverages the opportunities of PS5 and XSX/XSS
That being said I still think there'll be some sort of better console version of RDR2. It might just be on XSX/XSS when Microsoft adds the option to double frame-rate in a few months or maybe a full on new collection that has to be purchased anew like the rumours said.

They got GTA V's coming this year. Probably will wait on it for another year where they've got nothing. It'll be another near full priced product.
In fairness the first remaster of GTAV was exceptional and added a lot. I'm interested to see if the second is a similar jump.
They're gonna sell GTA V on a 3rd set of consoles sometime this year. I don't see Red Dead getting a patch.
Only if they actually plan on supporting RDO long term, and we have no evidence of that. GTAO is literally a golden goose, and they probably have everyone but a skeleton crew on that and their next game.
As much as I would love to play RDO at 60fps, they went above and beyond delivering ridiculously stable visuals and performance on the One X and pro, which is what next gen would be boosting from that they could very easily leave it as is and get away with it.

Whatever they end up doing, I hope they lift the inventory restrictions. The starting inventory size is way too small. There is one way to significantly increase it though (I'm talking multiplying it by close to 100), but it requires hours of hunting rare animals to craft all of the satchels. I ended up doing it but I wouldn't do it on a second playthrough. Interacting with the world and picking up loot became so much better when I could actually pick things up.
They will probably want to monetize it. I'm going to foolishly hope that means some kind of legendary edition that comes with a RDR remaster.
This is probably correct but it hurts reading it.
My PS4 died and I want to play it so I will be one of many buying the remaster.
Yeah there is zero reason to think rockstar would do a free upgrade. Especially given RDRO hasn't performed as well as GTAO. They are almost certainly working on a full next gen version of RDR2.
If my saves and achievements don't carry over, I'm not buying. I don't have time to start over.

Thats not the Rockstar way. I mean were getting GTA V again for current gen😑
I just hope they are working on a remaster for RDR1 and just bundle them together with RDR2. Wouldn't mind paying $70 for that.

They'll probably sell a remastered version and I'll certainly buy it, although not at full price.
From Rockstar:
2018: RDR2 PS4/XB1
2019: RDR2 PC
2020: nothing?
2021: GTAV Re-Remaster
2022/2023: RDR2 Remaster?
...
eventually GTA6
There's no way I see them making a free next-gen patch.

A free update to 60fps and I will play through the game again. Not doing that shit at 30fps anymore, gunfights were a painful process until I got used to it.
As long as RDR2 online is making them money on consoles they might do a PS5 update. All it requires of them really is upping some settings or leaving them as is and giving you 60 fps (which would be more desirable to be honest). PS4 Pro vs PS5 would be the biggest benefit for some visual setting improvements.
What I really want is RDR1 with RDR2 engine and visual quality. The map is there so it would be an obvious thing to sell as a new game or expensive DLC. But with Rockstar you can never know what happens as they usually instead take whatever greedy option they can use.
