Red Dead Redemption is considered one of the best story-based games on seventh-generation consoles. The game came out like a fresh breath of air and literally changed people’s perspectives about what Rockstar Games was all about as a developer. The weird thing is that such an excellent title is stuck on those consoles to this day.

But recently, conversations started about a remaster or remake of this game releasing sometime in 2023. These are, as usual, some small leaks that can be anything. But a couple of recent developments have given some weight to these rumors.

Rockstar Games simply hates letting people in on their plans before they are ready. This has been evident from the numerous game reveals they have done for years. They have a track record of not even commenting on rumors and leaks and then simply announcing a new title out of nowhere. This is a good thing too; it keeps that element of surprise alive.

They are doing something very similar with their upcoming title, GTA VI. This game has been all but announced. Red Dead Redemption Remaster or Remake too appears to be hidden in a similar manner. The details of the nature of this title are not particularly clear, but one thing is clear, Rockstar is cooking something.

I that was not enough, very recently they went ahead and codenamed the title RDR1RSP on that website. It’s pretty obvious that RDR1 stands for Red Dead Redemption 1, but fans have their own presumptions about RSP. Some say it’s a remaster, others say it’s a remake. For the remaining SP, everyone has only one guess: it is Singleplayer.

Rockstar will probably exclude the online part of the original game from this re-release. There are even some leaks suggesting that this new release is coming to the Nintendo Switch too. Now here’s hoping this release fairs better than that of the GTA Remastered trilogy.
