Fourteen years after its original release on consoles, Red Dead Redemption looks to finally be coming to PC.
The game, which takes place after Red Dead Redemption 2, follows protagonist John Marston as he tracks down members of his former gang and its leader, Dutch van der Linde.
While it was a smash-hit for Rockstar, it never came out on PC. However, information extracted by a dataminer suggests that is set to change in the near future.
Posting to X, @Tez2, a dataminer who focusses on Rockstar titles, shared information he found inside Rockstar’s launcher site files.
The promotional material reads: “Journey across the sprawling expanses of the American West and Mexico in Red Dead Redemption, and its zombie-horror companion, Undead Nightmare, now playable on PC.”
Tez2 explained that the “marketing strings” were added on 13 May.
As of writing, nothing has been officially confirmed by Rockstar. However, 18 May marks 14-years since Red Dead Redemption‘s release, so an announcement could be imminent.
While it looks like something is in the works, it seems unlikely that this will be a remaster or a remake of Red Dead Redemption. If such a thing were to happen, it would undoubtedly be released for PS5 and Xbox, too.
Instead, it seems much more likely that this is simply a PC port of the original game.
