The player community is actively discussing the possible release updated version of the game Red Dead Redemption 2 for current-generation consoles, including the PlayStation 5. The project was released in 2018, and the hardware capabilities of modern platforms significantly outperform those of that time. Users expect graphical improvements and the use of new computing power, but the main question is what pricing strategy Rockstar Games will choose for this remaster and how extensive the changes will be.
The discussion began with a discussion of in-game character models, particularly John Marston, who, in the later stages of the game, visually resembles Arthur Morgan too much. Players were divided on the cost of a potential update. Some believe the developers will make minimal changes but charge full price for the game. Others believe the project doesn’t require extensive reworking and only requires targeted texture improvements. Another opinion suggests that a paid $10 upgrade for owners of the original copy, similar to the one offered for Grand Theft Auto V, would be the best option.
Possibility of an update announcement soon Red Dead Redemption 2 is rated as low. Currently, the absolute priority for Rockstar Games is the development of Grand Theft Auto VI. Supporting the new game’s multiplayer mode is expected to require significant time and financial resources. Therefore, the release of updated versions of past projects or new games set in the Wild West may be delayed for an extended period.
