GTA 4, Red Dead Redemption 2 Spark Remaster Rumors

Rockstar Games support page hints at potential upgrades.

Whispers are circulating once again about possible enhanced versions of Rockstar Games‘ iconic titles, GTA 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2, potentially arriving on current-generation consoles. Updated support pages briefly fueled speculation before being taken down.

GTA 4: A Possible Port for PlayStation?

Hints regarding GTA 4 surfaced directly on Rockstar‘s technical support pages, which initially listed PlayStation 4 alongside other supported platforms like PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. This sparked speculation about a port for the previous generation of consoles. Although the listing was quickly removed, fans speculate the port could be playable on PlayStation 5 through backward compatibility.

Red Dead Redemption 2: Next-Gen Upgrade in the Works?

For Red Dead Redemption 2, a peculiar “online migration” option appeared on the support page. This feature, similar to what was introduced with GTA 5 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles, would allow players to transfer their progress from older versions. This suggests Rockstar may be preparing a new version for current-gen consoles, possibly including the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. That support page tidbit has also disappeared, further fueling the rumor fire.

What’s Next for Rockstar’s Blockbusters?

With the gaming community eagerly awaiting the official word, the possibility of enhanced versions of GTA 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2 remains a hot topic. According to a recent study, demand for remastered games has increased by 30% in the last year (Statista 2024), indicating a potentially lucrative market for Rockstar to tap into.

As players clamor for improved performance and updated graphics, only time will tell if Rockstar Games will deliver these upgrades. However, the accidental reveals on their support pages have undoubtedly ignited excitement among fans.
