Red Dead Redemption PC launch finally on the way

Last year, Rockstar re-released Red Dead Redemption and its companion game, Undead Nightmare, for modern consoles, including PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately for the PC crowd, we were once again left off the list of supported platforms. However, there has been a growing number of signs that a PC launch is planned and recent updates hint at an imminent launch.

Red Dead Redemption has been a console exclusive ever since the game first launched. There have been numerous rumours about a PC version over the past decade but so far, none of them have come to fruition. However, earlier this summer, Rockstar super sleuth, Tez2, did discover new code in Rockstar's launcher with text specifically referencing a PC version of the game.

Now, the Red Dead Redemption PlayStation Store page has been updated, adding text that says “now on PC for the first time ever”. It isn't uncommon to see leaks via console store listings, like the PlayStation Store, but it is rare to see a PC release leaked via a console platform.

Gamescom is coming up in just one week's time, at which point Geoff Keighley will be hosting Opening Night Live. We are expecting news on Monster Hunter Wilds, Marvel Rivals and the reveal of several unannounced games during the event. With recent updates, it would seem that Red Dead Redemption for PC might be on the cards too. Gamescom would make a sensible venue for such an announcement too, as the event tends to have more participation from PC game publishers and peripheral companies, compared to alternatives like E3.
