Alright, here’s the deal. Everyone seems to adore this game about a crew of outlaws just spiraling into depression while they dash around a gigantic map. And now, apparently, it’s making its way to Nintendo Switch 2. Kind of wild, right?
Gamereactor drops this nugget, claiming it’s got some whispers directly from Rockstar. Supposedly, the game could pop up on Nintendo’s latest gadget “as soon as later this year.” They even mention that a Spanish outlet, Nintendúo, nods in agreement with its own sources.
Oh, and here’s a bit you might wanna know: Gamereactor also spills the beans about a shiny new update for RDR2. They’re talking about souping it up for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S — basically making it glow and groove better. The timeline? Could coincide with the Switch 2 drop. Could be sooner. Who knows.
Now, get this: Big names like Borderlands 4, Civilization 7, NBA 2K, and WWE 2K are already on the roster for Switch 2. Tossing a Rockstar gem into this sort of lineup makes a nice little fifth wheel. Strauss Zelnick, the big cheese at Take-Two, chats with The Game Business about these titles arriving for launch. He’s hopeful but also a bit on the fence, saying it’s all kind of one big wait-and-see game.
Zelnick reckons Nintendo’s better with its own stuff, but it’s aiming to shake things up a bit. He’s like, “Yeah, we showed up because we believe in this.” Okay, maybe not those exact words, but that’s the gist.
If RDR2 does hit Switch 2, you can bet it’ll be a riot testing out Nintendo’s GameChat. I’m just picturing folks hollering meme lines or debating horse anatomy as they trek up north. Maybe think of it as a Minecraft screening, just swap blocks for bandits.
So… would you snag RDR2 on the Switch 2 if it comes out? Share your thoughts below! And sorry if all that rhyming earlier was a bit much. Just roll with it.
