The yet-to-be-announced Red Dead Redemption remaster may be coming to Nintendo Switch as well, judging from some recent findings.
Tez2, who discovered the updated Red Dead Redemption logo on the Rockstar Games website following a new update, also discovered how the updated website added the game to the rating list of the modern site modules, which weren’t being used by the original website. Additionally, among the platform buttons added to the website is a Nintendo Switch button. While this is not indicative of the unannounced remaster also coming to the console, it is definitely an interesting find, considering this button was added alongside the updated logo.
Plus, Rockstar included RDR1 to the Ratings list of the modern site modules.
RDR1 Original site doesn’t use those modules. Suggesting a site update.
PS3, Xbox 360 and Switch were newly added as platform buttons (CTA)

As the Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition also launched on Nintendo Switch, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the Red Dead Redemption remaster also make it onto the console. If this is indeed the case, we shouldn’t expect the remaster to feature graphics on par with the latest entry in the series, as the Nintendo Switch wouldn’t be able to handle them, but a visual uplift in the vein of the Trilogy or hopefully better. The remastering job of the older entries in the Grand Theft Auto series was far from perfect, after all, and Red Dead Redemption deserves much better than a shoddy remaster.
The Red Dead Redemption remaster has yet to be officially announced. We will keep you updated on the game as soon as more come in on it, so stay tuned for all the latest news.
