Rob Wiethoff, who voices Red Dead Redemption's legendary character John Marston, excited fans by unexpectedly announcing “exciting news” about the upcoming game series. In a recent live broadcast, Wiethoff hinted that he “can't think of anything else, especially while playing this game” and that he will make an important announcement before June 20.
What Should Red Dead Redemption Fans Expect?
Fans of the series think that this announcement may be related to the next-gen version of Red Dead Redemption 2 or its release on Nintendo Switch 2. In recent months, the possibility of re-releasing the second game for existing platforms and adapting it for the upcoming Nintendo console has been actively discussed online. With this hint from Wiethoff, the possibility of an official announcement in the coming days seems to have become even stronger.
Possible Scenarios: Will Red Dead Redemption 2 Be Rereleased?
A re-release of Red Dead Redemption 2 could offer players more advanced graphics, improved performance, and perhaps new content. A version that will take full advantage of the power of new generation consoles, especially PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, will be an opportunity not to be missed for fans of the series.
Nintendo Switch 2 Surprise?
Following the success of Nintendo Switch, with the release of Nintendo Switch 2, adapting Red Dead Redemption 2 to this platform may be a logical step. Combining Red Dead Redemption 2 with the portable gaming experience will offer players a unique experience.
What are Rockstar Games' plans?
It remains to be seen whether Rockstar Games will announce its plans for the franchise itself or present the news as part of an upcoming Nintendo Direct event. Either way, days full of surprises are ahead for fans of the Red Dead Redemption series. Especially the fact that the studio's last big game, GTA 6, was announced for 2025 increases the expectations even more.
Balance Between GTA 6 and Red Dead Redemption
Rockstar Games’ focus on both GTA 6 and Red Dead Redemption at the same time makes it a matter of curiosity how the studio will manage its resources. However, fans of both series believe that Rockstar Games will give both games the attention they deserve.
All in all, Rob Wiethoff's tips were enough to excite Red Dead Redemption fans. We are eagerly awaiting the official statements to be made in the coming days.
