Red Dead Redemption 2 Reportedly Coming to Switch 2: GameChat Ready to Dream of Tahiti and Horses

Man, okay, so here’s the thing. Picture this: all those rootin’, tootin’ outlaws from your favorite game (you know the one I’m talking about) just getting more and more bummed out as they shuffle around this ridiculously huge map. Yeah, that game might be heading to the Nintendo Switch 2. Or so they say.

Gamereactor’s the one spilling the beans here, apparently hearing from some Rockstar insiders that it could hit Nintendo’s new console “soon.” Like, could be this year. They even mentioned some Spanish mag, Nintendúo, backing up this claim. Weird, but kinda exciting, right?

Oh, and by the way, there’s also talk of a shiny update for RDR2 being in the works to make it sing on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Supposedly dropping around the same time the cowboys mosey on over to Switch 2. Graphics, performance — the whole shebang.

Then there’s Take-Two’s big hitters, Borderlands 4, Civilization 7, NBA 2K, and WWE 2K, all lined up for Switch 2. Throwing in something from Rockstar? That’s like the cherry on top. Take-Two’s CEO, Strauss Zelnick, even mentioned in The Game Business that they’re keeping an eye on how those games perform on Nintendo’s playground, but he’s optimistic. Something about Nintendo stepping up their first-party game. It’s kind of a big deal.

If RDR2 does show up on Switch 2, just imagine the chaos! Ninty’s GameChat will be buzzing with folks trading meme quotes and commenting on the uh, unique details like horse anatomy changes in the cold. The energy’s gonna be like a Minecraft movie night, but with more drama and maybe some questionable characters showing up.

So, would you jump into RDR2 on the Switch 2 if it actually happens? I mean, hard not to get carried away here. Let me know what you think, and sorry if I got a bit too loopy with the storytelling.
