Red Dead Redemption Remaster Might Finally be Happening

Red Dead Redemption has received a new listing on the Korean Age Ratings website, which suggests a console remaster is soon to come. The game had earlier been withdrawn from the PS Now streaming service less than a year ago, making it unplayable on PS4 and PS5.

Red Dead Redemption, which debuted in May 2010, is one of the most popular games of the seventh console generation. Additionally, despite never being made available on the PS3 and Xbox 360, it was available on PS Now for six years, ending in late 2022. 

The Xbox Series (X/S) is the only current-generation system that can play Red Dead Redemption since its removal from the PS Now service. However, Microsoft's ninth-generation consoles are capable of simulating the Xbox 360 version.

On a rather high note, the South Korean Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC) just classified Red Dead Redemption on June 27. The GRAC upheld the game's original adult classification in 2010 after receiving an application from Rockstar parent Take-Two Interactive on June 15. 

A top-notch reproduction of the original Red Dead Redemption Online, which is still playable, has long been a goal of many gamers. The Red Dead Redemption games have sold 75 million copies worldwide as of March 31, according to Take-Two's most recent financial report, with RDR2 accounting for more than two-thirds of that total after shipping an additional 3 million units in the first three months of 2023. 

This also reveals another incredible sales milestone for the Grand Theft Auto series. Given that the series has maintained its popularity, it is safe to infer that there is still substantial interest in it. As a result, a hypothetical Red Dead Redemption remaster shouldn't have any trouble establishing a fan base.
