Red Dead Redemption 2 Rumored for Switch 2 Release, Giving GameChat a Chance to Shine With Tahiti Talk and Horse Humor

Oh boy, so guess what? The game that everyone seems to love—yeah, the one with those rootin’, tootin’ cowboys slowly losing their minds as they mosey across a massive map—might be trotting onto Nintendo Switch 2. Or so some folks say. I mean, Gamereactor’s got this scoop about Rockstar’s wild west extravaganza possibly making its gaming debut on Nintendo’s latest gizmo “like, maybe later this year.” That’s a direct quote. Or close enough. Anyway, Nintendúo, a Spanish site, apparently backs this up too. Different sources, same rumor.

Wait, hang on—there’s more. So, Gamereactor’s whispering about a jazzed-up version of RDR2, which, they say, will look downright stunning on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Might happen around the same time it moseys onto Switch 2. Like, all at once, because why not?

And oh, did I mention Take-Two’s lineup? Borderlands 4, Civilization 7, NBA 2K, WWE 2K—they’re all aiming for Switch 2. Tossing something from Rockstar in there would make it a nice even five. So, in an interview with The Game Business, Take-Two’s top guy, Strauss Zelnick, talked about this plan. He’s like, “Eh, we’ll see how these games do on Switch, but I’m a believer.” Makes you think, doesn’t it?

He even said Nintendo’s been more of a first-party aficionado, but now they’re saying, “Hey, let’s branch out.” So, Take-Two’s like, “Alright, let’s go for it.” And, well, here we are. Fingers crossed, right?

Now, picture this: RDR2 on Switch 2. Imagine the chaos! Could be a wild test for Nintendo’s GameChat. Think about everyone yelling meme lines, pointing out how horse anatomy gets all weirdly realistic in the cold. It’s gonna be like watching a Minecraft movie but with extra stagecoach hijinks and run-ins with, uh, unmentionables. You know what I mean.

So, are you gonna play RDR2 on Switch 2 if it happens? Drop a line below. And sorry if this got a bit rambly. Just one of those days, you know?
