It appears that Take-Two and Rockstar may shadowdrop Red Dead Redemption Remastered on PC any day now. Yep, this isn’t an out of date April’s Fools joke. Red Dead Redemption Remastered is coming to PC.
Rockstar has updated the PlayStation page of the game with some new info. As the page states, players can now “experience the epic western adventures that defined a generation — now on PC for the first time ever.”
Not only that, but it appears that there will be some PC enhancements. Rockstar claims that we’ll get support for increased resolutions and framerates. Plus, there will be support for multiple displays, and other accessories, plus spatial surround sound. Still, there is no word yet on whether we’ll also get Ray Tracing, DLSS or FSR.
In short, this is a legit leak. Since Rockstar has not announced the game yet for the PC, Sony has likely ruined its upcoming announcement.
My guess is that RDR Remastered will be announced for the PC at Gamescom 2024. So, Rockstar will either shadowdrop it or reveal a release date. Either way, this appears to be the real deal.
What this also means is that PC gamers won’t have to rely on emulators in order to play it. A native PC version will perform better, and it will have native mouse and keyboard controls.
Last week, we informed you about shadPS4 running this game at 30fps. However, there are a lot of visual artifacts in the latest version of the PS4 emulator. As such, the game is nowhere close to being described as playable.
PC gamers could play Red Dead Redemption Remastered via some Nintendo Switch emulators. However, that version looked inferior to the PS4 version. So, that wasn’t an ideal way to play it.
Finally, in case Sony edits the PSN store page, I’ve captured a screenshot of it. As you can see, the page shares all the details about the upcoming PC version.
Stay tuned for more!

" will be some PC enhancements. Rockstar claims that we’ll get support for increased resolutions and framerates"
i bet it will have mouse support as well.
Something standard for a PC game back then now become a tick in the marketing list
I personally love when games advertise not having a (skin) shop.
Typical big corp behavior, create an issue ,and then market and sell the solution for that same issue.
I had a feeling it might release around 1 year after PS4 and Switch version release date of August 17th, 2023. Still won't be celebrating until its officially announced for PC.
Dunno, a saturday seems kind of a weird day to release this. Might be today or thursday (or friday).
My bet is shadow drop during Gamescom.
It baffles me that they still had the audacity to delay it for 1 year even after delaying it for 14 years.
Why is this leak on Playstation Store lol ? Its weird
Rockstar releasing this port a year after ps4/switch versions does not bode well for gta 6 on pc.
Any PC gamer that still gives money to this company is either stvpid or way too uninformed.
i have purchased all games of Cockstar on steam on big discounts only. The company has bad practices but they make good games, u have to keep in mind Rockstar is wholly owned subsidiary of Take two. They fully control Rockstar games company. 90% of the anti consumer things cockstar does is becoz of Take two.
They always do the same, first on consoles, then the "next gen"…then on PC years later so people double/triple dip…is disgusting and treats PC players as second tier, but it makes them money…so i can only blame the dumb consumers at this point.
The GTA 6 announcement already confirmed it was only releasing on PS5/SX (at least at first).
I removed the emulated version because the medicore graphics, low framerates and terrible gamepad controls.
You can get 4k60 easily on yuzu with any mid pc nowadays
Which emulator? I played it yuzu on a potato PC with keyboard and mouse and the game ran fine.
Finally some great PC gaming news! Latelly I had nothing to play on PC. Can't wait!
i didn't wait for this to play it on PC ~
finished it on emulator… seriously, 14 year to port it on PC…
and then they will complain PC isn't worth it because nobody buy it…
Yes! Yes! Yes! Finally some article worth reading. Give me this. I haven't played 2 yet. I've not spoiled this game on emulators. I know the ending, I know the intro. But dang shooting game with mouse is the only way to go. I've waited long. Bring it on.
Undead nightmare is a proper nightmare on controller and 30fps, trust me. The dead won in my playthrough xD
Lmao those zombos've got quite some reflexes, yes! Not anymore on PC If I suppose. I'd love to use trainer and send'em all to hell with gatling gun Hahaah
Yeah can't wait for modders to port in the minigun from Vice City 😉
I like your enthusiasm! The music and atmosphere in Red Dead 1 are way better then in Red Dead 2. And Read Dead 2 had great music and atmosphere. Something else that it's better in Read Dead 1 is the side quests. They are sometimes even better then the main missions. I had an incredible experience on PS3. If I knew this day will come..well..it's no big deal.. : ) I can always finish the game again on pc when it's out! : d
Yeah, back in 2011, when La noire came out, I dearly wished if I could play RDR on pc and there used to be fake pc torrents that I came around that time. So I just used to watch that R* revolver logo many times hoping that someday I will see it on PC without youtube and Now it's here, hahaha. I can't wait to play it and then 2 (I'm kinda orderly guy you know) gonna experience the fuzz on all the epicness 😉
Better 14 years late than never.
Also thanks Double Eleven for fixing the mess that R* made.
"Remastered"? Coz it will support 1080p+?
FFS
so, this game is coming out 15 freaking years later on PC than on consoles
the sheer arrogance and contempt Rockstar has for PC players
o bet its gonna be super censored.
Well, since no dev is obligated to release on any platforms other than the OG choice, I don't understand your complaints.
And there's great chance this game is coming for free, so even less reason to whine.
It's already free on emulators
What? There is zero possibility of this being free. Why would you think they'd give away an insanely big anticipated game for free?
No DENUVO = Free
Maybe if it hits gamepass or gets under $20 I'd consider the replay
Prob be a crap remaster just higher refresh higer resolution aspect ratio with keyboard and mouse suport with the added bonus of Denuvo.
As much as I hate what R* has become. I love this game too much to not get it day one 😞
how much will we pay? $70.- ? for a remastered game? probably with low effort if I were to believe how they handled the GTA remaster
Good point and if they charged that much it would be ridiculous. That's why I always stress the difference between a remake and a remaster. It's important not to interchange the two terms because a remake takes far more work so it should cost more but a remaster should never cost anywhere near full AAA price. It's just a graphics facelift, better textures, better lighting, support for modern resolutions, maybe improved UI but it doesn't take a lot of work like a remake.
Knowing Rockstar, I wouldn't be surprised. And you're right its a remaster, I personally think slapping $25-30,- on a remaster is a decent price to ask.
Funny thing how people tend to get confused with remakes and remasters, it baffles me to my core. As you said, its a facelift hence remaster. Remakes are build from the ground up, obviously they can ask full price for that. I don't know why, on some YT commentes (or even in youtube video titles) people call something remake when its clearly polished up textures, enhanced to 4K etc.
I'd expect it to be in line with the PS4/Switch release which is $50.
It's not going to be like the PS2 trilogy mess, this is basically just a straight port without the multiplayer.
I agree w you guys shttiy move by rs, should have released this long ago native pc but it will also be really nice to get this without the extra hp needed for emus unless they mess it up w lots of unnecessary things who knows at least we'll have options to adjust to our system more then emus give us. I'm certainly not forking out cash for it though, that ship sailed years ago.
Am I the only one who doesn't believe this at all? This happens every few months. People hype themselves up over rumors that have been circulating since 2010 and still haven't come true 14 years later.
If it does happen, I'd be super happy about it. But man, I just don't believe this at all. Just like a few months ago when this was posted, and last September, and last August and the year before that and the year before that.
too late cockstar, already finished with the yuzu and xenia emulators LOL 👍🤣
Why on earth was this leaked from a description at the ps store, of all places?
This leads credence to the theory that all these "leaks" are really just publicity campaigns by marketeer scum.
Meh, RDR2 bored me to tears.
Is this one any better?
If you don't like RDR2, you might not enjoy this one.
It'll probably look like the GTA 3 remaster …… so bad it's unplayable for normal people
I was able to stop stuttering in the GTA 3 (and Vice City and San Andreas) remaster by using the Lossless Scaling app. Nothing else I tried worked.
I gotta race to beat this on an emulator so I dont feel pressured to get this
It's about time. Rockstar should learn to never forget the pc platform for their ps3 classics. Not bringing Midnight Club LA to PC is a waste!
