Rumour alert everyone. It appears that a screenshot from a supposedly current-gen remake of Red Dead Redemption has been leaked online. This image comes straight from an ex-Rockstar employee, so this could very well be legit.
According to Reddit’s member ‘WColt‘ who found this image:
“So, you guys probably already know that this image was found due to a sloppy website config from an ex R* employee. Spider-Vice, over at the GTAForums posted this website of Matt Clyne where i looked around and landed on the recents page ( http://mattclyne.zenfolio.com/recent.html ). i saw the thumbnail to this image, but when i tried to open it, it wanted the password for the folder, which i did not have.
So i thought that maybe i could get the full link of the image and maybe get it to show me itself in a bigger size. This wasnt a very hard step, since the filesize was in the url, which i could change.”
Now whether this image is from a fan project (we’ve seen a lot of artists experimenting with such recreations) or from a real remake remains a mystery.
We’ve heard some more rumours surrounding this remake and the sequel to Red Dead Redemption. Without going into too much details, it’s rumoured that both the sequel and the remake of Red Dead Redemption will be announced at this year’s E3. Sounds familiar? Yeap, the very same thing ‘surfaced’ last year, right before E3. And nothing happened. So take this with a grain of salt… at least for now.
Also, my God that Chromatic Aberration is so awful!

I do not want this game. Not in a sad ugly state. If you are to do a remaster. PLZ. PROPER.
After GTA V (PC) you still have doubts about Rockstar?
Well if this image is anything to go by, i do. But yea, GTAV was a very good game/port. I know everybody doesn’t feel the same about GTAV port but still, it wasn’t a mess.
Yeah, sure, and Half Life 3 will be announced as well.
if it release on pc well better late than never i’ve already completed the game on ps3 as much as i enjoyed it this game visuals deserved to be on pc to truly shine
Haven’t played it yet, so I’m okay with this.
Me too, if i cant play the game on M+K doesn’t worth to play at all even if the story is really good. Playing FPS and 3PS with a joypad is a big no way for me.
Although I don’t mind playing consoles, I don’t own any and since I have a PC don’t really bother looking at em much. Would much rather they emulate on PC and allow me to choose between M+K or bluetooth controller. The dedicated hardware is nice, however its becoming a bit tedious and the switch over to x86 has gotten most game devs in line with the new programming styles.
Wouldn’t be out of place to drop an HD remaster prior to that.
If not on pc then fk u
Looks worse than Max Payne 3.
Its a console game wtf did you expect, 4K?
Since DSOG reporting this I thought it’s coming to PC.
Thats the idea.
max payne 3 looks amazing
What was that X1 backwards deal about really? First console peasants could play it, then in a sudden not? Obviously they are plotting some sort of a remaster and not as JOHN perhaps incorrectly said remake. Anyway i think its a safe bet it will be Denuvo protected if it comes to PC.
RDR was originally made in the RAGE engine so that’s not surprising to see a screenshot in that engine doesn’t add any significance to there being a pc build. RAGE engine since gta 4 has been RockStar’s goto engine for their games.
What does lend credence is, RDR while heralded as one of the greatest sandbox games of all time never made its way to pc. GTA 5 was a serious seller on PC, more than 4.5 million copies sold generating close to $250 million in revenue on pc alone. Those are the kind of numbers that make it hard to ignore the platform so if there is a RDR remake underway to the current gen systems (which would make total sense) I think it would be a pretty safe bet that a PC ver is also being made.
The best case scenario would be remake and sequel announced, w remake launching first possibly during holiday season more likely in april
good point sir!
they still are in TOP on steam after all this time !
and if they drop the price on GTA V again goes on 1st on sale
Look at the background on the right.. Seems fan made with Unity.
at this point everyone knows rockstar is doing something red dead related a remaster on next gen is possible.
it was always running on the RAGE engine
Well obviously. 🙂 At least for a true PC gamer. I dont even have a console.
Seeing how much of a downgrade the shooting and physics were in gtav i’d prefer the original over a remake in the new engine.
PC version or F! U!
Even If this does finally come to PC I expect the Steam forums will be bemoaning how disappointed they all are with it and how it is a console port etc. etc.
It can’t possibly meet peoples expectations now the game is almost mythical. I played through it on the 360 and whilst good it wasn’t great although far better than any of the GTA games as I really dislike those.
“screenshot shows the game running in RAGE Engine”
As opposed to what other engine? That’s the engine the game uses.

Xbone version confirmed
