Red Dead Redemption 2 could be coming to Switch 2 this year

Third-party support has been a key focus for Nintendo as they push out updates to their Switch platform, with many developers eyeing the upcoming Switch 2. Among these is Red Dead Redemption 2, a monumental game that could soon grace the new console, either alongside or after an anticipated next-gen update for PlayStation and Xbox Series X/S. Rockstar has confirmed plans to port the beloved open-world Western to Switch 2, with current-gen patch support already possible due to its age. This move could bridge the gap between existing Switch users and future high-end console releases like GTA 6's delayed May 2026 launch.
