Oh man, so there’s this whole buzz—internet whispers, if you will—about that game with the cowboy crew who seem to, like, get more bummed out the longer they wander around this huge open world. You know the one! Anyway, rumor has it, they’re moseying their way onto Nintendo Switch 2. Or is it just Switch, or Switch something else? Kind of losing track with these names, honestly.
Right, so this info comes from this site called Gamereactor—kind of fitting, if you think about it. And apparently, they heard straight from the horse’s mouth (okay, maybe not literally) that Rockstar is planning to drop this cowboy jukebox on Nintendo’s latest gizmo, like, soon-ish? Maybe end of this year? They also mentioned some Spanish site called Nintendúo backed up the claim. Fancy that!
Oh, and by the way, there are these rumblings—a bit like thunder in the distance or maybe just my upstairs neighbor moving furniture—that there’s gonna be some snazzy update. You know, one of those make-your-eyes-pop graphics and performance revamps for RDR2 to really shine on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Around the same time the outlaws hit Switch 2. Coincidence? You tell me.
Switch 2’s got this lineup of big games coming. Borderlands 4, Civilization 7—wait, there’s a seventh now?!—NBA 2K, and WWE 2K. It’s like they’re having a whole gaming convention. Adding a Rockstar title feels like sprinkling some extra spicy seasoning into the mix, right?
Then there’s this CEO dude, Strauss Zelnick—I don’t know, kind of sounds like a name out of a noir novel—talking about how Nintendo’s been great with first-party stuff but it sounds like they’re stepping up their game. Got the feeling he’s cautiously optimistic. Like, hopeful but with eyebrows raised. If that’s a thing.
Anyway, if RDR2 makes it to Switch 2, it’s gonna be a fun little experiment. I can already imagine folks on game chat losing their minds over… I don’t know, horse physics? Ice actually affects the size of the horses’—um, nevermind that. It’ll probably be chaotic, kind of like a Minecraft get-together but with more drama. And definitely more chances for digital stagecoach theft.
So the big question—would you play RDR2 on Switch 2 if it happens? Maybe? Let us know what you think. And yeah, sorry if this got a bit lyrical. Just kind of rolled with it, y’know?
