During a livestream on his personal Twitch channel, Rob Wiethoff (who voices John Marston in the Red Dead Redemption series) hinted at “exciting news” to be revealed next week. According to Wiethoff, the news will be announced “before Friday”.
Wiethoff is evidently highly anticipating the announcement, stating he couldn’t “think of anything else” as he played Red Dead Redemption to his online audience. “I can’t share it with you right now, and it’s absolutely killing me.”
We already know a current-gen remaster of Red Dead Redemption 2 is in development, and there have also been rumors circulating about a Switch 2 port in the works.
Community response has been positive but tempered. With Rockstar currently tied up with the development of Grand Theft Auto 6, online forums aren’t expecting more than a graphical upgrade for 2018’s Game of the Year. An optimistic few are hoping for more, noting that a simple visual makeover wouldn’t elicit the kind of excitement Wiethoff expressed on his stream. Whatever the case, we’ll all have to wait a few more days for the official word from Rockstar.
