It looks like Rockstar Games is working on a native Red Dead Redemption 2 PS5 port, if an employee’s resume is anything to go by. RDR2’s current-gen release has been rumored for a while and was confirmed to be in development at one point by an internal Microsoft document, but it has been reported that Rockstar canceled the port. That might not be true after all.
Red Dead Redemption 2 PS5 version possibly coinciding with the PS5 Pro
This leak is brought to us by X user bogorad222, who saw the port mentioned on the LinkedIn profile of one Emma Anderson — a production coordinator at Rockstar Games. I’ve seen the profile in question myself, and can confirm its authenticity as it carries a verified badge. I’ve also taken a screenshot below of the relevant section of her profile, in case it’s edited.
Worth noting that Anderson’s profile states that she took up her current position in June 2023, which is a year after rumors circulated that Rockstar Games canceled RDR2’s current-gen ports. Her profile makes no mention of Xbox platforms or PC, so that’s also curious.
There are two possibilites here: 1. Anderson is referring to something else and not a native PS5 port. 2. Rockstar Games didn’t cancel said port/resumed development, and will take advantage of the PS5 Pro.
