Report: Red Dead Redemption 2 May Launch on Switch 2, Offering GameChat the Opportunity to Shine with Tahiti and Horseball Commentary

Alright, here goes:

So, what’s the deal with our favorite game about a crew of wild west misfits slowly losing their minds while they scamper all over an insanely big map? Yeah, you guessed it, I’m talking about “Red Dead Redemption 2” – and apparently, it’s gonna make its way onto the Nintendo Switch 2. Or so they say. I caught wind of this on Gamereactor, which claims it heard whispers from folks in the know at Rockstar. And there’s a Spanish blog called Nintendúo that’s kinda backing this up too. Seriously, the digital grapevine is buzzing.

Wait, though – there’s more. Gamereactor’s got another juicy tidbit: apparently, they heard about a snazzy new update for RDR2 that’s gonna spruce up the graphics and performance for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. All happening around the same time our cowboy friends arrive on the Switch 2. It’s like everyone’s getting a facelift at once. How… considerate?

Oh, and speaking of games, did you know that big-name releases like Borderlands 4, Civilization 7, NBA 2K, and WWE 2K are queued up for Switch 2 too? Toss in something from Rockstar, and boom – five’s a party, right? In a convo with The Game Business, Take-Two’s head honcho, Strauss Zelnick, spilled the beans about these games coming on board. He was kinda playing it cool, like, “Eh, we’ll see how they do,” but you could tell he’s a bit of an optimist.

“Nintendo’s all about their own games usually,” he mentions, “but seems like they wanna mix it up now. We’re here for it, throwing our hat into the ring, and, well, fingers crossed.” Or something along those lines. I wasn’t really paying attention. Blame it on the mid-afternoon coffee crash.

And if RDR2 makes it to Switch 2? Oh boy, it’s gonna test Ninty’s GameChat to the max. Picture it: gang of pals belting out meme-worthy lines, debating horse anatomy details (yeah, you know the ones). Kind of like a chaotic cinema experience, but instead of animated blocks, you’ve got bandits and random run-ins with guys in white hoods. Real casual.

So, if this wild ride does roll onto Switch 2, are you in? Share your thoughts, and sorry if I turned into a poet mid-way. It just sorta happened.
