For a while, one has come across rumors suggesting that Rockstar Games had been planning to come up with a remastered version of Red Dead Redemption which came out in 2010. There were also reports about the gaming company being interested in remastering GTA 4. However, with Rockstar channelizing all its energies towards the development process of GTA 6, those plans got canceled. The reports that came out later suggested that the remasters were put on pause and not canceled.
Now, it is being said that remastered versions of GTA 4 and Red Dead Redemption will come out by the end of this year. While Rockstar has dropped hints about an RDR remake being in the works, it hasn’t made an official announcement about the game yet. However, the rumors about the games continue to be bombarded.
