Over the last few years, countless amounts of rumors have claimed that Rockstar is working on a remaster of Red Dead Redemption. An insider leaker claimed that a remaster was in the works, but wound up cancelled, while last month, the South Korean Ratings Board posted a recent filing for a classification for Red Dead Redemption. This latest update adds even more fuel to the fire, as Rockstar updated their website today, secretly uploading a new logo for the game. Posted under the codename "RDR1RSP", it's a slightly tweaked logo for Red Dead Redemption 1, with 'Rockstar Games Presents" preceding it.

Still, no official word from Rockstar as to whether there will ever be a modern re-release of their 13-year-old game, which to this day remains stranded on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

I don't know why but I always liked RDR1 more than RDR2.

it's probably because RDR1 has a happy ending and our beloved ruthless former gang member outlive everyone else even in afterlife.

I've not played RDR2, but the ending of Redemption 1 was so depressing and memorable I still remember like I'd have finished it yesterday.

Is that a spoiler? While it is, it's an "old" game so folks who wanted to play probably have already (it's on PS3/360/One/Series).

I got really excited about this until I remembered Rockstar's current MO: pack everything full of 100+ GB of bloat, monetize it to shit, care not about the player base

Not in the universe I inhabit:

I remember a very long time ago, Dan Houser said something along the lines of "RDR never came to PC since it was one of the first games that used Rage and the code was a bit of a mess", this was also backed up by the absolute state that was GTAIV on PC.

Given the classic GTA 3D Trilogy were actually fairly decent on both Console and PC yet R* still managed to butcher the remaster I'm guessing this is also gonna be an absolute trainwreck. Remember folks, once bitten twice shy, avoid this like the plague until we know for sure it isn't another rushed and soulless cashgrab they can use to dangle infront of the shareholders while GTA 6 is still years away.

What does the RSP means in RDR1RSP

My guess is Red Dead Redemption 1 Remake/Remaster Single Player.
Or
Red Dead Redemption 1 Re-Storation Project (since they said it was speggetti code and was too hard to post to PC which will include the x86 consoles these days so they had to rebuild/refactor it.

I've been meaning to test it's emulation performance on SteamDeck but it'll be a hard pass if they ask for a $70 MSRP and add like 100GBs worth of textures

Why would a rerelease stop your for trying out the emulation?

God I hope so, I can finally ditch RPCS3
