Let’s talk about Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC

If you’re hanging on to the hope that Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming to PC this year or early in 2019, please give that up. Rockstar Games is launching its Western sequel for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 26, but it hasn’t said anything about a version for Windows. That’s disappointing — especially after the new trailer dropped today and gave us a first look at some 4K gameplay on a PlayStation 4 Pro.

So what is going on here? Is this a repeat of the original Red Dead Redemption? That game never came to PC, and it looks like it never will. When it comes to Rockstar, the same thing could end up happening to Red Dead Redemption 2. This is a studio that doesn’t have to do anything just because it makes sense. Grand Theft Auto V is the third game to surpass 100 million copies sold in the history of this business, so this is not a company that has to answer to anyone.
