Summary
As spotted by Reddit user Timtendo12, who posted his findings on the r/GamingLeaksAndRumors subreddit, a line of code has been discovered within the officialRockstar website that hints atthe originalRed Dead Redemptionbeing added to PS Plus Premium and Xbox Game Pass in the future. An unused description that was recently added toRDR1’s about page states that Rockstar’s beloved 2010 action-adventure game “is available for Nintendo Switch, PS3, PlayStation Plus Premium for PS4 and PS5, Xbox 360, and Xbox Game Pass for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.”
Red Dead Redemptionhas been released on nearly all the platforms listed in the description, except for Microsoft and Sony’s subscription services. Therefore, unless this line of code was written accidentally by some Rockstar employee, then there’s a good chance thatRDR1will launch onto both PS Plus Premium and Game Pass sooner rather than later. It’s also important to note that such an announcement would coincide with the release of the originalRed Dead Redemptionon GTA+earlier this year, so it wouldn’t be farfetched for Rockstar to bring the game to more subscription services.
For years, Rockstar’s seminal 2010 open world cowboy game was only available on PS3, Xbox 360, and modern Xbox consoles via backwards compatibility, severely limiting the number of people that could access it on current hardware. Fortunately, though, Rockstar eventually portedRed Dead Redemptionand its standalone expansionUndead Nightmareto PS4 and Nintendo Switch in late 2023. And with rumors of aRed Dead RedemptionPC portincoming, alongside a potential Xbox Game Pass and PS Plus Premium drop, it seems like this classic Rockstar Games title may soon be available to more players than ever before.
