Red Dead Redemption 2 ‘Online Migration’ Tab Basically Confirms Next-Gen Version

Expert Verified By

Get Ready For 60FPS And Other Upgrades For Red Dead Redemption 2!

Story Highlight
  • Rockstar Games’ website has provided yet another hint at the next-generation version of Red Dead Redemption 2.
  • The website shows an option to transfer online progress, an option that also exists for GTA 5 due to the game’s many versions.
  • An official announcement should be coming soon after this massive hint.

Fans have asked Rockstar Games for an upgraded version of Red Dead Redemption 2 on consoles for the longest time, and recent rumors have suggested that the studio is finally ready to grant these wishes.

Following early discussions, a new hint provides even more concrete evidence that Red Dead Redemption 2 is set to receive the next-generation treatment.

Why it matters: The game, despite being one of the best console experiences of the last generation, is unable to reach its full potential on the PS5 and Xbox Series S|X in its current state.

Red Dead Redemption 2
RDR2 Will Look Even Better With The New Version

Rockstar Games’ website now shows an ‘Online Migration’ tab for Red Dead Redemption 2 in the Support section. This is significant since a similar system was used for GTA Online account migrations when the game received different versions across the various console generations.

Effectively, this option should allow fans to transfer their existing characters and save data to a newer version of the game. Because Red Dead Redemption 2 currently has a single version on consoles, this likely means that a completely new port is on the way.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is in dire need of 60FPS, higher resolution support, faster loading, and more on the PS5 and Xbox Series S|X. Fans can expect all of that and more once the next-generation version arrives.

Red Dead Redemption 2
Rockstar Games Is Also Planning RDR3

The game’s online component also received a somewhat significant update recently. Although this mode has been mostly ignored for the past few years, this update suggests Rockstar Games has big plans for the title.

Therefore, fans should stay tuned for more details on a next-generation version of one of gaming’s best stories to date.
