Oh man, where do I even start with this? Okay, so picture this: a bunch of dusty cowboys, kind of mopey but like, they’re still doing the whole outlaw thing, right? Well, guess what? They might be galloping, or maybe moseying, onto the Nintendo Switch 2 soon. Wild, huh?
Apparently, Gamereactor got the scoop from some pals close to Rockstar—whoever they are—that our cowpoke gang’s showing up on Nintendo’s shiny new gadget maybe even this year. There’s also this Spanish site, Nintendúo (which, by the way, sounds like a name I might’ve come up with in my sleep) saying the same thing. So there you go, double whammy.
Here’s a little “oh, by the way” moment: It’s not just about making the game fit the new box. Nope, they might also jazz it up for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. But like, don’t quote me on this—well, actually, do—but you get what I’m saying.
Switch 2’s got some big hitters lined up already: Borderlands 4, Civilization 7, NBA 2K, WWE 2K. And tossing Rockstar’s cowboy caper into the mix? That’s a lot of games, my friend. Also, Strauss Zelnick, the big cheese over at Take-Two, spilled some beans in an interview about these games launching on Switch. He’s crossing fingers, toes, and maybe even shoelaces it’ll pan out. Basically, Nintendo’s got their game face on, apparently upping their third-party game. Who’d have thunk it?
Imagine playing RDR2 on Switch 2, though. Chatting away about, well, whatever people talk about in game chats… Maybe even horse anatomy, because that’s a thing now. And it’s like, Minecraft meets the Wild West, but with a tad more anarchy and maybe Ku Klux Klan run-ins. Not my ideal adventure, but hey, to each their own.
So, are you hopping on this potential virtual saddle? Do tell. And sorry if I got carried away with a few awkward rhymes. It happens.
