Suggestions a Red Dead Redemption remake or remaster is in the works from Rockstar are doing the rounds again as Internet sleuths have uncovered a new logo for the PS3 title recently uploaded to the developer's website. First spotted by Twitter user Tez2, a site update from earlier today included a new reference within the games list as well as the new logo you see below.
While the logo does look very similar to the one used on the front of the PS3 box art, there are some very small changes to the black bordering around the text. In addition, the trademark logo has changed. The codename is RDR1RSP, which some people have taken to mean Red Dead Redemption 1 Remaster SP (single player). Another suggestion is Red Dead Redemption 1 RockStar Presents.
This latest piece of evidence is by no means the first time we've seen claims Rockstar is planning on bringing back Red Dead Redemption for modern systems. The story started last year when it was reported the developer had shelved remasters of Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto IV following the poor reception to GTA Trilogy: The Definitive Edition. More recently, though, the game has been given a new age rating in Korea and then the achievements in the Rockstar Social Club were updated. Next, Sacred Symbols lead Colin Moriarty claimed to have seen evidence of a revival project and said an official announcement could take place as soon as next month.
Interestingly, it was also spotted that Take-Two — the company that owns Rockstar Games — plans to release "two new iterations of previously-released titles in 2024". Could Red Dead Redemption be one of them? There's mounting evidence to suggest so. Would you go back to the original Red Dead Redemption for another playthrough? Let us know in the comments below.

I bought RDR1 on launch in 2010. Maybe I wouldn't do it again now, but I will surely play a remake/remaster of one of the most impactful game narratives I ever experienced.
"Our time has passed John".
Would absolutely love this. One of my fav games of the ps3 generation
Would be really cool since I never played the original.
Hope they do a better job than with the GTA Trilogy though
All this and not a whiff of GTA, only Rockstar.
This game was awesome! I know it was a fake news article but an 'outlaw collection' would be amazing.
Also hope it is a remake considering much of the first games open world and characters are available in RDR2. Barring Mexico of course.
PS5 version would sell like hotcakes.
I want this. I get annoyed about how many remasters and remakes there are these days but honestly screw it, any excuse to mess around in the Red Dead 2 engine again.
Hopefully an official announcement is imminent. Do this right and this is a day one purchase for me.
Gotta be honest. There’s few remakes and remasters I’d want to buy and I still think it’s too soon for RDR1, but I’d probably get it anyway. There’s few games as good as the RDR series
I’d be all over this like beans on toast.
Well, Tez specifically says remaster not a remake. I wish it was a full blown remake, but I think with GTA 6 grooming over the horizon, remake is good enough.
Honestly all i want is the same game with Undead Nightmare included but with RDR2's visuals alongside a 60fps patch for RDR2. I don't need anything fancy here.
@itsfoz GTA 6 is currently being made as we speak.
If one of the two re-releases is GTA 4, I will actually cry actual tears.
N.i.c.e. red dead redemption is a classic.red dead redemption 2 is a instant classic.a remake or remastered of the first red dead redemption is welcome.word up son
I really want to see the McFarlane ranch scenes in glorious 4k(ish) 🔥
And shoot outs in old forts with ray tracing would be bloody f***ing superb if possible 🙏 (in fact I'm now just remembering the absolutely monumental effort rockstar put in to environmental effects when interacting with bullets and explosions in RDR2. Seriously, go and shoot or explode a cactus, then go in to photomode right now, people, and see)
Exploring ruins in TW3 with ray tracing enabled is just about the most beautiful games have been so far, and those effects would suit the RDR environment so well, with all the crumbling buildings and desert, and regular ps4 RDR2 looked absolutely stunning 99% of the time too with its dynamic weather.
So I would absolutely pay full price for an original RDR remake of similar RDR2 style.
Cough* I mean, I would maybe pay £49.99, Take Two. Keep it reasonable for people, yeah?
And I can't resist addressing the fact that this tweet is so dumb. They literally say "rockstar presents version" and then seconds later try to guess the meaning of "RSP" as "Remaster Single Player" 😂
They need to hurry up and release this as there is no decent modern way to play it unless you choose to emulate or own an Xbox.
Am I the only one who wants a BULLY REMASTER/REMAKE?
yes please remaster this game
I really really hope this isn't another cash grab like the GTA trilogy.
If it's good I'll pick it up on PC and PS5. One for the 4K surround sound experience and the other for the 1440p surround sound experience with mods
@danzoEX A ground up remake would be incredible.
I so hope all this lead’s to a true release. Red Dead and Diablo are 2 of my top 3 favorite franchises in gaming. To get both of them in the same year would be insane for me. I have Red Dead on the Xbox Series X and the upscaling they did to it looks fairly incredible seeing as it’s a 360/PS3 game. I hate that PS/PC users and don’t have access to RDR1. So this remake would be a huge win for the PS/PC library. Please be real!!
I'm sure this will be at least as good as their GTA Trilogy remaster
I'd love it if Rockstar got Rob Wiethoff back in the studio to record a few new lines specifically for this remaster so that John mentions and remembers Arthur.
Logo looks no different to me 🤔
@danzoEX the snowflakes would go mad lmao
The ™ is now an ®, that's the only thing that was changed, those logos are otherwise identical.
Day 1 purchase (assuming it's not a dumpster fire like GTA remasters)
@HonestHick It's a 7th gen game so I'd imagine it would also come to Switch which is a big get.
Bully is better and you know it.
@Grumblevolcano that would be awesome if it came to switch. I want games on more places, not less so that would be great. Can’t wait for Switch 2, so they can run even more 3rd party stuff.
This and a PS5 update for RDR2 and I’ll be delighted and will 100% play through back to back. Imagine being able to play both games through in the same map.
@danzoEX I would to see a Manhunt remake or remaster as well. 😅
@KaijuKaiser The original is a massively different game to RDR2, assuming that’s what you’re referring to. I can definitely see how the sequel would be boring to someone but the OG is outstanding
Like a tramp in chips! But it should have been a dlc addin for 2, the map was made for it! 😂
