Red Dead Redemption 2 Switch 2 Port Hinted by John Marston Voice Actor

Red Dead Redemption 2 Switch 2 Port Hinted by John Marston Voice Actor The prospect of Red Dead Redemption 2 arriving on the rumored Nintendo Switch 2 continues to build momentum, following a notable tease from Rob Wiethoff—the acclaimed voice behind the game’s protagonist, John Marston.

With Rockstar Games’ western epic setting new industry standards since its original release, the possibility of a Switch 2 version is an enticing development for fans and Nintendo’s growing audience on the hybrid platform. Red Dead Redemption 2, developed and published by Rockstar Games, launched in October 2018 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, eventually making its way to PC and Stadia.

To date, the title has surpassed 55 million copies sold worldwide, placing it among the best-selling video games in history.

The game has garnered widespread acclaim for its immersive storytelling, expansive open world, and unparalleled attention to detail, cementing Rockstar’s legacy in narrative-driven gameplay. Whispers of a Nintendo Switch 2 port for Red Dead Redemption 2 have persisted across gaming forums and social media, with recent insider reports indicating a possible release before March 2026.

Historically, the original Red Dead Redemption made its Nintendo debut on Switch in August 2023, allowing handheld access to the iconic franchise for the first time.

Though the port omitted the original’s multiplayer features, critical response noted that the game’s core experience remained faithful to Rockstar’s vision, delivering impressive performance on Nintendo’s hardware. This week, Rob Wiethoff fueled further speculation during a live stream where he previewed significant Red Dead Redemption 2 news set to be announced imminently.

"I have truly exciting news to share, but I’m unable to reveal any details just yet—it’s been difficult keeping this under wraps.

By the end of this week, and hopefully sooner, I’ll be able to discuss it publicly.

The anticipation has been overwhelming, and you’ll know everything soon enough," Wiethoff said, his enthusiasm clear to viewers on Reddit and beyond.

While Wiethoff stopped short of confirming details, his remarks have mobilized the Red Dead fanbase, particularly those tracking the evolution of Switch hardware and its burgeoning third-party support. Given Nintendo’s history of high-profile surprise reveals, often showcased during events such as Nintendo Direct presentations, speculation about a next-generation Switch port is understandable.

However, as of now, neither Rockstar Games nor Nintendo has issued an official statement confirming Red Dead Redemption 2 for the Switch 2.

Players wishing to experience the classic western on Nintendo hardware can access the original Red Dead Redemption through the Nintendo eShop, with critics broadly praising the port’s performance despite certain omitted features. As the gaming community awaits the impending announcement, all eyes are on Rockstar Games and Nintendo for what could be one of the most anticipated Switch 2 ports to date.

Stay tuned for official updates as they arrive.
