Red Dead Redemption 2 PC Possibly Leaked

Fans of the popular Red Dead series may be in for a treat, with a possible leak pointing towards a PC release for the upcoming game Red Dead Redemption 2. Developer Rockstar and publisher Take-Two Interactive have been quiet on the topic, however a developer working for Rockstar may have accidentally leaked the upcoming project through his LinkedIn profile.

The developer, who has previously worked on other Rockstar titles such as Grand Theft Auto 5 and L.A. Noire, lists the titles he has worked on in the past, as well as the platforms they appeared on, with the section next to Red Dead Redemption 2 listing PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Previously, Grand Theft Auto 5 was released on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, with the game later being ported to the more modern PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, before finally making its way to PC after further delays. As a result, the game saw some very large sales figures, as players purchased the game multiple times throughout its lifecycle. It could be that the developer is again planning to release the game in waves, with a PC release coming sometime after its console launch.

Despite the success of the first Red Dead Redemption, the game never saw a PC release, so fans are optimistic that this time they’ll be able to experience the world without having to potentially purchase consoles. If this does turn out to be true, this isn’t the first time a third party website has leaked news of a games upcoming release, with the now infamous Walmart Canada leak being referenced at Bethesda’s E3 presentation, here.
