Red Dead Redemption 2 Has Been Rated for Nintendo Switch in Brazil

Feral Interactive has announced an updated version of Hitman: Blood Money for Nintendo Switch and mobile.

Though most of this year’s titles were released on time without much hassle, there are still some delays. For instance, Warner Bros. Games’ Batman: Arkham Trilogy on the Nintendo Switch. Set to release on October 13th, the publisher has announced a sudden delay to December 1st.

NetherRealm has released its latest patch for Mortal Kombat 1.

With Nintendo allegedly having showcased tech demos of the Switch 2 (or whatever it ends up being called) to developers in behind-closed-doors presentations at Gamescom in August, leaks related to the console have been springing up with much greater frequency of late, including some of the games we can expect to launch for the system.

We don’t see too many big western-themed AAA titles launch into the marketplace. However, Rockstar Games had made a real hit when they took on Red Dead Redemption. The video game franchise grew a strong following where players were eager to dive into a life of being an outlaw. With Red Dead Redemption finally seeing a launch on the Nintendo Switch, there was a bit of a surprise that came after. A ratings board listed Red Dead Redemption 2 coming to the marketplace for the Nintendo Switch. 

Voxel-based destruction game Teardown will be released for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 15, 2023.

Red Dead Redemption 2 may launch on Nintendo Switch if a ratings board is to be believed.

There was a real surprise when Rockstar Games unveiled they were bringing Red Dead Redemption back. However, some fans were surprised that this port would be coming to the Nintendo Switch. While the port was relatively well received, it was thought that you would have to continue this franchise with a game on a competitor platform. Red Dead Redemption 2 is readily available to pick up right now on PC, PlayStation 4, and the Xbox One platforms. However, a new rating revealed that a port might be coming to the Nintendo Switch platform. 

The Nintendo Switch is long past the traditional lifespan for a console and its technological limitations are rendering it unable to stand up to current generation systems for new games. Titles such as have struggled in making versions that can run on the outdated system, and Nintendo itself appears to be focusing heavily on remakes and remasters. As beloved as the Switch has been, and with as popular of a console as it continues to be, the next system will need to include many impressive features if it hopes to see similar numbers in sales.

Sometimes, gamers must ask out loud, “Who asked for this?” Usually, those moments come when a video game arrives that quite simply doesn’t live up to the hype or the long development time it took to get made. When Gotham Knights was released last year after a long wait, many gamers indeed wondered who asked for a title like that. While the concept was good, the execution was lacking, leading to many woes, including optimization across all platforms. Now, a new rating again implies that the Nintendo Switch will get a version of the title.
