It looks like a new Red Dead Redemption 2 update could be coming at some point in the relatively near future. Rockstar Games released Red Dead Redemption 2 to near-universal acclaim in 2018. After launch, it supported the game with substantial updates that focused on fixing bugs and addressing other issues on top of adding new content for fans to experience in the Red Dead Online multiplayer mode.
Rockstar has since slowed down its support of Red Dead Redemption 2. In fact, the lack of big Red Dead Online updates has been a source of frustration for the community, with many criticizing Rockstar for not giving the mode the same attention enjoyed by Grand Theft Auto Online. Now Rockstar is fully dedicated to Grand Theft Auto 6, and so some fans may have assumed Red Dead Redemption 2 would have been forgotten, but there is evidence to suggest that the open world western has a new update waiting in the wings.
As pointed out by PCGamesN, Rockstar has issued «72 separate updates» to the game's file depots on Steam. In the past, activity like this has preceded new game updates, and so it is possible that a new Red Dead Redemption 2 update of some description is coming soon. If the update exists, it's anyone's guess as to what it might entail. While some might have their fingers crossed for major new Red Dead Online content, fans shouldn't hold their breath. It's best to keep one's expectations in check until Rockstar makes an official announcement, as it's entirely possible that no new update is coming to RDR2 at all.
One possibility is that a Red Dead Redemption 2 next-gen upgrade is on the way that will include some improvements for the PC version. There have been rumors of a Red Dead Redemption 2 next-gen port for years, but nothing has ever materialized. With Grand Theft Auto 6 not dropping until 2025, it's easy to see how bringing Red Dead Redemption 2 to PS5 and Xbox Series X with official ports would make a great deal of financial sense to keep fans busy in the meantime. Alternatively, maybe Red Dead Redemption 2 will be getting an update that makes it Steam Deck verified.
That's just speculation at this time, though. It's possible that Red Dead Redemption 2 will never get a native release for PS5 and Xbox Series X, especially since the game is playable on both consoles already anyway, thanks to backward compatibility. Time will tell if any new Red Dead Redemption 2 update is on the way, but fans should keep their eyes peeled just in case.

The latest update for Palworld recently released for PC players, and now it's available for Xbox gamers as well. While Palworld is readily available on both PC and Xbox, there isn't parity between the two versions yet.
