Is an RDR remake leak just dropped, or do fans just want it to be it’s true? A new Red Dead Redemption logo has been spotted on the Rockstar Games website, leading to speculation that a remake of the game is in development. The logo features the same font and style as the original game but has been updated with a cleaner look. This has led some fans to believe that Rockstar plans to give Red Dead Redemption a visual overhaul, similar to the recent remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3.
Fans on the Rockstar Games website first spotted the logo on July 18, 2023. The logo is different from the original logo in a few ways. The font is slightly cleaner, and the background is now a solid black instead of a gradient. The logo also features a new tagline: “Redemption Redefined.”
Rockstar's new site update, live an hour ago, added a new reference within the games list.

Rumors of an RDR remake have been circulating for years
The RDR remake rumors have been circulating for years. In 2021, a report from Kotaku claimed that Rockstar was working on a remake of the game for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. However, the report also said that the remake faced development problems, and it was unclear if it would ever be released.
The new logo has reignited speculation about the RDR remake. Some fans believe that the logo is a sign that the remake is still in development and that it could be released soon. Others believe that the logo is simply a way for Rockstar to brand its online services for Red Dead Redemption 2.
