Red Dead Redemption 2 on current-gen consoles has been a pretty hot topic since Xbox Series X|S launched, and while we've not heard anything official on a port yet, it was seemingly in the works at some stage. Thanks to today's huge FTC document leak, we know that Microsoft was aware of plans for RDR2 to launch for the ninth generation of consoles - including Xbox Series X and S.
The leak comes from an internal email that gathered up a bunch of potential upcoming releases, when they were set to launch, and whether they were likely to come to Xbox Game Pass.

As you can see in the above image there, Take-Two was seemingly working on bringing Red Dead 2 natively to this generation of consoles in 2023, and Microsoft was potentially targeting it for a day and date Game Pass launch. Of course, the year is almost over and we haven't seen an announcement yet, let alone the actual launch!
However, the company did practically shadow drop Red Dead Redemption onto other platforms just last month, so you can't really rule anything out with Rockstar & Co. It's best to temper your expectations though, as these are simply internal plans between Microsoft employees and nothing official has been announced.

Didn't we already know this via leaks, and it got shelved after the GTA definitive debacle? Or am I imagining this?
It still looks phenomenal. All it would need is a 4K 60fps patch unless they are serious about QoL features
It's WILD how severely they underestimated BG3, the most likely to win GOTY 2023.
I so want that. Please take the time and do it right. It’s one of the best single player story games of all time in my opinion. Put in the work and release it fully cooked and it will be even greater than the original release. I will buy it day 1 and start 100 plus hours all over again.
Well I certainly hope BG3 comes to gamepass. Good to see that had it in consideration.
@OrfeasDourvas I don't think anyone was resoanably expecting BG3 to be GOTY. Most people didn't even know the game exsisted until the review window. The fact they even had it on the list is pretty smart thinking.
Please re release the game at 60fps on series s and x it's an amazing game up there with the best gmaes ever for me
No i'm not disappointed, I had 250+ hours on rdr2 on my old xbox one x and i really enjoyed every moment, definitely one of the best games ever but I can't see my self playing again from the begging even if it has 60fps. Rdr2 was the game that pushed me into consoles in the first place.
