Wiethoff was with Dan Allen Gaming where the interviewer asked him about the rumors of a potential re-do of the first game. Asked if the actor ever thought the remake would happen, Wiethoff responded positively, saying “I would love for it to happen.” Wiethoff says that he’d “love an opportunity” to team up with Rockstar Games again, saying that he “can’t really say enough good things about Rockstar.” Unfortunately, while Wiethoff is on board, Rockstar isn’t. Instead, Rockstar is currently all in on GTA 6. It’s easy to tell based on all the job listings and after the studio put Red Dead Online on the back burner. Besides, Take-Two Interactive wouldn’t just give GTA VI such high praise if it wasn’t confident that Rockstar is putting all of its resources to make sure that it lives up to expectations.

Rockstar is also believed to have canceled work on Xbox Series S/X and PS5 versions of Red Dead Redemption 2. So, Rockstar has at least three big remasters or remakes waiting for it after GTA VI is out. If it’s any consolation, the original Red Dead Redemption is available on the Xbox Series X via backward compatibility. It’s joined by several other games that don’t show their age if you play them on the flagship console by Microsoft.
