Once upon a time in the west.

Last year, a PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 appeared on the profile of a programmer who had worked for Rockstar Leeds until 2016 and was quickly removed. Now, the profile of a former physics programmer who worked for Rockstar Toronto until 2016 also has a listing for Read Dead Redemption 2 that mentions PC.

Nan Ma worked at Rockstar for six years and five months and his profile also lists credits for Max Payne 3 and Grand Theft Auto 5. Now he's the CEO and founder of a VR studio called Future Immersive.

Here's everything we know about whether we'll eventually see Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC or not.

Thanks, Reddit.

Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance. A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games. He's written for Rock Paper Shotgun, The Big Issue, GamesRadar, Zam, Glixel, Five Out of Ten Magazine, and Playboy.com, whose cheques with the bunny logo made for fun conversations at the bank. Jody's first article for PC Gamer was about the audio of Alien Isolation, published in 2015, and since then he's written about why Silent Hill belongs on PC, why Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is the best fantasy shopkeeper tycoon game, and how weird Lost Ark can get. Jody edited PC Gamer Indie from 2017 to 2018, and he eventually lived up to his promise to play every Warhammer videogame.
