Those still holding on to hopes that Red Dead Redemption coming to PC may well give up now, as it was never "seriously" considered in the first place.
It was so much so that Kris Roberts, who was the game's lead multiplayer designer, was surprised to hear Grand Theft Auto 5 saw a PC version of its own.
"I don't think there was ever an intention to have a PC version of Red Dead Redemption," Roberts said while answering questions on his personal Twitch stream, according to GameSpot.
"I was actually super shocked that they did a PC version of Grand Theft Auto 5.
"Obviously in development, we were all PC-based and had it running for win32 clients for the entire development. But as far as the licensing for the consoles and stuff, it was pretty much always going to be a Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 title.
"To the best of my recollection, we never even seriously talked about optimizing it for PC."
