Take-Two Has Six Remakes and Remasters in Development

Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick revealed the publisher currently has six remakes and remasters in development. He indicated those projects could originate at Rockstar Games, Gearbox or other studios within Take-Two’s portfolio.

Zelnick did not name specific titles. Industry rumors point to remakes of the first two Max Payne games, additional work related to Max Payne 3, and remakes in the Mafia series. A long-running rumor also names a Red Dead Redemption 2 port for the Nintendo Switch 2. Take-Two has not confirmed any of those reports.

Remakes and remasters update older games for modern hardware. Updates can range from rebuilt graphics and reworked gameplay systems to performance and visual improvements.

Take-Two provided no release windows, development studio assignments, budgets or platform targets for the six projects. The company owns Rockstar and Gearbox, among other studios, which gives it a large catalog of titles that could be subject to refreshes.

Only the total count of six projects has been disclosed by the CEO. Further details will depend on future announcements from Take-Two or its development teams.
