Bonaire first made headlines on August 21 after the Australian ratings board IARC refused to classify the Rockstar project due to the inclusion of violence and sexual content. On August 30, a leaker claimed to know what the mystery project is, stating that it was in fact a PC port for Red Dead Redemption 2. But the mystery has since deepened after someone from the Bully 2 subreddit emailed the ratings board directly. What is Project Bonaire? On September 13, Reddit user \u2018AIieNNatioN\u2019 uploaded a screenshot of an email response they\u2019d received from the IARC after they\u2019d inquired after Bonaire back on August 20. \u201cThank you for your email of 20 August 2019 regarding the classification of the computer game Bonaire,\u201d the response read. Interestingly, the reply then went on to state that the classification was made in error: \u201cThe Department has contacted the game developer (Rockstar) who advised that an error was made when completing the IARC questionnaire.

As with all conspiracy theories and rumors, nothing should be taken as the truth until the game developer comes out and confirms it itself. While the PC port for RDR2 is still unconfirmed, it is looking more and more likely.
