On December 2, the western Red Dead Redemption, along with the zombie add-on Undead Nightmare, is released on modern consoles and officially appears on smartphones for the first time, with free updates for owners of previous versions and save transfers.
As Rockstar Games announced in an official announcement, the new editions of Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare will be available on iOS, Android, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as in the Netflix Games catalog, where subscribers will be able to download the game as part of their subscription.
Players are promised the full single-player campaigns of both games and all the bonus content of the Game of the Year edition. On PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, the project will run at a stable 60 frames per second, improved image quality, HDR, and support for resolutions up to 4K. On Switch 2, the developers are taking advantage of the new hardware, adding DLSS, HDR, a mouse, and the same smooth 60 fps in high resolution.
Owners of Red Dead Redemption on PS4, the original Nintendo Switch, or the digital backward compatible version on Xbox One will receive an update to the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2 versions at no additional cost. PS5 will be able to continue playing with saves from PS4, while Switch 2 owners will be able to pull up data from their previous Nintendo console. The mobile port for iOS and Android will have adapted controls and will be available for download to all users with an active Netflix subscription.
Updated versions of Red Dead Redemption will also appear in the GTA+ Games Library and the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog, so even those who have not previously purchased the game will be able to join the story of John Marston. For Ukrainian gamers, this is a chance to legally play one of the key westerns in the history of the industry on modern consoles and smartphones, and for Rockstar, it is a way to reboot the 2010 classic for a new generation of audiences.
