Rockstar Games’ recently announced re-release of 2010’s Red Dead Redemption is officially available on Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and Nintendo Switch 2 for $49.99. It’s included with PlayStation Plus Extra/Deluxe and GTA+, but if you own it on PS4 or Switch 1, then it’s a free upgrade. This even supports the backwards-compatible Xbox One digital version.
So what can you expect with the third re-release of the classic thus far? You can check out our feature for more details, but long story short, it offers 4K and 60 FPS on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, alongside improved image quality. The Switch 2 version includes 60 FPS and DLSS support with mouse controls, which is a nice bonus. All three editions support high dynamic range (HDR) for more realistic brightness.
Of course, cross-save is also supported on PlayStation and Switch, so you can continue wherever you left off on PS5 and Switch 2 (jury’s out on whether Xbox supports the same). If you’re a Netflix subscriber, then you can play the game for free on iOS and Android.
If you’re curious about the re-release (and why it pales in comparison to the Game of the Year Edition), check out our reviews for the PS4, Switch and PC versions. In the meantime, the wait for a current-gen upgrade to Red Dead Redemption 2 continues.
