What is Red Dead Redemption?

For those of you who are new to the world of Red Dead Redemption, it’s a phenomenal Western adventure from Rockstar Games that follows former outlaw John Marston as he sets out on a journey to track down members of his old gang. Back when it was originally released, we gave the game a 9.7 out of 10 in our review and stated that “Rockstar has taken the Western to new heights and created one of the deepest, most fun, and most gorgeous games around. […] Red Dead Redemption is a complete game in every sense — both the single player and multiplayer modes are excellent — and still manages to offer an attention to detail you rarely see from a game of this scope.”

Alongside the announcement of the Switch port, this re-release of Red Dead Redemption will also be making its way to PS4 with PS5 backwards compatibility supported. It’s set to run for the same price on PlayStation of $49.99 as the Switch port above, too.
