Saddle up, cowboys! Red Dead Redemption is back on PS4 and Nintendo Switch — but don’t expect a shiny new saddle for this old horse. Rockstar’s latest port is more like a dusty wagon ride through familiar trails than a full-blown remaster.
🎯 What’s New?
🔹 Runs at 1080p on PS4 and Switch
🔹 Hits 4K on PS4 Pro and PS5 (via backward compatibility)
🔹 Locked at 30fps across all consoles — yup, no buttery-smooth 60fps action here
🔹 Comes with all Game of the Year Edition goodies like the Undead Nightmare DLC, plus some bonus weapons and trophies
💰 The Price? A hefty $49.99 / ₹3,639 — for a 13-year-old game with minimal upgrades and no multiplayer.
🧐 The Verdict
Fans are calling this a cash grab, especially since Take-Two once sold a fully remade Mafia with revamped gameplay and a bigger story for just $40. Meanwhile, modders on PC are already running the original RDR at 60fps through the Xenia emulator — for free.
🎬 The Story Still Shines
Despite the controversy, the tale of John Marston tracking down his former gangmates in the heart of the Old West remains a legendary narrative experience. The Honor system, where your actions influence NPC behavior, still holds up as one of gaming’s best morality mechanics.
💬 So, partner — are you grabbing your lasso and riding into Yara one more time, or is this price tag too wild for you?
