    Red Dead Redemption was a great game when it came out in 2010, and this proves it’s still a great game in 2023. While some classics from previous generations feel dated, that’s certainly not the case here – and if you missed it (or weren’t around for it) thirteen years ago, now’s the time to finally play it. And if you did play it? Maybe it’s time to play it again.

    Despite its lack of new features and the absence of its online mode, Red Dead Redemption remains a timeless masterpiece that any gamer has to try, now more conveniently than ever thanks to Nintendo Switch's portable mode.

    If you’ve already played or own Red Dead Redemption on Xbox Series X or Xbox One X, I only really recommend it on Switch for portable play. If you’ve never played it before and own a Switch, I love this release. The lack of gyro aiming is disappointing, but everything else is better than I expected given this is Red Dead Redemption‘s first ever re-release. Hopefully gyro can be added in so that this becomes my favorite way to experience Red Dead Redemption until a potential PC version releases.

    Red Dead Redemption is really enjoyable on PS4 and Nintendo Switch. After thirteen years, the Rockstar classic holds up like no other, and these adjustments are more than enough for a very satisfying experience. Many of us would have liked something more, but for both nostalgic and new fans of the saga, this port is a fantastic opportunity to get into the boots of John Marston.

    The silver lining here is that now the game is finally freed from the cage of old hardware. And that's a great thing.

    Red Dead Redemption on the Switch is the exact same Western epic you know and love. That’s both its greatest strength and its greatest weakness.

    If you were hoping for a more robust re-release, sadly, this isn’t that. It’s hard to tell if Rockstar will ever put in the time and money needed to do justice to a Red Dead re-release. But even if they don’t, at least we now have the original classic playable on all modern consoles.

    Pretty much all the negative reviews are from PC Players who are just salty. This looks and plays perfectly on Switch. The gameplay stillPretty much all the negative reviews are from PC Players who are just salty. This looks and plays perfectly on Switch. The gameplay still holds up really well and its easy to sink hours into it. The controls feel great, load times are very fast. I never played the online mode so don't know what I am missing by it not being here but Red Dead Online is boring and if that's considered to be the upgrade from the original then I couldn't care less about it being absent.… Expand

    $50? You should be paying ME to play this ancient port.
    These companies are cashing out consumer trust and loyalty. It's time we stop helping them.

    On of the best PS3 games, and, unfortunately, one of the worst products on PS4.

    $50 for a 13 years old game.
    And it's not even a remake or a remaster.
    Rockstar is well on its way to becoming the new EA.
