Rockstar Games will release Red Dead Redemption for the Switch and PlayStation 4 later this month. The news from the developer’s official website indicates the base game and Undead Nightmare are coming on August 17.
Here’s the official press release: “One of the most critically acclaimed games of all time with over 170 Game of the Year Awards, Red Dead Redemption tells the story of former outlaw John Marston as he journeys across the sprawling expanses of the American West and Mexico to track down the last remaining members of the notorious Van der Linde Gang in a bid to save his family. Relive, or experience for the first time, the events immediately following the epic tale of honour and loyalty in the 2018 blockbuster Red Dead Redemption 2 as Marston hunts down his former friends and outlaws Bill Williamson, Javier Escuella, and his former gang leader, Dutch van der Linde as the era of the cowboy comes to its end.”
Double Eleven Studios is working on the port, and the package brings two experiences, including the story of John Marston and the expansion where he fights the zombie hordes while looking for a cure.
Both games include the single-player experience plus support for Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Korean, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, and Latin American Spanish.
Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare will be $49.99 USD/$69.99 CAD on the Nintendo Switch eShop and PlayStation Store, with physical releases arriving on October 13.
