There is plenty of anticipation over Rockstar Games making a Red Dead Redemption remake or remastered edition reveal. But so far, that has yet to happen. With that said, Rockstar Games did make a surprise announcement regarding the iconic Western shooter. It looks like the game is receiving port releases for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch platforms. Before you get too excited, this is not the big remake or remastered, as mentioned. So we’re uncertain if this is another project being worked on or if all the hype and supposed leaks were just related to this port reveal.

Red Dead Redemption is confirmed to be landing on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 this August 17, 2023. This is the original version of the game, and it will set players back $49.99. But if you enjoyed Red Dead Redemption 2 and never had the chance to go back and play the first installment, then you at least have a few more platforms available. This comes from the development team Double Eleven Studios, and alongside the base game, you’ll also gain the Undead Nightmare expansion. It’s worth noting that the official press release from Rockstar Games reveals that this release will land on the digital shops on August 17, 2023.
