Red Dead Redemption release date for Switch & PS4: When is port coming?
radiotimes.comRockstar has revealed that Red Dead Redemption is making its way to Nintendo Switch and PS4: A release date has been confirmed and, best of all, it’s set to launch soon — very soon!
A Red Dead Redemption remake has been rumoured for a while now, with online sleuths spotting new trademarks and mention of new consoles on official online documents.
Now, it has been confirmed that the Xbox 360 and PS3 classic is indeed launching on modern platforms.
This isn’t the remake of the rumours, however — more on that below — and is instead a port developed by Double Eleven Studios that brings the cowboy game to Nintendo for the first time.
Sadly, there appears to be no such release on PC, where the game still remains unplayable. You can pick it up on Xbox via backwards compatibility — £19.99 on GAME.
Read on to find out when the Red Dead Redemption release date for Switch and PS4 along with what’s included in the new version of the seminal Rockstar cowboy epic.
The Red Dead Redemption release date on Switch is Thursday 17th August, as confirmed by Rockstar. This is the release date on eShop, anyway.
If you’re after a physical copy of the game, you’ll have to wait until 13th October. It’ll cost £39.99 on the eShop; prices may vary for the physical edition.
As of writing, pre-orders for both digital and physical editions of the game on Switch are not available. You can, though, wishlist Red Dead Redemption on the eShop. The Switch version can be seen in action via the tweet from Nintendo UK below:
