Red Dead Redemption coming to PS4 and Nintendo Switch later this month

Rockstar Games has just announced that Red Dead Redemption is making its way on to newer consoles for the first time: PS4 and Switch.

Originally released in 2010 for the PS3 and Xbox 360, rumours of a remaster have been bubbling for a while, following reports of its development. Last month, a new rating for Red Dead Redemption was spotted, which kept hopes alive.

The release on PS4 and Switch isn’t a remaster unfortunately – Rockstar has called it a “conversion” produced by Double Eleven Studios, which has quite a bit of experience in porting games to modern consoles.

The PS4 and Switch versions of Red Dead Redemption will also include the Undead Nightmare expansion pack, which is set in an alternate universe where protagonist John Marston is more worried about running from zombies than running from the law.
