Red Dead Redemption re-release pre-order guide

Rockstar announced this earlier this month Red Dead Redemption comes to the Nintendo switch And PS4 digital shop windows on August 17. The $49.99 digital version of the title includes the campaign and the fantastic Undead nightmare expansion, in addition to all the bonus content seen in the original “Game of the Year” edition for Xbox 360 and PS3 (omitting multiplayer content, which is no longer in this game). A physical version is scheduled for October 13.

While this launch would have been a great opportunity to give the 13-year-old title some graphical improvements, it appears to be the same game (a great game, mind you) that we got on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. However, the re-release adds support for several new languages, including Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Korean, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, and Latin American Spanish. If you buy the PS4 version, it will be backwards compatible on PS5.

There are currently no pre-order bonuses or other incentives for pre-ordering a digital copy. However, that may change as we get closer to the physical launch date. And of course we will keep this page up-to-date with any additional news as it becomes available.
