Since its initial 2010 launch on PS3 and Xbox 360, Red Dead Redemption has sold over 17.5 million copies. The game has consistently remained one of Rockstar’s top titles, surpassing classics like GTA 3 and GTA: Vice City. In recent years, the game was ported to PS4 and Nintendo Switch in 2023, followed by PC in 2024, and became a huge hit on Steam in late October 2024, where it currently holds a 91% player approval rating.

Technical Enhancements for Current-Gen Players

The new versions bring a host of enhancements tailored to modern hardware. On PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, players can enjoy:

• Enhanced image quality
• HDR support
• Up to 4K resolution
• Smooth 60 FPS gameplay

The Nintendo Switch 2 version will also run at 60 FPS, supporting HDR, DLSS, and mouse controls, taking full advantage of the hybrid console’s unique capabilities.

Red Dead Redemption Free Upgrades & Save Transfer

Fans who already own the game on previous platforms are in for a treat. Players on PS4, Nintendo Switch, or the digital backward-compatible Xbox One version can upgrade for free.

• PS4 players can carry over save data to PS5.
• Nintendo Switch players can continue their progress on Switch 2.
• Undead Nightmare also receives the same upgrades as the base game.

These upgraded versions are developed in collaboration with Double Eleven and Cast Iron Games. They will also be available through the “GTA+ Games Library” and “PlayStation Plus Game Catalog” starting December 2.
