    You mean I can finally play the undead DLC glitch free?

  2. Dragmire927

    Finally, Uncle will have his shot to join Smash Bros

  3. el__carpincho

    wha…are they putting this on anything else, or just the switch?

  4. JayZsAdoptedSon

    $50????? I could see something like $30-40 but this is a straight port and the game regularly goes for under $10 on Xbox

    This is the single weirdest announcement I’ve seen in a looong time.

    Rockstar barely has any presence on Switch. There’s no RDR2 on the console, nor there will ever be for obvious reasons. This is only coming on Switch and PS4, an old console that’s no longer supported, with no XBox or PC version, despite those audiences being desperate for the title. The Switch itself is quite clearly at the end of its lifecycle, meaning this release will not have a lot of traction in terms of sales (though I will definitely buy it). Possibly the weirdest thing is that this is not even a remaster, it’s the old game ported to Switch and PS4 a solid decade after its initial release. All of the above is happening in less than two weeks time with barely any advertising.

    I don’t think anyone ever saw this coming!

    It looks so bad and yet I want it so much.

    Only game I *truly* want is Fallout: New Vegas though.

    For those of us who have never played one of these games, what is it like? Also, what system was it originally from?

  8. Outside_Money_1786

    Played it. I mean like 2 gens ago. It’s cute that nintendo finally has a console with enough processing power to play a game from 2 console gens back. But I would imagine even switch owners have probbaly already played it hell the console and game they play it on would peobbaly cost less than the cost of it on the switch….. So what the point. Literally £1 for skyrim on 360 as well

    Wasn’t expecting that but if it comes with the DLC, it’ll be awesome.

  10. Wasn’t the source of this game an unholy, spit held together abomination?

    Also still no pc port

    Copy and pasted from the r/reddeadredemption sub:

    PSA: This Dumpster fire is a port that is developed by another studio AGAIN. Also not only its a port but a CUT DOWN port, PS and Switch players are getting a lesser version since its missing multiplayer and its 50 Bucks, also no 4K or 60 FPS so yeah the definitive edition is still on XBOX since you get multiplayer and 4K (2K on Series S) and costs alot less. Classic Rockstar Moment

    Are the same folks that did the gta trilogy doing this one? I remember that having a lot of issues at launch.

  13. Big_Green_Piccolo

    Rockstar and rereleasing games from the PS3/360. Name a better combo

  14. Pete_Iredale

    Rockstar can fuck right off, I’m done buying their shit. Stringing along the same couple of games over three generations of consoles while still charging full price is enough.

  15. djkhan23

    I might play it

    Can’t get rdr on a non Xbox or Ps

    Not on the pc

  16. I lowkey prefer RDR to RDR2.

    If y’all haven’t played it before, it’s really good.

  17. CombatConrad

    Rock Star laughing to the bank. Next they will re-release this on PS5 for full original MSRP.

  18. AverageJun

    Digital only or physical?

    Also what’s the price?

  19. gamecatz

    I don’t care who isn’t looking forward to this.

    I for one am.

  20. ChairmanReagan

    Yeah I’m gonna pass after the absolute dog shit GTA games. Fool me once.

  21. Browngeneration7

    Well it’s 13 years old. I would have been excited before Xbox made it backwards compatible. Hard pass for me.

  22. Ok-Leave3121

    If this’ll get a port I hope Marvel vs Capcom Ultimate 3, Hi Fi Rush, and PokePark 1 and 2 get a Switch port

  23. Explorer_Entity

    uuhhhhh??

    But we can’t get a patch to simply give RDR2 60fps for PS5/XB?

  24. Salt-Zone

    It’s great that it’s coming to switch. Very exciting. But… $50 for a 10 year old game port?? Nintendo themselves didn’t even charge that much for a Metroid Prime REMASTER.

    This is just a port, not even a remaster. No PS5 version either? Just. Very disappointed.

  25. luckyvonstreetz

    I doubt rockstar put any real effort in making this game run and look as good as possible on the switch. Probably just a low cost port but they charge 50 bucks for it.

  26. Sea-Ad-1660

    Will buy when it’s on sale and if impressions are good.

  27. Grapefruit331

    Pretty excited, just gonna have to wait until a hard price drop
