Wow.
Almost three years into a new console generation, but let’s port it to a 10 year-old console instead.
Well, switch means easy PC play via Yuzu/Ryujinx!
where pc version :( well, switch emulation is pretty good now I guess…
IIRC, RDR2 came to PC about a year after console so there is hope.
Why wait to play on a switch emulator when you can play it on an Xbox 360 emulator now? (Xenia Canary)

The Switch should run it fine, it’s about as powerful as the consoles the game originally came out on.
Lazy port, premium price. Typical Rockstar.
Switch Users - This is amazing, will be able to play Red Dead Redemption on the go
PS5 Users - a 10 year old game, with no fps boost, no graphics boost, for £50? **** Off R*
PC Users - 💀
Yeah, it’s already have a port to PC, is called Canary edition
True, I just wished Rockstar didn’t treat PC gamers like second class citizens.
I’m sure yuzu and/or ryujinx will do fine
This port is like two to three years too late. Playing AAA games from over a decade ago on the go is not as interesting as it used to be on switch.
This is really disappointing.
Since RDR2 is a prequel, I wonder how many people out there played through 2’s story, and then just wanted to see the grim, slow turnout to the story of that gang. It IS kinda surprising it was never available on PS4 - a lot of PS360 games got “silent ports” that just never got much advertising.
Someone shared this in a Discord server I’m in:
Take-Two Chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick: “…we don’t just port titles over, we actually take the time to do the very best job we can making the title different for the new release, for the new technology that we’re launching it on.” https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/rockstar-owner-discusses-remasters-strategy-says-its-not-interested-in-simple-ports/ [2021]
I guess that memo got lost.
They also managed to botch the GTA trilogy remaster though, so I don’t know what to think of this.
Double Eleven worked on Fallout 76 & Crackdown 3. RIP Rockstar.
Great…
When can we play Zelda on PC?
Fuck Nintendo getting ports handed to them and giving zero back.
