Hold onto your hats, gamers! The legendary Western adventure, Red Dead Redemption, along with its fan-favorite zombie-slaying companion, Undead Nightmare, is galloping onto the latest consoles and mobile devices on December 2nd. This isn’t just a re-release; it’s a loaded new package with major performance boosts and a massive expansion of accessibility!
🔥 What’s Included? The Complete John Marston Saga

✅ Free Upgrades & Save Transfers Confirmed!
Rockstar is looking out for its veteran cowboys! If you already own a digital version of the game, you’re in luck:
- Free Digital Upgrade: Current owners on PS4, Nintendo Switch, or the digital backward-compatible version on Xbox One will receive a free digital upgrade to the enhanced version on their respective current-gen consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X|S, or Switch 2).
- Keep Your Progress: You can carry over your previous save data! PS4 save data transfers to PS5, and original Switch save data carries over to Switch 2. No need to re-ride the trail!
These updated versions, developed in collaboration with Double Eleven and Cast Iron Games, will also be available on December 2nd in the GTA+ Games Library and the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog.
