Release Date: May 18, 2010
An open-world TPP action adventure game set during the Wild West period. In Red Dead Redemption we play as John Marston, forced by the government agents to go after the of Dutch van der Linde's gang. The game offers plenty of side activities, like hunting or gambling.
Red Dead Redemption is an action adventure game with a western setting. Its previous part, Red Dead Revolver, was released in 2004 for Xbox and PlayStation 2. This installment of the series is not a continuation in any way, but a separate story set in a completely different period. The game was created by Rockstar studio, which we associate primarily with the Grand Theft Auto series.
In 2018 the game also received an extremely warmly received prequel, titled Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare, maintained in a slightly comedic horror atmosphere.
We play the role of a former gang member, John Marston, who must find his place in the rapidly changing world of the Wild West entering the 20th century. On the prairie, government representatives are appearing more frequently, followed by the first signs of industrialization. The time of freedom and lawlessness is ing irrevocably. John Marston tries to lead an honest life, but his past won't let him forget. Government agents make him an offer he can't refuse: if John ever wants to see his wife Abigail and son Jack again, he will have to track down and kill his former companions from the infamous Dutch van der Linde gang.
The creators have prepared a truly epic story set in the classic western convention. The whole story tells about the end of the extraordinary era of the Wild West and the last days of great gunslingers.
During the game we learn the nuances of a complex plot, full of side stories and additional quests. Many missions are based on characteristic scenes from cult Wild West movies, so we often take part in spectacular duels or chases after a speeding stagecoach. Individual missions are available in various regions of the vast, open world, offering a high degree of freedom. We can visit many smaller, characteristic towns, vast areas of prairie full of wild nature and animals, and mountain ranges with narrow es.
During the game we often have to use revolvers attached to our belts - this world is full of various dangers, including other people. However, we don't have to shoot at every person we encounter right away. The virtual Wild West is inhabited by a multitude of charismatic individuals with whom it's worth exchanging a few words. Apart from that, we can deal with more mundane things, like hunting or gambling.
The PC version of Red Dead Redemption s HDR10 technology, Nvidia DLSS 3.7 and AMD FSR 3.0, as well as Nvidia DLSS Frame Generation. It s 4K resolution and a refresh rate of 144 Hz. It can also be played on ultrawide monitors (with screen ratios of 21:9 and 32:9).

Cubed3: 7 / 10 by Albert Lichi
Despite its gameplay flaws, Red Dead Redemption is a classic on seventh gen consoles. Its well-crafted characters and script are among the era's best. It's a technological marvel with meticulous attention to detail. While the gameplay may require adaptation on the player's part, it's worth it because Red Dead Redemption's overall experience is greater than the sum of its individual parts.
Press Start: 7.5 / 10 by Steven Impson
The Switch port of Red Dead Redemption is a faithful way to get into the world of Red Dead. It looks good as long as you adjust expectations and consider the game's age, and performs consistently well in both handheld and docked modes. While many aspects will feel dated, I still had a fun time exploring the old west with John during the last gasps of the American frontier.
GamingBolt: 7 / 10 by Pramath
It's disappointing that Rockstar has not accorded Red Dead Redemption the respect it deserves, but for now, at least the game is playable on all modern consoles. The Switch version is particularly recommended if you have never played the game before, or want to revisit it in the portable format.
