Rockstar Games has announced that they will be releasing Red Dead Redemption on December 2 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, iOS, and Android. Players who already have the game, but on their PlayStation 4, Switch, and Xbox One, can upgrade to the new version for free.

The game’s PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 versions will be available through the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog on the same day that it will be released. For players who use iOS and Android devices for gaming, Red Dead Redemption will be playable for free as long as they are subscribed to Netflix.

Here is an overview of the new version of Red Dead Redemption, as per Rockstar Games:

About

Step into the events immediately following the blockbuster Red Dead Redemption 2, in the critically acclaimed tale of John Marston’s journey to bury his blood-stained past. In its zombie-horror companion “Undead Nightmare,” fight to find a cure for the zombie plague that has overrun the frontier. All these new versions feature the complete single-player experiences of both games, and also include bonus content from the Game of the Year Edition.

Coming to Netflix and Mobile

More players than ever before will be able to experience these classics and take Marston’s journey with them wherever they go with Red Dead Redemption‘s debut on compatible iOS and Android devices—which includes mobile-friendly control options. Netflix members will also be able to download and play these versions on December 2 as part of their subscription.

Updates and Enhancements for Current Consoles

Players on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S can look forward to a smooth 60 frames per second experience, enhanced image quality, HDR support, and resolutions up to 4K. On Switch 2, we’ve taken full advantage of this new hardware with support for DLSS, HDR, mouse controls, and the same fluid 60 frames per second gameplay at high resolution.

Free Upgrades on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Switch 2

Current owners on PlayStation 4, Switch, or the digital backward compatible version on Xbox One will be able to upgrade digitally for free. Anyone who owns the PlayStation 4 version can utilize previous PlayStation 4 save data to pick up where they left off, and Switch 2 players can continue with their previous save data from the previous Switch console.

These new console versions—created in collaboration with Double Eleven and Cast Iron Games—will also be available in the GTA+ Games Library and the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog on December 2.
