Prior to Red Dead Redemption’s Nintendo Switch 2 update next month, Amazon is providing a markdown on the recently launched physical edition for Switch. Rockstar Games released a new budget-friendly $30 version in September, and presently you can acquire a copy of Red Dead Redemption for $25 during Amazon’s early Black Friday video game promotion.
The physical edition of Red Dead Redemption for Switch encompasses the entire game along with the Undead Nightmare expansion on the cartridge. The Switch 2 update will launch on December 2 and is complimentary for purchasers of the Switch edition. The digital version still retails for $50, enabling you to save 50% by obtaining the physical edition instead. Amazon’s early Black Friday event also features the Switch port of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition for $20 (formerly $30).
Red Dead Redemption for Nintendo Switch
$25 (was $30)
The Switch 2 update for Red Dead Redemption will provide 60fps along with improved visuals featuring HDR and DLSS. Players on Switch 2 will also be capable of experiencing Red Dead Redemption with Joy-Con 2 mouse controls.
If you’re purchasing RDR for the original Switch, it’s worth noting that it remains an impressive adaptation from a technical standpoint. It operates at a steady 30fps in both handheld and docked configurations with resolutions of 720p and 1080p, respectively.
Red Dead Redemption is a spaghetti western that encapsulates the legendary allure of being a cowboy. The game adheres closely to the open-world framework that Rockstar honed in its earlier GTA titles. Players enjoy the liberty to explore, create mayhem, and pursue missions assigned by a vast array of unforgettable characters.
John Marston’s odyssey across the vast territories of the American Wild West and Mexico to lay his blood-stained history to rest and safeguard his family is truly unforgettable.
Accompanying the main game, this version of RDR includes Undead Nightmare, a horror-oriented expedition wherein the environment around you has been altered
into a post-apocalyptic environment teeming with zombies. Undead Nightmare was initially launched as an independent expansion, but nowadays it’s included with the primary game on contemporary platforms.
Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy for Nintendo Switch
$20 (previously $30)
If you’re also interested in navigating the urban avenues of the present day, take a look at Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition for merely $20 (originally $30). This compilation remains at $60 on the eShop, but Rockstar issued the physical edition a few months prior with an affordable MSRP.
Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy combines three classics from the PS2 era: GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas. The Definitive Edition premiered in less-than-ideal condition, yet all three titles have significantly improved thanks to various updates and a major enhancement last autumn.
When you insert the game card for the first occasion, you will be instructed to download approximately GTA: Vice City from the eShop (about 9GB). San Andreas and GTA III are located on the card. The digital version of the trilogy available on the eShop, for reference, is 25.4GB.
