About this deal

Red Dead Redemption for the Switch is an entirely adequate port. Sure, that might sound underwhelming. But to understand how important that achievement truly is, it’s worth reflecting on the effects of an underperforming port. Issues like frame lag, texture issues, and lengthy loading screens could totally compromise this cinematic gaming experience. It’s something that subtly sours the impressions of an otherwise excellent game for new and legacy players alike. Red Dead Redemption review IGN 's Brudvig identified that Red Dead Redemption 's narrative themes reflected modern society, including racism, government power, and immigration; [30] Will Tuttle of GameSpy found that they occasionally felt "preachy", but were typically more nuanced than expected. [136] Mike Channell of Official Xbox Magazine ( OXM) considered the death of the Wild West a pressure that loomed over the narrative. [140] Matt Bertz of Game Informer felt that the narrative momentum suffered from the length of the missions in Mexico, but praised the game's ending for using a "sense of immersiveness only a video game can impart". [12] IGN 's Brudvig similarly lauded the game's climax as one of the best in gaming. [30] Herring of GamePro was surprised by the likability of John Marston, describing him as "one of the more sympathetic antiheroes in recent memory". [9] He also felt that, despite being based on caricatures of Spaghetti Western films, the game's secondary characters were "interesting enough that they never feel contrived"; [9] conversely, Paste reviewer Kirk Hamilton opined that the "clichéd and unlikeable" supporting characters undermined the narrative. [141] GameSpot 's Justin Calvert applauded the detail of the "deeply flawed but very likable" Marston, noting that his scars and outfit made him feel more believable. [8] Brudvig of IGN wrote that Marston's motivations were occasionally confusing and felt alienated from the narrative. [30] The song "Far Away" by José González plays as Marston enters Mexico in a scene described by critics as "perfect" and "beautiful". [142] [143] Gordon-Douglas, Christopher (June 2, 2010).

Recently, rumors have suggested Red Dead Redemption 2 could become available on the newest home console generation with an update for the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, similar to Grand Theft Auto 5's March update that enhanced graphics and added new features. While the possibility of experiencing Red Dead Redemption 2 on new generation consoles is exciting, Nintendo Switch gamers may also be wondering when it will be possible to roam the Old West as Arthur Morgan - and the answer may be just around the corner.

The main issues come with the shimmer – the sort of jagged white artefacts that appear on foliage or buildings. This has something to do with anti-aliasing, which is unadjustable on Switch, so any straight-edged buildings or busy trees just sparkle in the distance. At first, it’s incredibly distracting, but after about ten hours with the Switch port, I barely notice it anymore. Sarkar, Samit (November 30, 2016).
