Recently, Rockstar Games revealed the launch of Red Dead Redemption on PS4 and Switch, along with the Undead Nightmare DLC, in a trailer. Fans don’t seem to accept the fact that there is no remastered version yet for this famous title.

Take-Two Interactive’s CEO has justified the $50 price for the port, but fans aren’t convinced. Although fans aren’t satisfied with the justification, they dearly wanted a reamstered version. And according to them, if it was a remastered version, they were ready to pay more than $50. Furthermore, with the absence of multiplayer mode, many fans already think the game won’t be worth a purchase. What made things even worse for PlayStation fans is that the game has been playable in 4K on Xbox consoles for years thanks to their backward compatibility. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnik said, “That’s just what we believe is the commercially accurate price for it.
