Red Dead Redemption will be available for download on Android and iOS devices through Netflix Games, the company said in a press release. Netflix subscribers can use it without any ads or in-app purchases. The open-world action-adventure game has received several free upgrades and enhancements not only on mobile devices, but also on current-generation consoles.
According to the company, it will also come bundled with Undead Nightmare DLC and bonus content from the Game of the Year Edition. Players can also carry over save content from previous generation consoles. Rockstar says the game will feature mobile-friendly controls and a performance mode that unlocks higher frame rates on certain devices.
Red Dead Redemption originally released on PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2010, with players taking on the role of John Marston, a gunslinger and former outlaw who has now settled down with his family after leaving the notorious gang led by Dutch van der Linde. When his family is captured and held hostage by the Pinkerton Detective Agency, Marston is forced to arrest or kill the gang he once called friends at their behest.
Meanwhile, Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare is a standalone expansion to the original game, in which Marston must travel through a world ravaged by a deadly zombie plague. Amid the chaos and mayhem, the former outlaw battles the crazed zombie hordes that have taken over America’s border towns and outposts in search of a cure.
According to Rockstar Games, owners of Red Dead Redemption on previous generation consoles can digitally upgrade to the latest version for free. The current version offers several enhancements, including enhanced image quality, HDR support, and resolutions up to 4K. In addition, the Switch 2 version of the game will support HDR, DLSS, and mouse control using Joy-Con 2 controllers.
In addition to Netflix, the epic western is now available in the GTA+ game library and PS Plus game catalog.
