- Red Dead Redemption is finally coming to PC later this month.
- While the official price hasn’t been disclosed yet, an EGS database suggests that it may cost $50 at launch.
- Red Dead Redemption was released with the same price tag last year on Switch & PS4.
Finally, after months of leaks and rumours, Rockstar Games has recently confirmed that Red Dead Redemption will finally be coming to PC later this month after 14 years of wait.
While not much has been revealed about the PC port, it has been confirmed to be coming with the Undead Nightmare expansion. The price of the title has not yet been officially announced, but according to the EGS Database, Red Dead Redemption will cost around $50.
Why it matters: Not too long ago, Take-Two stated that it’s a decent price tag, even for the 14-year-old title. Therefore, the listing price may be accurate.
EGS data updated its Red Dead Redemption page just today. According to the site, the title may cost around $50 on the PC.
Just last year, the title was released for PS4 and Nintendo Switch with the same price tag, which caused furious reactions from the fans. Many believed $50 for a 13-year-old title didn’t make much sense.
However, the Take-Two CEO stated that he doesn’t see what’s wrong with the price as it’s the commercially accurate price for the title they could think of. So, it’s likely that the game will be released with the same price tag on the PC.
Red Dead Redemption is asking for higher-end PC hardware even than its predecessor, which has raised some eyebrows for poor optimization port, but we hope that is not the case here.
It’s best to take all of this news with a grain of salt as nothing has been officially announced by the developers yet. Therefore, it’s best to wait for an official confirmation regarding the title’s price.
Nonetheless, PC fans have waited over a decade to play Red Dead Redemption on PC, but this price tag still might not sit well with them.
