The original Red Dead Redemption was released back in 2010 and was an instant hit. It revolutionized the "Wild West" genre of video games and inspired countless open-world RPGs. RDR was released on PlayStation and Xbox. In 2023, it was ported to Nintendo Switch. Yet, even after 14 years, there hasn't been an official PC port for this title.
However, the community never lost hope. News of a potential PC port first emerged when a data miner leaked an Epic Games database that not only hinted at a potential PC version but also revealed the file size of the Red Dead Redemption PC port.
The community has speculated that the price of this potential PC port will be between $40 to $60. That said, some fans think this is a little too expensive for a 14-year-old game.
