\nReactions to Rockstar’s recently announced PS4 and Switch port<\/a> of open-world cowboy classic Red Dead Redemption have been mixed to say the least<\/a>, with its \u00a340\/$30 USD price point coming in for particular criticism. However, Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Rockstar parent company Take-Two has now insisted that price is “commercially accurate”.\n<\/p>\n

\nThose unhappy with the Red Dead Redemption port’s price tag have noted this re-release is missing the multiplayer mode included in the original, now 13-year-old game, and fails to take advantage of the modern technology it’s running on. It doesn’t help, either, that the Xbox 360 version, which is playable on Xbox One and Series X\/S via backward compatibility, can currently be purchased digitally for \u00a330<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

\nSpeaking to IGN<\/a>, however, Take-Two CEO Zelnick has brushed off complaints, insisting, “That’s just what we believe is the commercially accurate price for it”. He also noted the inclusion of Undead Nightmare in the Switch and PS4 port, calling the zombie-themed DLC a “great standalone game in its own right when it was originally released, so we feel like it’s a great bundle for the first time, and certainly a great value for consumers.”\n<\/p>\n
