Red Dead Redemption Port Comparison: Xbox vs PlayStation

In a recent development, Rockstar’s new Red Dead Redemption port has been released on PlayStation 4, allowing for a direct comparison between the Xbox backwards compatible edition and the new PlayStation version. The result? It seems that both releases are quite similar, with no major differences that would warrant purchasing the new version.

A comprehensive breakdown, available in the linked video, examines each version of Rockstar’s Western classic. While there are certain scenes where each version might have a slight advantage, overall the Xbox and PlayStation versions are comparable. The video also includes footage of the older versions and the Nintendo Switch edition.

It is worth noting that Rockstar’s announcement of this port has stirred up controversy due to its price point and lack of significant upgrades over the existing Xbox copy. However, Xbox users can take comfort in the fact that they do not need to purchase the new version, as the old 360 version holds up quite well.

Although many fans would have loved to see a more enhanced edition of this beloved classic, it appears that this will be the standard for Red Dead Redemption in the foreseeable future. Only time will tell if Rockstar decides to revisit and improve upon this port.
