The PC port of Rockstar Video games’ hit 2010 Wild West epic Crimson Lifeless Redemption lastly dropped on Steam a few days in the past, and to utterly no one’s shock it’s receiving rave critiques.
Alright, effectively, I assume a bit of little bit of shock is so as, as there was at all times the prospect that Rockstar may have tousled the port of a recreation that’s nearly 15 years outdated (*cough* Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Version *cough*).
Crimson Lifeless Redemption is at the moment sitting at a “Very Constructive” rating on Steam as of writing, with 92% of the 2000+ critiques ending up constructive.
It’s additionally at the moment, as in proper now, the 209th recreation with probably the most lively gamers on Steam.
Which may not sound that spectacular on paper, however when you think about the very fact a 14-year-old recreation is thrashing out the likes of Life is Unusual: Double Publicity (a brand new entry in a preferred franchise that dropped on the identical day as Crimson Lifeless Redemption’s PC port) and is just one spot under Starfield (which was in all probability probably the most hyped recreation of 2023 and simply obtained a brand new DLC growth) then… yeah, abruptly much more spectacular.
Additionally, this recreation prices £39.99. That’s nearly the worth of a model new AAA title – and the fanbase was fairly vocal about the truth that the worth was far too excessive for a recreation that got here out in 2010 previous to its launch.
Clearly, it didn’t trouble that many individuals although, if these critiques and gross sales figures are something to go by.
Personally, as a lot as I’d like to leap again into John Marston’s story once more, I’ve bought sufficient new stuff to play in the intervening time so I’m gonna anticipate that value to down a bit of first. Gotta say although, the modding neighborhood is already making the acquisition appear further tempting…
