Red Dead Redemption’s PC Debut Took Too Long to Arrive
Now that a lot of console games are making their way to PC, Steam has multiple newly added renowned titles. Almost every time, fans seem to be excited about it. However, the reactions of PC gamers regarding the PC port of Red Dead Redemption state that Rockstar took too much time to bring it on PC.
Since the announcement came, it appears that players have been more willing to know about GTA 6.
Some gamers even asked about the Red Dead Redemption 2 PS5 and Xbox Series X versions, completely ignoring the upcoming one.
Some players even went completely off-track to ask if it shows that they need to wait 14 years to get Bloodborne as well.
Some players even got upset for getting this one and not Midnight Club: Los Angeles.
It looks like the prolonged waiting period has killed the boiling excitement of getting the game on PC.
Additionally, the PC port of Red Dead Redemption will cost players $49.99 on Steam and Epic Games Store.
