Free Roam events are an easy way to jump into the action to grab XP and cash, and can be played individually or in skirmishes. These include Competitive challenges, Fool’s gold, Cold Dead Hands, Dispatch Rider, King of the Castle, Master Archer, and coming in June, Railroad Baron. There are also a number of Showdown series modes, as well as Ra

There are currently 600 titles that are backwards compatible with the Xbox One console from both the Xbox 360 and original Xbox, however the company announced that every single title released on the Xbox One platform will be backwards compatible on Scarlett. In the video, it failed to go into details on what Xbox and Xbox 360 titles would be available on backwards compatibility in the next-generation. Fans are still eager to find out if all games or a limited amount of games will be included in Scarlett's backwards compatibility features, but it seems that the company are not revealing any of those details as of

A physical edition of the catalogue included Nintendo’s console alongside the Playstation 4 and Xbox One on the list of compatible gaming machines, and fans seem to think this may indicate an upcoming announcement on the part of either Nintendo or Rockstar. There may be some credibility to these claims; Walmart Canada infamously let slip that Bethesda’s Rage 2 and Gearbox Software’s Borderlands 3 were forthcoming well in advance of their official announcements, and this could be yet another example of a retailer jumping the

Spoils of War is a team-based mode for up to sixteen players (just two can play, but that’s far less dramatic). While wild west-style gunfights are always fun and dramatic, the action here is a little more cerebral than your average straightforward deathma

"Griefing," or harassing players by killing them and generally being a criminal (which fits the theme, at least) is another poignant problem. After being killed four times, a "parley" or "feud" option appears, with the intent to either talk out your differences or go at each other, guns blazing. Many players are finding that option inefficient, as if someone wants to troll, they're going to troll. There is no option to abstain from player vs. player com

Unfortunately, Target has since corrected their Red Dead Redemption 2 listing on their website to state that it would only be available for the PS4 and Xbox One. This likely means that any mention of the Switch alongside Rockstar’s game was a simple error, though it’s worth noting that other titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and Battlefield V were correctly listed in the magaz

"Absolutely. We’d love for it to be there. But again — and this is where there needs to be an understanding of just the development process — Red Dead has been in development for years, time that predated any communication of Nintendo Switch. So, from the developer’s mentality, they need to move forward and finish the game they’ve been working on and then be in a position to look at other opportuniti

The latest update aims to fix this, allowing players to parley after only one death, among other changes, but killing someone first in self-defense currently marks you as a hostile target, painting your icon red on the map and letting other players know you're not to be trusted. According to a report by Eurogamer , " The cause of this aggression is partly because it's so easy to kill: why take the chance someone else will shoot you when you can shoot them firs

Rumors of an upcoming Switch port of Rockstar’s recently-released Red Dead Redemption 2 were all but put to rest a few months ago when the now-retired Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime announced in an interview with Hollywood Reporter that the game wouldn’t be making an appearance on the hybrid gaming machine. Though his statements seemed pretty finite at the time, speculation concerning RDR2 on the Switch has once again stirred thanks to an Australian Target shopping catalog

Red Dead Redemption 2 's online beta officially released on November 27th (with a steady stream of access depending on when you bought the game and which edition you purchased), and Reddeadwildland.com after having months of bugs, economic woes, and users abusing the system, the latest update has rolled out, but users say it fails to fix many of the game's issues such as griefing and a broken econ

The kicker here seems to be that, while audiences would no doubt be extremely receptive to a Switch translation of the record-setting game, it might not be all that feasible. While AAA titles like 2016’s Doom and Wolfenstein II: The New Collossus have received Switch ports, games as visually detailed and ambitious as RDR2 are few and far between on the system. It may be true that Nintendo managed to cram something as expansive and marvelous as Breath of the Wild onto a Switch cartridge, but the fact remains that, were Rockstar’s game to come to the console, it would likely come with more than a few caveats and restricti
