Rockstar Games finally unveiled its plans for Red Dead Redemption 1, following website updates and rumors that seemed to be leading to a remaster/remake reveal. It was neither of those, with the developer announcing a re-release for Nintendo Switch and PS4. Along with the base game and Undead Nightmare expansion, it includes bonus content from the Game of the Year Edition.
Comedy Shooter High on Life Surprise-Launches on PS4 and PS5

Talking gun comedy shooter High on Life has launched on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 after seven months’ of console exclusivity on Xbox.
Developer Squanch Games made the surprise announcement during San Diego Comic-Con 2023. “The fans have spoken. And spoken. And spoken,” said studio director Mike Fridley. “We’ve been thrilled with High On Life’s reception since it launched in December. Our PlayStation fans have been slightly less thrilled, which is why we’re so excited to share that it’s coming their way very soon. Like now soon! Thank you for your patience!”
IGN gave High on Life 8/10 in its review: “High on Life is a laugh-out-loud funny space odyssey that’s chaotic, bizarre, and a ton of fun,” we said. It was a smash hit, and, with the help of a day-one launch on Game Pass, hit more than 7.5 million players. High on Life was also the biggest Xbox Game Pass release of 2022, the biggest third-party launch in Game Pass history, and the biggest single-player game launch on Game Pass ever.
Squanch recently announced the first DLC update, High on Knife, which introduces a brand-new talking gun character, Harper, voiced by Sarah Sherman (Saturday Night Live) and a goopy new boss named Mux who’s voiced by Gabourey Sidibe (Precious, American Horror Story). Kenny, the gun voiced by Justin Roiland (who parted ways with the studio after the since-dropped domestic violence allegations against him became public), isn’t in the DLC. High on Knife comes out this fall across PC, Xbox and PlayStation.

The widely acclaimed Western open world epic, which released for PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2010, is indeed coming to modern consoles, though it doesn’t look like it will be making too many major enhancements or changes.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Is Headed to Old-Gen PS4 and Xbox One Consoles
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is headed to old-gen platforms. During the Q1 2024 earnings call, EA confirmed that developer Respawn Entertainment is in the early stages of developing dedicated versions for the PS4 and Xbox One. The Cal Kestis-led (Cameron Monaghan) galaxy-spawning adventure originally launched in April, but entirely skipped previous generations — akin to other major publishers, who've been leaning toward the newer consoles for ease in optimisation and being able to render the visuals to the highest quality they desire. Currently, there's no release window, though when it eventually drops on older systems, will be an interesting testing bench to see how much visual fidelity the game sacrificed to run at minimum 30fps on a hard drive.
