The PS4 trophies list for the Red Dead Redemption enhanced port have been revealed. Rockstar Games surprised the gaming community when it announced the release of Red Dead Redemption for PS4 and Nintendo Switch. While it was not the remaster that most fans were hoping for, it was still great news for most gamers who were looking to experience both the original title and the Undead Nightmare expansion without having to dust off their older consoles.
Red Dead Redemption was first released in 2010 on PS3 and Xbox 360. While it was a successor to Red Dead Revolver, Redemption was built differently than its predecessor. Its core gameplay followed closely in the footsteps of the famed franchise Grand Theft Auto in that it was an open world, albeit in a Western setting. Still, the game was a technical marvel that introduced fans to the Red Dead universe and characters that most fans love now.
Gamers excited about the Red Dead Redemption release for modern consoles may now check out the PS4 trophies. With the removal of the online component, a lot of achievements have disappeared. In addition, the Platinum Trophy now requires Undead Nightmare to be finished as well, making completion a more streamlined approach. Most fans would say that even with the requirement to complete both games, this generation's version of the game might be easier to 100% because of the absence of the difficult multiplayer trophies.
The initial look at the trophies list may get some fans excited, but there was a looming worry that Redemption could turn out like the disappointing Grand Theft Auto Trilogy set of games previously released. Most gamers remember that the remasters gave the trilogy a fresh new coat of paint, but the new "improvements" ended up ruining the experience. Not to mention, the game continues to be a buggy mess that many players still try to avoid. As this game just released, it's still too early to tell how different the experience is.
One thing of note is that while the GTA Trilogy release was a disaster, those games came out during the PS2 era. Red Dead Redemption is a little over a decade old and came from only two generations away. The original Red Dead Redemption release still holds up to this day, with its graphics and gameplay proving that it was a masterpiece for its time. The graphical changes aren't too drastic, but only because the base look of the original was already visually impressive. With modern consoles' more powerful hardware, Red Dead Redemption takes advantage by bumping up the visual fidelity and resolutions to fit the current gaming landscape.
