Red Dead Redemption Confirmed for Netflix, iOS, and Android Following Accidental Publishing

Rockstar Games and its parent company, Take-Two Interactive, have seemingly dropped the ball early, confirming that the classic Western, Red Dead Redemption, is heading to mobile platforms via iOS and Android, specifically through a partnership with Netflix.

This mobile release news follows a separate leak earlier today concerning new age ratings for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles. Together, these reveals confirm a massive multi-platform push for the 2010 masterpiece.

Netflix Gaming Takes the Lead

Pages for Red Dead Redemption NETFLIX briefly popped up on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. This is a major win for Netflix's expanding gaming division, which has previously partnered with Rockstar to bring the GTA Trilogy to its subscribers.

The key details revealed by the accidentally published pages include:

• Release Window: The App Store page notes an expected release date of December 4th.

• Access Requirement: Players will need an active Netflix membership to download and play the game, similar to how Netflix handles other major titles.

• File Size: The mobile port is expected to be approximately 3.1GB.

• Content: The mobile versions will contain the full main single-player story and the beloved Undead Nightmare expansion, but will not include any form of multiplayer.

Touch Controls and UI Changes

Screenshots accompanying the store pages confirm the game will feature on-screen touch controls adapted for smartphones and tablets. Notably, the user interface (UI) has been slightly adjusted for mobile play. The mini-map, typically located in the bottom-left corner on consoles, has been relocated to the top-right to accommodate the placement of the touch controls.

While a formal announcement from Rockstar Games is still pending, the presence of these official store pages and the recent ESRB ratings leave no doubt: John Marston’s epic journey across the American frontier will soon be playable on virtually every major platform, from next-gen consoles to the mobile device in your pocket.
