If you happen to’d instructed me again in 2010 that Pink Useless Redemption would take 14 years to launch on PC, I might have been blissful: the world nonetheless has not less than 14 years left within the tank! However then I in all probability would have grown irritated: 14 years to play a PlayStation 3 / Xbox 360 sport on PC? It is merely unfair.
New proof suggests a Pink Useless Redemption PC port is imminent. Famed GTA dataminer Tez2 posted new code from the Rockstar launcher website at present, and it does not go away a lot room for interpretation. Among the many code is the next quote: “Journey throughout the sprawling expanses of the American West and Mexico in Pink Useless Redemption, and its zombie-horror companion, Undead Nightmare, now playable on PC.”

If true, it is a canny transfer on Rockstar’s half: releasing a traditional sport on the second largest gaming platform on the earth (after cellular) reveals large enterprise acumen.
Pink Useless Redemption obtained PS4 and Nintendo Change ports final 12 months, which have been very welcome, although some have been dissatisfied by the dearth of graphical enhancements. Even the PS4 model remained locked at 30fps, for instance, although a 60fps choice was later made obtainable for gamers on PS5. Others have been irritated by the $50 price ticket, which the CEO of Rockstar’s father or mother firm, Straus Zelnick, known as a “commercially correct worth”.
Rockstar has lengthy been shy of PC. PC variations of each Grand Theft Auto 5 and Pink Useless Redemption 2 launched a 12 months after their console equivalents, and arguably essentially the most anticipated videogame of all time, Grand Theft Auto 6, can even skip PC when it launches on consoles subsequent 12 months. Why? The subject has by no means been instantly addressed by Rockstar.
We reached out to Rockstar, who declined to remark.
