CVG: Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare Review

For £7.99 or 800 Microsoft Points then this is quite the package. Undead Nightmare brings a whole new, chunky single player campaign with all the great Red Dead qualities (and some of its niggles).

If that's not enough the Overrun multiplayer alone will prove to be a big addition that'll hook loads of players from the moment that very first zombie head goes bang.

How long is this campaign story. And how does it tie into the original story? Also how do you play it, is it activated ingame or seperately from menu.

My guess...kid goes to sleep, activates DLC, game is a full fledge game like Episodes, and in the end the Kid wakes up...the end? That sounds really cool, but thaqt is my guess on how this goes.

I know it happens when you are done working for the government and can return home. Besides that is all i know.

DORMIN4933d ago

DAY ONE PURCHASE.

Did you guys see the new trailer?!

AAACE54933d ago

You gotta give Rockstar credit on this one! They came out with a good game and they came with good dlc that is appropriate considering it's halloween time.

Ahasverus4933d ago

Wow Rockstar never ceases to amaze me, I love that company, RDR was one of the best games in history and Rockstar is actually expanding it in smart ways that don't harm the original concept. Buying day 1

Dsnyder4933d ago

Yeah becasuse zombies in an old west game totally doesnt harm the original concept. This "add zombies" thing is the cancer that is killing creativity. Zomebies are so painfully cliche that adding them to anything just makes it corny. Take a break from the damn zombies thing for a while ie (5-10 years) devs. We have seen way too much of it.

Ahasverus4933d ago

This is a tongue in cheek story, no one takes it seriously in RDR canon, it's like a Haloween special. far more preferable than a story expansion that leaves more plot holes than the original game, now that's harming *cough*AlanWake*cough*

Orionsangel4933d ago

Will anything from the single player of Undead Nightmare carry over to free roam, like mythical creatures, gang hideouts with zombies?

I've found it hard to take their reviews seriously ever since this: http://www.computerandvideo...

"Used To Be A Gold Standard"

And every access game journo helped lower this standard.

isarai193d ago

Seriously, like even to the point of criticizing a game for being complete out the box and not dropping microtransactions on a storefront every month. Outlets were really out here mad that Hogwarts Legacy was finished and didn't need any battle pass, or "seasons" of DLC. So brainwashed they don't even know how to handle a game with an actual ending.

anast193d ago

For sure, and don't forget how "BG3 shouldn't be a new standard".

Cacabunga193d ago

RDR online is also a great deal

The first time I felt like a game got DLC right was Borderlands 1. $10 for hours of content.

isarai193d ago

I paid $5 for Sleeping dogs DLC that added an entire campaign, new fighting styles and weapons, and basically turned the whole City into a zombie survival thing. Then another $5 for a full kickass tournament parading game of death which added an island, and lots of new fighting styles

Soy193d ago

Fallout 3, Mass Effect 2 & 3, Borderlands 1 & 2, GTA IV - those are my gold standards of DLC.

Something they couldn’t even give us in GTAV or RDR2

I honestly thought we’d get some Alien type of DLC for one of them at least

Undead Nightmare's Popularity is Proof Rockstar Should Make a Zombie Game

The Undead Nightmare expansion for the original Red Dead Redemption was a massive success, and Rockstar should take this formula to a standalone game.

They already have; this expansion is their zombie game. No need to create a new IP just for this.

InUrFoxHole531d ago

Loved the dlc. Best dlc ever released imo

thecodingart531d ago (Edited 531d ago )

The author clear doesn’t understand the essence of what made the dlc so good… it wasn’t zombies and it definitely wasn’t a dedicated IP to zombies.

It was the sheer ambience and un seen mixing of a game with elements that were non existent in said game’s theme. It was a perfect fantasy mash up that changed the game in unbelievably awesome ways.
