About this game
As John Marston, you pursue former gang members after federal agents threaten your family. Horseback travel connects the American West and Mexico, while wanted posters provide bounty-hunting jobs with the option to bring fugitives back dead or alive. Dead Eye slows time during shooting and draws on a replenishable meter. The package also includes Undead Nightmare, a single-player story set amid a zombie outbreak. Nintendo Switch 2 Edition adds mouse-control support to these adventures. Multiplayer content is not included.

Nintendo Switch 2AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A solitary Western journey with resource-based gunplay and an additional control option.
The appeal rests on combining Marston's pursuit with bounty-hunting decisions and limited use of Dead Eye. Mouse support gives this edition an additional point of interest for players who prefer that input method.
Strengths
- Dead-or-alive bounty targets provide a concrete choice within an otherwise straightforward pursuit.
- Mouse controls broaden the available input options for the single-player adventures.
Who it is for: Players interested in Western stories, horseback travel and the option of mouse controls.
Play notes: The included Undead Nightmare is a single-player story; this edition does not provide multiplayer content.
