Bethesda Announces Plans For The Final Redfall Update On Xbox & PC

Matchmaking please. Not sure who's still playing but I'm still waiting for that feature.

Thank you Arkane Austin, may all your staff get new jobs soon and have a happy future.
Such a shame overall.

That is the first single piece of good Xbox news to come out in what feels like forever! Thank you!

Single player pausing is huge. I can't stand playing a game solo and not having the option to pause.

While we're granting last requests for studios... Can Tango Gameworks also be allowed to finish making Hi FI Rush 2?!

@BacklogBrad This x1000. It's not 60fps or other improvements that would make me give Redfall another chance, but the ability to pause would do.

@pip_muzz They patched in 60fps a bit ago, I think.

@pip_muzz It's a bleak day when the first good news the platform has had in months is that the dead studio they just finished murdering managed to write a patch in their own blood as they died. Party time!

It's on-brand for the game though.

Such a shame. Had they added split screen I have bought it day one, even with it being on game pass.

Part of me wants to go ahead and buy it with how cheap it is, but when I've got split screen games like Cod BLOPS4 Zombie with 4 player split screen and Left 4 Dead 2 with two player split screen, almost feels like a waste

So basically it will be an update to the game as it should been at launch. Yea!

Really think this update will be good. I enjoyed all that I played of redfall. If it released in this state and say maybe at $50-$60 instead that ridiculous $70 the game been received much, much better.

I'd be interested to see how the revamped Neighborhood system works.

One thing I thought was odd that even a "Cleared" neighborhood was no different than a non-cleared neighborhood. It would have been cool if there were differences and even bonuses to actually freeing them (other than for game progression purposes).

Hopefully the developers manage to add some kind of Story Quest that unlocks access back to Redfall proper once you "finish" it.

Bye. Thanks for the memes.

Thank you Arkane Austin.
Want you to know I love Redfall.
Wishing you best wishes for your all your futures.

Crazy how much I was excited when I first heard of the idea then saw the trailer and thought hmm I’ll try it on game pass but still haven’t because it doesn’t feel completed maybe should’ve been released 2025 fall season

An offline mode, eh? Maybe I'll give it a try at some point in the future then. Yes, it's probably kind of bad, but I have a guilty pleasure of playing bad games so that might not even matter.

Anybody ever play PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale? One of the worst games I've ever played, and yet every now and then I go back to it as a joke, or when friends are over so we can laugh at how bad it is together. If Redfall is anything like that for me and I can find it dirt cheap, maybe it will be worth it!

Still think it's a good game. I'll probably play it again at some point.

It is interesting how most people who are commenting are gushing over the "good' news of this seeming reversal of Microsoft's bad judgement. However welcome this news may be, it still doesn't wash away the bad thinking that went into what is presumably Microsoft corporate's draconian decision.

How much could it cost to get that already planned update out? Huh, of course this update needed to come out. Of course sealing a game off in a decayed and undesirable state is poor judgement. Of course this kind of decision will turn off Xbox fans and hurt the brand.

I'm no doomsayer but until there is clear evidence that further Xbox decisions will no longer be that stupid, then I am pessimistic for the brand's future. And BTW, where is Phil Spencer in all this and what wilderness did they sentence him to wander the rest of his days with Microsoft's gaming division?

I played it through solo anyway good game

7/10

Offline mode is always a win.

@pip_muzz yeah as has been mentioned, they patched in 60fps ages ago. Great game imo, defo gonna go back now there's offline mode. Thanks AA .

Okay. Cool that they can finish the patch at least. Farewell to one of my favorite devs.

thank you. REDFALL FOREVER!

i need to buy the disk version to hang on my wall.

Good news and it makes sense. I enjoyed playing it, never understood the hate. It has issues but still ended up being very fun.

I like the game so happy to see a final patch with some good additions.

As crap as Xbox has been for what seems like the last few weeks, I will give them and Bethesda credit for this. Letting the update come out even after the lights going out is a cool move

I re-installed Redfall in anticipation of this. It's a shame the game will never hit the L4D open world aspirations it had, but I always loved the creepy atmosphere.

@trev666 what's the game like in single player? Is there a proper story mode at all?

I loved that game so much. Finished with Devinder.

Hoping for this update to bring mission select so I can do 100% of the game.

But I'll definitely play it all again regardless as I want to experiment the other characters.

I gave the game a chance a few times co-op with a friend, but having our progress deleted both times we logged in to play killed our motivation to continue.

I picked up a physical copy a few months ago for $10 still sealed. Mabey it'll be worth something someday. Probably not.

@Deljo yeah i played it through it has main quests side quests

Yeah good news

@trev666 I played it solo too. I really enjoyed the game. 7 out of 10 is what I would give it.

@Deljo yes it does have a proper story mode.

@Sk8boyP yeah I'd like this to come to the game too!

I played through the game and it is nothing great (But not totally bad). Critic scores were deserved, and although I hate any studio shutting down, if this was a sign of their future games then MS made the correct choice here.

Redfall….big hype, massive fail….don’t like anyone losing their job, but right decision by Microsoft.
