Topic: Red Dead Redemption upgrade for Xbox Series

Anyone else still waiting for their Red Dead Redemption upgrade on Xbox?

I can't believe how they've bungled this. The PS5 and Switch 2 upgrades seem to have gone smoothly. But on Xbox, you've got Microsoft support (presumed by many to be bots) telling people there is no upgrade or that the upgrade is only for owners of a nonexistent Xbox One release.

I have to wonder what the difficulty is. I'm sure things are more complicated than I think, but it sure seems like it should be easy to update some database to say, "Any account with this game also gets this game."

Yes, so here's what I did. I waited a few days but finally I just decided to buy the game (it's only 25 bucks)even though I own the digital 360 version but was tired of waiting.

I added it to the cart hit pay and THEN IT TOLD ME I ALREADY OWNED IT. And it was free from that point.

I wondered about this. I still don't have it yet, but I'm not gonna risk spending money over it. I've been playing the PS5 version and don't really need the Xbox update anyway, but since I had the original 360 release digitally, I figured I might as well check it out.

Lots of people seemed excited to play it on Xbox over the weekend. What a shame!

Yea, I was willing to spend the money so I wouldn't suggest others try it and risk the 25 bucks but it worked in my case.

My update finally came through this afternoon. Hopefully I was in the last group and no one else is still waiting.
