Yes, PC gamers may be rewarded for their continued patience, but as of now, there’s no official word about Red Dead Redemption 2 coming to PC. Well, if you are a PC gamer desperately looking for a game to scratch your Red Dead Redemption 2 itch, here are some which give you a taste of the Wild West.

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger has you play asSilas Greaves. Announced at PAX 2012, Call of Juarez: Gunslinger is thefourth Western-themed first-person shooterin the series, and it weaves aninteresting storyaround Greaves, who’s a bounty hunter trying to survive the post-civil-war west.Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger has everything you have come to expect from a western game. There’sfierce gunfights, noisy bandits, dueling, and a whole lot more. Heck, it even lets you slow down the time and take headshots, just like RDR’s“Dead Eye”feature. It also has a great storyline, that’ll keep you engrossed for a long time.

Buy Call of Juarez: Gunslinger from Steam (₹491)

Hard West

I am not a huge fan of strategy games, but Hard West has earned its place in the list mainly because of its gameplay. It is a hybrid ofXCOM-like strategy games and RPGs, where the decisions you make will impact your in-game battles.

The meat of the game is just some men with guns, really. It has sometense combat momentsthat’ll definitely keep on the edge of your seat. It is, however, worth pointing out that the game hassub-par graphics. Poor lighting and weird text boxes takes away from the experience, but it’s definitely worth picking up if you are looking for a game to satisfy your cravings for a western title. And honestly, at less than Rs 100, it’s easy to check it out this weekend.

GUN

If there’s one game that has most of the core ingredients of Red Dead Redemption, it has to be the GUN. Yes, it lacks Rockstar’s finesse, but there’s definitely a lot going for it. You play asColton White, an outlaw seeking revenge after some tragic events in his life.

The game also overflows with those typicalWild West elementslike dueling or bounty hunting, which kept me coming back for more. GUN also has some solid characters brought to life by renowned actors such asKris Kristofferson,Brad Dourif, and a lot more. Honestly, it makes me sad that this game got overshadowed by other titles, just because it came out in a PS2-tech era.
