In response to recent reports that the physical release for upcoming co-op shooter Redfall will not include discs, publisher Bethesda has taken to Twitter to clear out the confusion. Redfall also now has an entry on the Bethesda support website stating that the Xbox Series X standard edition will feature a physical disc.
According to Bethesda, the retail release of Redfall standard edition on Xbox Series X will include a physical disc from which the game can be installed. The standard edition can be upgraded to the Bite Back edition through a separate upgrade, which grants players a code that provides bonus items from the upgrades in-game.
The Bite Back upgrade will be available digitally, as well as physically through select retailers.
The physical retail release of Redfall on PC, however, will not include a disc. Rather, it will only have a code which will allow players to redeem a digital copy of the game. The standard edition Xbox Series X release will be the only SKU of Redfall that will include a physical disc.
Redfall has been mired in one controversy or another for a bit, including the recent revelation that it would require constant Internet connection for players to even play the game solo.
Redfall is coming to Xbox Series X/S and PC on May 2. If you’re thinking of picking up the PC version, here are the system requirements.
