Asda and Take Two resolve dispute

MCV Staff 26th May 2010 Business News

Supermarket chain Asda has confirmed to MCV that its dispute with Rockstar owners Take Two has been resolved.
The result is that current UK no.1 Red Dead Redemption will at last arrive on Asda’s shelves on Saturday May 29th.

MCV revealed last week that a dispute between the publisher and retailer had lead to Asda refusing to stock the game in its stores, though it was still available to order through its website. The nature of the dispute is still unknown.

However, a quick phone around of retailers this morning suggests that the game is still in short supply, with versions for both and PS3 and now the Xbox 360 quite hard to pin down.

MCV has contacted Rockstar to clarify the current stock situation.
