Red Dead Redemption 4K 60fps remaster is mindblowingly gorgeous

Turns outRed Dead Redemptionrunning at 60fps and 4K is one of the most beautiful things we’ve ever seen. Who could’ve guessed?

There’s been a lot of speculation recently thatRockstar Gamesplan on releasinga remakeof the originalRed Dead Redemption, using the same engine used to developRed Dead Redemption 2. While most of it could be boiled down to rumours and hearsay, it hasn’t stopped fans hoping for official confirmation from Rockstar very soon.

The difference can be spotted immediately, with gameplay and cutscenes looking a lot cleaner and smoother than their original release on the Xbox 360 andPlayStation 3. Graphically it still doesn’t compare to the jaw-dropping visuals ofRed Dead Redemption 2, which is to be expected of course, but it’s definitely an improvement on the original.

While it’s not the remaster many fans are hoping for, it’s worth checking out, especially if your PC has the specs needed to achieve high-performance.

In the meantime, fans continue to wait for news on the mysteriousRed Dead Redemptionremake. While there’s no concrete evidence of its existence there are hints that it’s on the way. Even John Marston’s voice actor is down to reprise his role if Rockstar decides to bring the game back to current-gen.

That being said, fans have made it clear that theydon’t want another remasterif it’s of similar poor quality toGrand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition,which brought back three classic GTA games with “updated” visuals that somehow made them look worse. The release was also riddled withbugs and glitchesthat made certain parts of the games unplayable.

Given the success of the Red Dead Redemption series, it’d only make sense for Rockstar to bring back the first game for a modern audience, and if it has the same visual speed and fidelity as the Xenia version, it’ll definitely be a step in the right direction.
