A new mod has just dropped for the PC port ofRockstar Games’firstRed Dead Redemptionthat promises to completely “overhaul” the game’s graphics, but be warned; you may need a PhD in modding to actually install this one.
“RDR Reimagined” is a graphics overhaul forRed Dead Redemptionfrom mod author Frames Of Screen that aims to revamp the “Lighting, Colour Grading, Post Processing & more” for the PC version of the game.
According to mod author Frames Of Screen, RDR Reimagined is supposed to make the game look more like it’s sequel. Frames Of Screen explains that the mod “attempts to revamp the visuals of Red Dead Redemption, mainly taking inspiration from Red Dead Redemption 2.”

And I can see it. The muddier, deeper colours and warmer lighting effects do make it look a lot more likeRed Dead Redemption 2.
Now, while it does all look extremely impressive, you should know ahead of time that installing this mod is no easy task.
The instructions in RDR Reimagined have nine unique steps, which is a far cry from a lot of Nexus mods that simply require you to download them and potentially mess around with your load order.

Commenter RogueNation702 shared a video ofYouTuber L321’s tutorialon how to get the mod up and running, which seems to have helped a bunch of commenters make sense of the complicated instructions.
Also, this is probably a good time to warn you that it seems that RDR Reimagined has a pretty brutal effect onRed Dead Redemption’sFPS. You should only attempt to give this mod a go if you have a PC powerful enough to handle it!
