Despite being a previous-gen release, gamers still think that Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the best looking games out there, and for good reason.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is an iconic game, and easily one of the greatest single-player adventures of all time. Rockstar Games pulled out all the stops with this one, and it shows - although it’s yet to receive a new-gen update (last year, an insider claimed that plans for this may have been scrapped completely), fans agree that the title has barely aged a day when it comes to its visuals.
Take a look at some of the funniest wins and fails from Red Dead Redemption 2 below.

“Four+ years later Red Dead Redemption 2 still has one [sic] of the best non-ray-traced illumination,” Reddit user ArateshaNungastori wrote. “I’m always f***ing amazed how good this game looks,” replied DougieSenpai. “RDR2 is a beautiful masterpiece,” agreed Literally_Pepe. “Four+ years ain't that long a time, I bet RDR2 will remain a visual benchmark for at least another decade,” added brandyrelish.
When RDR2 looks as good as it does, it’s hard to imagine how a follow-up title could top it. Although Red Dead Redemption 3 hasn’t been confirmed to be in development, back in 2021, Strauss Zelnick, the CEO of Rockstar’s parent company Take-Two Interactive, confirmed that as with any successful series, it will continue at some point. How far away that’ll be is another matter - we’re still waiting on GTA VI to get a trailer, and it’s been almost a full decade since GTA V was released. Feel old yet?
We’ll all be anxiously anticipating its eventual release, anyway. Just think, there’s a very decent chance that the next generation of consoles will already be out by then. Hopefully, those will be a little easier to buy than the elusive PS5s have been.
