Upgrade Unleashes High-Speed Action

PlayStation owners are in for a treat as one of the greatest games of all time just got even better. The highly anticipated upgrade provides a seamless gaming experience like never before.

PS5 and PS4 Pro Owners Rejoice

The best part? This incredible upgrade is completely free for PS5 and PS4 Pro owners who have already bought the game. Unfortunately, owners of the original PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox are being left out in the cold.

Red Dead Redemption Gets a Boost

The recent port of Red Dead Redemption has just received a game-changing update, unlocking blistering 60fps gameplay for PS5 and PS4 Pro owners.

A Game-Changer

The new patch has revolutionized the game, delivering smoother action and more immersive gameplay for PS5 and PS4 Pro players.

A Long-Awaited Improvement

Up until now, the port of Red Dead Redemption for PS4 (and PS5 via backwards compatibility) and the Nintendo Switch has only been playable at a sluggish 30fps. This disappointing frame rate became a sore point for fans.

Breathing New Life into a Classic

The brand new patch has effectively doubled the framerate of Red Dead Redemption by taking full advantage of the impressive hardware of the PS5 and PS4 Pro, resulting in sharper graphics and a more responsive gaming experience.

An Anticipated Release

The release of the new version of Red Dead Redemption for PS4 and Switch back in August 2023 sparked mixed reactions among fans. Many were hoping for more significant changes and improvements over the original game, which was first released in 2010 for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

A Price Tag That Doesn't Match

Despite its £40 price, the release was merely a simple port and not a remaster or a ground-up remake, which left some fans feeling underwhelmed.

Left in the Dust

Today's upgrade leaves behind PS4 and Nintendo Switch owners, who are now stuck playing the game's new port at a mediocre 30fps. This comes as a disappointment, especially considering the age of the game, as previous-generation consoles should be more than capable of running it at a higher framerate.

Xbox Owners Miss Out

Regrettably, Xbox owners did not receive the exciting upgrade. However, Red Dead Redemption has been playable on Microsoft's consoles since before the August 2023 re-release. Thanks to backwards compatibility, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One owners can still enjoy the original version of RDR for Xbox 360. Although the game can be played at 4K resolution on Xbox Series X, it remains locked at the original 30fps.

Nintendo Switch Players Left Hanging

Similar to Xbox users, Nintendo Switch owners are still waiting for their chance to experience the enhanced gameplay, as the game's port remains limited to 30fps on this platform.
