Red Dead Redemption 2 PC Launch Trailer, Screenshots and no RTX

Right, there's quite a bit of news for this title. First off, the PC release will not be RTX optimized, meaning there's no DXR Raytracing active.

There was a bit of confusion about it as the game got promoted with some PC screenshots holding an RTX logo, as it turned out it was merely to promote the RTX 20 series GPUs, nothing more. Good news though as the PC version will get better visuals than its console counterpart though. Features include increased draw distances for better navigation, higher quality global illumination and ambient occlusion for improved day and night lighting, and higher quality snow trails. Furthermore, the game will have improved reflections and deeper, higher resolution shadows at all distances. Tessellated tree textures and improved grass and fur textures will be also added for extra realism.

We have a launch trailer as well as some screenshots for you to peek at. Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming out on the PC on November 5th.
