Red Dead Redemption 2 PC Trailer
The Rockstar Games Newswire now offers a new trailer from Red Dead Redemption 2 showing off the upcoming PC edition of the wild west shooter in all its 60 fps 4K resolution glory.
Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC brings the epic story of Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang to life in breathtaking new ways – with no shortage of dazzling technical enhancements that deliver deeper immersion. These include increased draw distances, improved shadows and lighting, new grass and fur textures, and much more – complemented by a host of exciting new content additions for the game’s Story Mode.
Watch the new trailer above to see Red Dead Redemption 2 in stunning 4K/60 frames per second and see how packed full of new details and greater fidelity every corner of this vast open world is. From the claw marks of a passing bear at the base of a tree in Big Valley and the individual spines on a cactus in New Austin, to a train passing on a far horizon and embers sparkling in the New Hanover night sky.

Looking forward to this, I really enjoy big open world games and this looks to have good action / storyline from the console reviews.
I wonder if my GFX 970 might have met it's match, been waiting for AIB 5700XT prices to stabilise
Hilbert, could you add this to your game tests for new video cards if possible and it fits in with your other tests? Alternatively just a one off test as you often do, that would be appreciated.

Really thinking about where to get this.
Steam would be the first choice but if this means that Rockstar Launcher also has to open and run in the background then maybe it's a bit pointless. Does anyone know if R*L is required?

Really does look amazing and should allow my 3900X/2080Ti to stretch it's legs. I know a few people on PS4 who think it's a brilliant game, so will have to try it out for myself. Shame it needs a separate launch, would prefer to keep it in Steam/Origin.

From what I've read, it's arriving on Steam in December but only on Rockstar Launcher (maybe Epic Games Store) on release.

gta 5 port was good so i am hopeful this will be also.

in a lot major releases Hilbert releasing a performance review of the games considering how high profile and how anticipated this game is ... i bet he is already planning one !
i might be wrong though

The question was : is the Rockstar Launcher required to be loaded in the background even if one buys the game on Steam?

Looks amazing. Quite nice of Rockstar to give PC players an enhanced edition for
I dont think it will. the launcher is a download client nothing more. the social thing will be installed ofcourse, since its a integral part of the game. So basicly just like GTA5.

Looks amazing. Is there a list of what exactly the PC enhancements are over consoles? So I could stick the list in noses of console friends faces...

Don't forget, the FiveM developers are going to be working on RedM for mods as well.
