Rockstar Games has quietly delivered an unexpected treat to Red Dead Redemption fans, making it more captivating than ever. When the classic title made its return to the Nintendo Switch and PS4 in August, it marked a momentous occasion for fans eager to relive the Wild West adventure. However, its re-release was not without its quirks, especially for those on a modern PlayStation console. The game was limited to a 30FPS cap, which, in a world where gamers crave smooth, high-definition experiences, felt somewhat out of place.
But now, things have changed, and for the better! With the release of version 1.03 update for the game, players on the PS4 version of Red Dead Redemption can now unlock a phenomenal gaming experience on their PS5. That’s right, you can now toggle on a stunning 60FPS option, transforming the way you play the game.
What’s even more intriguing is that Rockstar Games hasn’t made a big fuss about this remarkable new feature. In today’s world of gaming, where every new feature is typically hyped up to the max, this subtle surprise has left players astounded.
We took a closer look at the Switch version of Red Dead Redemption when it relaunched in August, giving it a respectable 7.5/10 rating. Our review stated, “The Switch port of Red Dead Redemption is a faithful way to immerse yourself in the world of Red Dead. It retains its charm, looking quite good, particularly if you consider the game’s age. Plus, it consistently performs well in both handheld and docked modes. While some aspects may feel dated, the thrill of exploring the Old West with John Marston during the twilight of the American frontier remains as captivating as ever.”
