RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2: Massive Update Improves Stability, Adds HDR10+ Support

Mar 20, 2024 11:31 PM

Rockstar Games has rolled out a new update for Red Dead Redemption 2, addressing a range of bugs and enhancing the game's performance across PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The patch, version 1.32, delivers general stability improvements, fixes to daily challenges, game-crashing issues, and introduces HDR10+ Gaming support. Offline Mode for PC players is refined to work well even with Windows 11 updates, and voice chat now defaults to off for a better gaming experience.

Despite no major content updates since the shift of focus to Grand Theft Auto 6 development, Red Dead Redemption 2 continues to offer monthly updates featuring events like Blood Money, Bounty Hunter, and Naturalist. These help keep the online world engaging for players. Red Dead Redemption 2, released in 2018, has become one of the best-selling games of all time, with over 61 million copies sold by February 2024.

Has Rockstar Games stopped developing new content for Red Dead Redemption 2?

Yes, Rockstar Games announced in 2022 that major updates for Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online would be discontinued to reallocate resources for the development of Grand Theft Auto 6.

Red Dead Redemption 2 serves as a prequel to the original Red Dead Redemption and has been acknowledged for its deep storytelling, vast open-world, and attention to detail. The game's narrative focuses on Arthur Morgan, an outlaw and a member of the Van der Linde gang, as players explore the rugged heartland of America at the turn of the 20th century. The game's online component, Red Dead Online, provides a multiplayer experience in the same setting. Red Dead Redemption 2 has received critical acclaim, winning several awards and being praised for its immersive gameplay and the depth of its world.
