After news that Red Dead Redemption had received a new update allowing it to run at 60FPS on the PlayStation 4, fans are hoping this means the same changes will be added to its sequel.
Yesterday saw Rockstar quietly adding an update to Red Dead Redemption which gives players access 60fps on PlayStation 5 (and the PS4 using backwards compatibility). The new toggle option was included with update 1.03 alongside "general bug fixes, stability fixes, and improvements". With Red Dead Redemption originally releasing in 2010 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, it was later remastered for current-gen consoles in August of this year. However, it earned some backlash after fans criticised the £50 price tag for less than desirable performance issues.

After the recent update, however, the PS5 option now offers players the chance to play at 60fps which fans are hoping will also be applied to its 2018 sequel, Red Dead Redemption 2. In the latest emails that were leaked during the Microsoft court case, one note read that customers could expect an updated version of RDR2 in Q2 2023. Although that period has passed, it could show that Rockstar are at least working on it, and we could see it implemented for the sequel soon.
With the latest patch being praised by players, it would be the perfect time to dive back into the 13-year-old game. However, if you are ready to get into the Halloween spirit, you can get stuck into the spooky events currently live on Red Dead Redemption 2. The Halloween update gives players the chance to take down ghouls in a new game mode, earn a bunch of monstrous cosmetics and even go on treasure hunts for a bit of extra cash.
Despite no current signs of a 60fps update for Red Dead Redemption 2, it is still hailed as the last game that really blew players away. High praise indeed.
