Red Dead Redemption PC Version Looks Great With Overhaul Mod

Expert Verified By

Proper Red Dead Redemption Remaster Is Here!

Story Highlight
  • The Reality Redemption mod has been released for Red Dead Redemption Remastered on PC.
  • It offers better visuals, improved animations, and smarter AI.
  • The mod is also being improved further and promises enhancements to textures, memory allocation, and more.

Rockstar launched Red Dead Redemption Remastered for PC last month to a lukewarm reception. The PC version brought various graphical upgrades over its console counterpart, but these weren’t enough to attract a large player base.

For PC users, a mod already existed that offered a similar experience with various enhancements via the Xenia emulator. This version has now been ported to the official PC release, making Red Dead Redemption Remastered even better.

Why it matters: Red Dead Redemption debuted more than 14 years ago. Because of its age, the game clearly needed more than a few touch-ups, so some fans were left underwhelmed by the remaster.

According to creator BadassBaboon, the Reality Redemption mod was originally designed for the Xbox 360 port of Rockstar’s classic take on the Wild West.

Enhancements included improved vegetation draw distances, enhanced shadows, and more. The mod also improved core systems like the in-game AI and Euphoria physics.

Similar upgrades exist in Red Dead Redemption Remastered, but with the mod now being officially available for this version, the game is one step closer to the definitive release that fans have been longing for.

As seen in the video above, Reality Redemption makes the title look better than ever. The water surfaces, in particular, show a notable improvement, while the addition of higher-quality textures makes the game more detailed overall.

 It is also important to note that Reality Redemption is currently a work in progress, with more improvements to come in the future. These will range from memory allocation fixes to a proper PostFX system.

All in all, Reality Redemption highlights how far the game could have been pushed on PC. Studio Double Eleven still did a solid job with the port, but the team ultimately went for a more refined take on the existing console version.
