New Features and Updates
Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC makes cleverly use of the possibility the PC gives to bring the entire large, rich and very detailed world to life, including the snow-covered summits of the Grizzly Mountains as well as the sandy roads of Lemoyne; from the dirty-muddy storefronts of Valentine to the old winding alleys of St Denis.
