Red Dead Redemption October 4 patch notes: 60 FPS PS5, bug fixes, improvements, more
Rockstar GamesThe October 4 patch for Red Dead Redemption brings the long-awaited 60 FPS option on PlayStation 5, leaving players ecstatic.
Red Dead Redemption is a classic Rockstar Game that’s beloved by many. Ahead of GTA 6’s reveal, the devs decided to bring the classic Western game to modern PlayStation systems and the Nintendo Switch.
This has allowed PlayStation 5 players to enjoy the original Red Dead Redemption on a next-gen console. However, players weren’t too happy with its performance.
It wasn’t the polished update that many were hoping for, and while leaks suggested a remaster was in order, players were not happy to find that the gameplay was locked at 30 frames per second on PS5.
That said, Rockstar have addressed the complaints in the October 4 Red Dead Redemption patch notes, confirming that the new update has indeed introduced a 60 FPS option in the game’s settings for those on PS5.
