Red Dead Redemption PC Screens Show Off The Improved Visuals

• Tessellated tree textures and improved grass and fur textures for added realism in every plant and animal

Beyond all of this Red Dead Redemption 2’s PC version includes support for 4K (and beyond), HDR, and multi-monitor setups. Of course, you’ll need the necessary hardware to play the game, as outlined in the just-revealed Red Dead 2 PC system specs.

Red Dead Redemption 2 launches on November 5 for PC through the Rockstar Games Launcher and other stores. The game won’t come to Steam until December, however.
