Red Dead Redemption 2 Gets An Unofficial 60 FPS Patch For PlayStation 5

Red Dead Redemption 2 can now run at an unlocked 60 FPS on the PlayStation 5, thanks to the work of a modder.

How about a patch to disable the blurry TAA

The PS4 pro version also suffers from a terrible checkerboard implementation, making the image blurry and less detailed than even the base PS4.

Of course that was never fixed, never change Rockstar.

Honestly it's one of the main reasons I never got very far in it (like 15hrs). I have pretty good eyesight, and the blur in RDR2 makes my retinas hurt, like they are trying to focus all the time. A few games have done this like Dragons Dogma on PS3/360 but at least that got a crisp remaster so I could finally enjoy how awesome that game is. RSR2 I have more gripes with, but fixing the blur and HDR alone would be enough for me to give it another shot at least

This is why I don’t understand people that still have any faith in GTA6 or any future Rockstar products.

All the original team left and everything they’ve release since, along with their support, has been a hot garbage, dumpster fire.

@1nsomniac

They have some shitty practices, but they're still putting out great games, can't discredit them there.

[GoodGuy09]

Why modding and modders are great.

[blackblades]

Surprise they let them do it, needs to happen often.

[CML2]

The PS5 needs to be jailbroken for this to work. Sony isnt exactly allowing them.

[blackblades]

Ooooh i thought they were saying they allowed them to do it officially without jail breaking

"The major setback in the room is that players need a hacked PlayStation 5 to relish Red Dead Redemption 2 at 60 FPS"

If only there was an article to read before commenting...

Oh man Rockstar is going to shut this one down quick! They were just planning to charge $60 to millions of folks for one of their coders spending 5 minutes unlocking the frame rate on next gen consoles. Sad to say but Rockstar has gone from the best developer in the world to a greedy, soulless megacorp in no time flat. I would put them behind Ubi, EA, and CDPR at this point. At least those groups try to adjust, make amends, and do nice things for their fans.

[MIDGETonSTILTS17]

They are working on a billion dollar game…

[Abear21]

That probably won’t release for at least another 18 months. Maybe longer. We don’t know bc Rockstar marketing team zigs when others zag.

[Abear21]

Facts. Bully, Max Payne, Manhunt, Midnight Club, just where they hell are you Rockstar? Can we get a sniff of a trailer release window for GTA6 or just crickets as usual? The switch ps4 RDR is a slap in the face of consumers and a trolling corporate joke.

[RaiderNation]

How do mods work on a console? Like, can anyone use this mod? If so, how?

[Profchaos]

You need a softmodded ps5 and to be comfortable messing around with homebrew. Personally I would practice on something like a Wii to start with if it's your first experience with softmodding which you can pickup for 20 bucks learn some of the scene and not risk your expensive ps5.

I have no idea if this homebrew is public yet either

[Dandizzle]

You could just get a PC and play the game higher than 60fps easily with xenia.

[Hypertension140]

This is the second game tho.

[DaniMacYo]

Give us a 60fps for the OG port. Greedy pricks.

[Profchaos]

Then what are they going to do for the definitive edition won't someone think of the execs

[DarXyde]

If you've got modders, people who are NOT paid and fix your stupidity for no compensation beyond love of the game, you need to drop your price and you should be ashamed of yourself. Bethesda is awful in this regard, but Rockstar is royally screwing up.

I hope people can resist the urge to support them on this and even GTAVI until they get it together. At this point, if you want to establish goodwill, you've got three options (or some combination thereof)

1. Drop the price. At most, this should be $25.

2. Shout out the modders and drive support to them (Patreon, PayPal, etc). If they're doing your job they deserve to be compensated.

3. Remaster the game. Properly. Delay it and bump up the quality. People have only gotten better sound systems and displays since the game released on PS3/XBOX 360. That will not bode well for the experience and you're being charged a premium for a 10+ year old game.

They won't do any of these things, sadly. People need to boycott them, but they were smart to starve people of a new GTA for ages. They could totally underwhelm with VI and still be rewarded. I encourage people to be principled on this matter. Do not enable their half-assery.

R* are the new Sega, incredible IP that turned grossly mismanaged and sadly underutilized.
