Red Dead Redemption 2’s player community is still sharing their exploits with the world via screenshots and videos long after the game’s original release, and soon PC players withNvidia GPUscan create those moments in higher resolution with little extra effort. Nvidia recently announced a swath of 130 new games that will support Nvidia’s DLSS tech, and among those is Rockstar’s survival epic,Red Dead Redemption 2.
Nvidia announced the release date of the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and 3070 Ti along with the news of the new DLSS enabled games at its recent Computex event in Taiwan. Graphics cards are some of the most sought after electronics parts in the industry right now, and it will be interesting how many of these new 30-series cards end up with individual buyers and how many are bought up by scalping companies. The good news forRed Dead Redemption 2players is they don’t have to have the latest graphics card to experience the benefits of DLSS.

For gamers hazy on what DLSS actually is, it stands for deep learning super sampling and uses AI technology to upscale low resolution images to appear in high resolution. It also does this without needing a ton of extra power from the CPU, which means Nvidia GPU owners are capable of experiencing a lot of old games at more modern resolution levels without buying more technology. Some other recent games to benefit from this upgrade areCrysis RemasteredandCall of Duty: Warzone.
ForRed Dead Redemption 2fans, the wait won’t be too long. Although there isn’t an announced date yet for the DLSS update to release, Nvidia says it is “coming soon.” The news of DLSS support for PC players comes as yet another nugget of good news for fans of the western survival experience over the past month. In May alone,Red Dead Redemption 2received a VR mod, benefitted from some price drops during GameStop’s Memorial Day sale, and news broke that several of the actors from the game would be happy to return for a potential sequel.
So much discussion around a game from 2018 further supports the idea that Rockstar knows how to build its games for longevity. AlthoughRed Dead Redemption 2’s online component may not receive the same attention these days asGrand Theft Auto Online, it still boasts a ton of loyal fans. Rockstar’s attention to detail when crafting its wild west has not gone unnoticed, inspiring ageneration ofRed Dead Redemption 2gamers hunting for detailsin nearly every aspect of the game.
