The game is no stranger to mods, but this might be the most beautiful way to play RDR2, highlighting the Rockstar Games' world like never before.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is already recognized as one of the most visually impressive games of the last generation. The title has been praised for its detailed and expansive world design, becoming a firm favorite for video game photographers. Red Dead Redemption 2's PC release looks even more wonderful than the console versions of the game, and allows for more creativity with modded content. Players have been modding Red Dead Redemption 2 since its PC launch in 2019, adding new features such as being able to befriend dogs, and even the ability to purchase a house in RDR2.

The mod improves on the base Rockstar title by enhancing "colors, shadows, tonemapping and sharpness," with no overkill preset.

Providing an experience almost as immersive as the RDR2 VR mod, the photorealistic reshade mod gives a crisper and cleaner gameplay experience compared to the vanilla Red Dead Redemption 2. With more color depth and sharpness, the mod breathes new life into the Rockstar classic, offering a more realistic and immersive experience than ever before. Players looking to try out the reshade mode themselves can find it via NexusMods, with the install being a relatively easy process. The mod page even includes a video demonstrating how to install it, for those unsure of applying modded content to their games.
The Red Dead Redemption 2 modding community isn't short of ideas when it comes to improving the original game. Previous mods have not only offered gameplay or graphical adjustments, but have even introduced the weird and wonderful ideas modding is typically known for. A mod released last year replaced the game's horses with ridable mounts, allowing players to ride cougar and more in RDR2. While it seems unlikely that Rockstar is planning new content for the 2018 game, mods are letting fans live out their wildest fantasies.
