Rockstar Games announced that last year’s high-profile sequel Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming to PC on November 5. Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming first to Rockstar’s own Rockstar Launcher, as well as the Epic Games Store before releasing on Steam a month later in December.
Red Dead Redemption 2 presents a gorgeous open world western, and the PC version goes even further with new graphical enhancements that increase draw distance, provide higher quality lightning, and improved textures. The PC version will also offer HDR and 4K support, as well as multi-monitor and widescreen setups.
These enhancements come with a beefy cost. Here are the recommended PC specs for Red Dead Redemption 2:
