As always, we will keep you updated as we learn more about the update, which clearly does more than the patch notes convey. How much more, we don't know. You'd assume if there was anything major, it would be outlined, yet again the fix above is fairly notable and it's not been highlighted so who knows what is going on.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is available via PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The game is also playable on PS5, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X, but only via backward compatibility. There's still no word of the game coming to these platforms, natively, via a proper port. For more coverage on the Rockstar Games title, click here.
