Red Dead Redemption 2 PC Update Released Alongside Patch Notes

Red Dead Redemption 2 has gotten a new update.

By Cade Onder

A new Red Dead Redemption 2 patch has been released for PC. Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the most acclaimed video games of all-time. It was Rockstar Games' follow-up to Grand Theft Auto V, a game that also achieved tons of love from fans and critics and has since gone on to become the second best-selling game of all-time. The stakes were high for Red Dead Redemption 2 and yet it exceeded all expectations and is widely regarded as one of Rockstar's best releases ever. 

With that said, over five years later, Red Dead Redemption 2 is still being played all of the time by hundreds of thousands if not millions of people still. It is still selling tons of copies every quarter and even though Rockstar Games isn't supporting the online mode with massive content updates anymore, it is still receiving new updates and patches regularly. A new patch was released this week and it provides a ton of fixes for the game, including some issues that caused the game to crash. You can view the patch notes below.
