Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is amazing. The graphic is amazing (base PS4 model), the world is amazing, all animations, everything about this game is perfect. It is an ideal "being a cowboy" sort of fantasy. I love westerns and wild west setting and this game is dreams come true. The world is one if not the best looking world game ever designed. Everything is so well designed that is breathtaking. There are almost 180 animals in game, the world feels organic and alive. I like gun play and all game mechanics. It is stunning bro. Well deserved 10/10. Game like this is released once every 8-10 years to I will make the most of it. Living the dream wooo hooo !

I came into this game completely blind to the story and previous game which was no problem whatsoever as this is a prequel to the original Red Dead Redemption. To summarize my experience: this was hands down the most invested I’ve ever been in a character and it felt like I was role playing through a movie for most of my experience. The acting was next level and I'm not sure how else to describe this experience other than it was a masterpiece. I am a huge RPG fan and this has to be the most complete one I’ve ever played. Hopefully this sets a standard for games to come.

Just as the titled said, this is by far the best series of western games of all time and this would be the prequel to RDR as you play the events before the original and get a better idea of what happened and a better understanding of the game.

Great game, glad they remastered this for the ps5.

Very fun game, lenient for new gamers/people who are bad at aiming or completing an objective. It is also very clear where objectives are so there is always something to do. Download isn't super long either and you get a cool poster with the game of the map which is nice.

Great game, allowed to play on online with friends.

The story engulfs you in the struggles of a Westerner in 1899 America. The environments are detailed and amazing in true Rockstar fashion. This is a game you don't want to miss.

While the original had been one of my favorite games of all time, I hadn't gotten around to picking up the new one. I'd figure now was a good time to pick up the new one. Wow! The graphics are breathtaking, the world expansive and the story line is almost cinematic. Actually, far as I'm concerned, this game's plot is probably better than ones found of many movies I've seen over the years. Only downside is that this game is so addicting. It's so easy to lose track of time, and it's morning before you know it! Imagine a new version for the PS5?!

The most important thing to understand about this game is it is NOT GTA but in the wild west...Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 are both about creating an engrossing western experience. It is not just running around shooting everything, it is being a cowboy. You have to take care of your horse, your guns, and yourself. The story is rich and full of unique and awesome characters, the combat is very satisfying and all the different things you can do are tons of fun, whether it be hunting legendary animals, fishing, poker, or just riding around on your horse taking in this insanely detailed game world. Pick this game up!

This is probably the most fun Red Dead I've ever played next to the Undead Nightmare.

RDR2 takes everything RDR1 was and puts it on steroids. The amount of details is amazing. RDR2 online also was just released as well, so even more reason to jump on the wagon.

Came in perfect condition and it’s an amazing game

Great game just like GTA 5 but riding horses and shooting rifles, old western style shootouts!

G.O.A.T. - really is one of the most engaging, beautiful and fun games I have every played. Years later still puts A LOT of AAA games to shame

I do think Red Ded Redemption is a better GAME. But it has some clunky bits. But this game keeps and adds a lot that makes it its own thing. I think this is a must have game and it really hits the STORY a beats a bit better. I do think some of the basic formula of this game gets a bit repetitive and the ONLINE is fun but also rife with micro trans. But the story is just very compelling that I do think its worth playing just to experience it.

This game came highly recommended and it is worth every penny spent on it. Beat interactive game I have played.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is an interesting title. In some ways, it honestly feels more like a simulation than an actual game. If you're expecting an action-packed cowboy adventure, you may not get what you're looking for here. If you want to spend 60-100 hours just living life in the old west while trying to survive with your gang, go for it!

Great game! Gets a little boring halfway through but I find the game rather relaxing/soothing to play. This game does not cut corners. When you skin a deer, you skin a deer! You cook the food,, you eat the food.. Mechanics and graphics are excellent. You can also change the lighting of the game from either standard (bright/vibrant) or HDR in Cinema mode which is actually more mutted color range. I purchased this game for 20$ during black friday and still pick up the game here and there just to go hunting .

Metacritic has this rated at #1 on the ps4 console. The user score is slightly lower at 8.5. I believe the user score is number because a lot of gamers who voted did not have the patience to learn the controls which can be a learning curve during the first playthrough. The game is long and does enough to keep you entertained throughout with the storyline, quests, and more. If you like RPG's, are patient, and enjoy games that are immersive, then this game is right for you.

Just amazing game!!!! The graphics and gameplay is absolutely fantastic! I get lost in the storyline!
