Customer Ratings & Reviews

First off being a huge fan of the first Red Dead Redemption, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this game, but I had to, and then wait some more, and a bit more, then, again, a bit more. Having already lost a little steam from the waiting game, I was certain that once the game was in my hands that I would once again have the exciting world of an outlaw cowboy at the onset of the 20th century at my fingertips. To a large extent I was not disappointed, the visuals are beyond simply impressive, they are near reality in a box. But a game is not good simply because of its A/V fidelity, it needs a lot more to reach that status. Overall the thing about this game that ultimately pushed me back to playing AC Odyssey was simply that there was too much gameplay with too little direction, and as near as I could tell, there was no way to return to the game, after a break, and find out what objective you left off at. This forced me to go back to an earlier save point and start the mission over. Frustrating for someone who is a casual gamer that does not always have/get to finish each mission before needing to stop playing. Overall I would say that Rockstar created a mind-blowingly beautiful, albeit convoluted at times, poorly directed game.

Rockstar hit it out of the park with this one. Highly immersive game from beginning to end. Great story, relatable characters, and tons of side content to do that manages to feel important instead of just busywork. It's so easy to just get lost in the world, getting sidetracked from whatever you were doing because some other interesting thing popped up. I played it for probably over 100 hours, and played every day for a solid month. Have not played the online mode, so I can't comment on that; however, I would highly recommend it for the single player alone.

Great visuals and immersive storytelling. Only problem I have with the game is the controls can feel a bit janky at times.

This game has decent graphics. The story is great so far and gameplay is very fun. It does take a while to load so start early when you are ready to start playing.

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 !

Love the game and story, so much attention to detail in this one.

This is the best game I've ever played. There are many things you can do. The story is one of the best I've seen in video games.

After all the hype, I was pretty excited to start on this one. Excellent graphics, cinematics, and open world designs. Very realistic and detailed. That being said, it moves a little more slowly than I'd like. I don't like having to stop to eat all the time, or have to remember to feed the horse. They may as well make you have to use the bathroom every few hours. Kind of mundane. I like realistic in some aspects, this was just an irritant for me. So, instead of binge playing the way I normally would with something like a GTAV or a FF, I find myself playing for an hour here or there, and not really missing it when I'm not playing... So yea, great game but also disappointed. I still would buy it, but I wish I had waited until the price came down on this one.

Well worth the purchase price, game is incredibly well done from graphics to story - and plenty long enough to keep you occupied for dozens of hours just to complete the story!

This game won the best narrative award at the VGA 2018 awards last night. What else is there to say? If you enjoy an open world game with a deep story then this game is for you.

Fun game to play if you like a story to a game good graphics

This game is awesome! The graphics are amazing. The only real downside is that it takes up a lot of space on your PS4. Other than that, super glad I bought this!

Everyone must play this if you like westerns and/or open world games...this is not just GTA V with a cowboy hat, it’s much more...just stop reading reviews and play this game!

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!

Great game, I highly recommend it. I really like a good open space western.

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.

This is the best game I have played in awhile. The graphics are great and even better in 4K. The story line is huge but totally sucks you in. Would recommend this to everyone.

We were well over due for a new red dead redemption game and this does not dissapoint. It is a great story and the gameplay mechanics and amount to do in the game are great!

Love this game, so detailed and attention to detail makes this game feel more alive. Would recommend to anyone looking fir a good story game!

This game simply puts you in the mind of Arthur Morgan. You become him. It's very immersive without killing everything in sight being the end game (unless you choose for Arthur to be that kinda guy). Small choices along the way determine the game play like this thing we all visit now and then...life. I love it!
