It’s very atmospheric and contributes well to the game’s immersive nature. Gunshots feel rightfully loud, and the wildlife sound real and, you can often hear them in the distance. The sound and music score are both sound incredible. Red Dead 2 is one of the most graphically stunning games on consoles today.

The lighting and reflections look great and the first thunderstorm you experience will probably leave you slack-jawed.

It’s only really noticeable when playing in the first-person perspective, however. The main cast looks great, but the NPCs look rigid and robotic up close. The graphics are incredibly gorgeous and detailed everywhere except the faces of NPCs. The game’s visuals are breathtakingly gorgeous. Instead, it feels very human, and it’s a unique take on an epic western. It’s not a story full of giant twists or head-scratching mysteries. By the end of it, you will have run through every emotion possible. The story is long, the voice acting is spot on, and the script is stellar. You play as Arthur Morgan, one of the leading members of the Van Der Linde gang. The game is set in 1899 toward the end of the wild part of the west. It is also by no means perfect and has its own share of glaring issues and faults. In many ways, it’s revolutionary and will be a high talking point among gamers for years to come. The game is absolutely huge in both scale and content. To say that Red Dead Redemption 2 is a big game would be a vast understatement.
