Red Dead Redemption 2
Rockstar Games’ magnum opus, Red Dead Redemption 2, is more than just an emotional prequel to the first game, outlining the fate of Arthur Morgan and the van der Linde gang. It’s more than an open-world title where you mull about, ticking items off a checklist. It’s a painstaking recreation of Wild West life, with everything from hunting and skinning animals to proper upkeep of one’s person, realistically depicted.
It’s full of stories and mysteries to encounter, whether you’re learning more about the unfortunate girl trapped in the outhouse or discovering slaves kept by a shopkeeper. Such is the thought and attention to detail that fans still find new things to this day – all while admiring the gorgeous visuals and presentation that can stand alongside today’s current-gen greats.
