Red Dead Redemption 2 has just received update 1.04 . You would ordinarily expect an update with such an incremental version number to be a pretty small one, but it weighs in at 1.4GB, so it seems substantial enough. That’s because, according to the official patch notes for the patch, it seems to address quite a lot.
If you were expecting a fix the missing people in camp bug, which has stalled the progress for many a player, and has been without a doubt the most commonly raised bug with the game, then, well, you’re out of luck. Also not addressed is the issue with the game’s HDR implementation, another common complaint.
Instead, it seems to have focused on fixing a bunch of other bugs, across both, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online. You can see the full patch notes for yourself below, but it seems like a fair amount of possible problems with the game have been addressed.
