Red Dead Redemption is one of the highest-profile games that has been stuck on seventh-gen console hardware. Rockstar's western epic released all the way back in 2010 on Xbox 360 and PS3, with no proper modern port or PC version to speak of. The best we've had has been backwards compatibility support for Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles - which did at least give us a 2160p presentation on Xbox One X and Series X, dropping back to 1440p for Series S.
I initially suspected we were just looking at simple TAA on PS5, but the options menu indicates that FSR2 is actually in use here - AMD's popular temporal upsampling and anti-aliasing solution. The weird thing is that every shot on both PS4 Pro and PS5 seems to resolve to a full 4K resolution, meaning the FSR2 is providing anti-aliasing coverage without a performance benefit, as the game is already running at native resolution.
One notch in favour of the PS5 comes down to shadow quality. The Series X version, just like the Xbox 360 original, has messy shadows at a distance and rough-looking self-shadows for character models. Resolutions get boosted across the board on the new PlayStation version, with much higher resolution shadow maps in every scenario.
Unfortunately, the game's UI also hasn't been updated to match its new output resolution. Red Dead Redemption still largely uses 720p UI elements, with no enhancement whatsoever for the vast majority of the interface. This was perfectly excusable on the backwards-compatible Xbox versions, but it feels really egregious on the brand-new PlayStation releases. The text and icons just look super muddy here, and don't scale well at all to a 4K set.
Performance in Red Dead Redemption across all tested PlayStation consoles is straightforward, for the most part. The game operates with a 30fps frame-rate cap, and hits that target perfectly as far as I can tell. I didn't spot a single dropped frame while playing and my performance capture didn't turn up any trouble spots either. Granted, I didn't have access to later-game content but the Undead Nightmare expansion is pretty explosive right out of the gate, and it ran flawlessly.
