Red Dead Redemption 2: 14 Pointless Details That'll Blow You Mind

11. The Way Terrain Transforms

Judging from what we've seen so far, Red Dead Redemption 2 has to be the most stunning game on current-gen consoles. The world map boasts a stunning array of different environments, all of which boast their own unique challenges.

Take the snowtopped mountains found in the northernly region of the game - they look gorgeous, with snow blanketing paths, hills and more. Said snow has been rendered immaculately, melting in some spots, but several inches deep in others. These deeper areas slow the player and their horse down, providing another challenge to traversal.

So far, we've seen several locations in Red Dead's map, including the urbanised districts of the east coast, the aforementioned wintery areas of the north, the great plains of the midwest, and the swampy marshes of the bayou located down south. The arid, baking heat of Mexico is also set to feature at one point, providing players with a veritable troff of different locales to sit back and admire, as opposed to just one colour pallet all the time.
