The visuals for the PC version will be better compared to the original console versions.
The welcome news about RDR on PC arrives three weeks after a Rockstar Launcher update leaked the Red Dead Redemption PC port. Metadata from the leaked files disclosed interesting details while an insider witnessed the SteamDB ID of the game.
