A new update has been added to the recent Red Dead Redemption port, and it includes a surprise 60 FPS mode. However, don’t get too excited if you play the title on PlayStation 4 or the Nintendo Switch.

That might change with this update.

Hopefully, this is a sign of things to come rather than a one-off update, and it will continue to be closer to what fans actually want. You can buy the new port on Nintendo Switch and PS4.
