Red Dead Redemption 2
Red Dead Redemption 2, set in the nineteenth century, is a masterpiece that depicts a historically accurate Wild West in vivid detail. Whether you enjoy hunting, fishing, and relaxing around the campfire or you prefer showdowns and standoffs, Red Dead Redemption 2 is the best game you can play to explore the final years of a dwindling American frontier.
You will take on the role of Arthur Morgan, a member of the Van der Linde gang, who are outlaws on the run. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the country hot on their tails, the gang must rob, steal, and fight their way across America's rugged heartland to survive. As the gang's internal divisions deepen, Arthur must choose between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang that raised him.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a sprawling Western tale of loyalty, conviction, and the cost of infamy, chronicling the inevitable collapse of a motley crew of Wild West holdouts fighting against the slow march of civilization and industrialization.
There are so many things to do, so many people to meet, and so many places to explore in Rockstar's most authentic and lived-in open world yet that it's giddyingly overwhelming. Red Dead Redemption 2 isn't just Rockstar's greatest achievement to date; it's a game so devoid of compromise that it's difficult to know where to begin discussing it.
