Digital Dreams has shared a new video, showing Red Dead Redemption 2 running in 8K on an NVIDIA RTX 3090 with Ray Tracing Reshade. This video showcases Red Dead Redemption 2 at its best, pushing the PC version to its limits.
In order to implement the Ray Tracing Reshade effects, Digital Dreams used Marty McFly’s mod (and its own settings). Now if you already own McFly’s Reshade, you can experiment with its settings and achieve similar results. Yes, these aren’t native Ray Tracing effects. Still, they can noticeably improve the image quality of a game.
Now what’s cool here is that the game runs in native 8K on the NVIDIA RTX 3090. Digital Dreams claimed that they used Ultra Max settings. Unfortunately, though, there isn’t any FPS overlay so we can see the game’s performance at such a high resolution.
As we’ve already reported, Rockstar and NVIDIA will add official support for DLSS in a future update. Thus, we can expect more GPUs to run the game in 8K. That is of course unless they hit a VRAM limitation, even with DLSS.
Speaking of 8K videos, here are Grand Theft Auto 5 and The Witcher 3 running in 8K. You can also find Assassin’s Creed Valhalla in 8K. Oh, and we have shared Horizon Zero Dawn, Batman Arkham Knight, Battlefield 1 & Metal Gear Solid 5, as well as Diablo 3, Battlefield Bad Company 2, COD: Modern Warfare running in 8K.
Enjoy!

Looks incredible!
I’m waiting for the DLSS patch so I can play in 16k…
reshade is NOT ray tracing.
That shader is tracing rays, it’s just screen space and not HW accelerated…
thats not even close to the same thing
Nobody said it’s the same thing, but it’s still ray tracing…
ray tracing involves simulating rays bouncing off surfaces and reacting to different materials and textures just like reality. reshade is nothing more than a glorified filter, it cannot communicate with a game engine like a game that has ray tracing designed into it.
Educate yourself about how the shader works before you spout a bunch of nonsense.
nothing new
If you’re out of content and news, I have a lot of videos of my dogs just playing in my yard. I can send it to you if you want.
June 2021, and this game still runs terrible, cannot get a stable frame rate, I mean its playable, and its not bad, but come on, optimize your sh*t RockStar
