Red Dead Redemption 2 is a 2018 action-adventure game developed and published by Rockstar Games. The game is the third entry in the Red Dead series and is a prequel to the 2010 game Red Dead Redemption. Red Dead Redemption 2 was released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in October 2018, and for Microsoft Windows and Stadia in November 2019. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Rockstar Advance Game Engine (RAGE). We test by manually selecting Ultra settings (or High where Ultra is not available), TAA, Vulkan API.

Moving onto Red Dead Redemption 2, at 1080p the RX 6600 XT is averaging just shy of 60FPS, which is not bad all when using Ultra settings in this game. It's once more dead level with the RX 5700 XT, while we're only looking at a 6% lead over the RTX 3060, which isn't that great considering the 15% difference in MSRPs.

Up at 1440p, not much really changes, and again I have to say I am just impressed this GPU is still capable of averaging 48FPS using Ultra settings. It's still about 5% faster than the RTX 3060, but it is well behind the RTX 3060 Ti which can average over 60FPS at this resolution.
