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, DX12 API.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is equally tough to play on Ultra settings, and here the RTX 4060 finds itself noticeably slower than the RX 7600, and is instead level with the likes of the A750 and RX 6650 XT. We do, however, see one of the biggest generational uplifts versus the RTX 3060, with the 4060 coming in 22% faster.

1440p is still playable here with an average of 42FPS, but we're still looking at a 10% deficit for the 4060 versus the 7600, with performance on par with the RX 6650 XT.
