Red Dead Redemption 2 Animal Graphics compared to GTA 5

WITH Grand Theft Auto 6 a few more months, and Red Dead Online borderline support is non-existent, rockstar fans kill time comparing animal models Red Dead Redemption 2 and Grand Theft Auto 5. As you might expect, Red Dead Redemption 2However, the 's models are more impressive GTA 5's hold up pretty well for the most part.

Red Dead Redemption 2 having more detailed animals makes sense for several reasons. The first and most impressive is that Red Dead 2 launched on PS4 and Xbox One and takes full advantage of the power of the latest generation of consoles. While GTA 5 it was ported to those consoles and shined brightly on them with several improvements, debuting at the end of the PS3 and Xbox 360 eras, and naturally having less impressive visuals than the Rockstar Games title that came out years later. Plus, being a western, it features a less advanced world, and hunting as a proper mechanic makes sense for Red Dead Redemption 2 improve in your animals.

Grand Theft Auto 5 released on September 17, 2013. Red Dead Redemption 2 released on October 26, 2018 without a developed version of the last generation game.

Red Dead Redemption 2's animals are a step up… Especially its cougars

In a comparison of images shared by Redditor Sufficient-Round6705, the animals that appear in both games are depicted together. The creatures in question are rabbits, boars, pigs, cows, wolves and cougars. Especially, Red Dead Redemption 2The rabbit 's stand out because the individual hairs are visible, as well as some snow on his back. His ears are also fluffier, which adds to the sense of realism. Farm life is very similar between the two games, only with Red Dead Redemption 2boasts a more detailed hide, as cow bones can be seen through its leathery exterior. The wolves look significantly better inside Red Dead Redemption 2 also with different shades on their fur that make the models more vivid.

It's takeaway for the most part Red Dead Redemption 2Animal models look incredible, but GTA 5's are better than one would expect from a 12 year old game. However, the crime-focused open-world title is really showing its age when it comes to its big cat design. While Red Dead 2The puma looks just as terrifying as the beast in reality, its body reflecting both speed and strength, the mountain lion v GTA 5 is — for lack of a better word — pretty goofy. In addition to some comically large paws, the cat's eyes are huge and her ears don't look quite right. Combine that with the slightly aged textures and the animal has attracted the attention of several commenters.

While the cougar has quickly become a source of memes, it has even been compared to the dog animation from the original Toy Story from users like vespuci0, it's really the only animal that stands out for all the wrong reasons and once again highlights Rockstar's attention to detail. And even though Red Dead Redemption 2 has a lead in animal models for now, that will change soon, as GTA 6 it harnesses the power of the PS5 and Xbox Series X and boasts its own selection of wildlife. Some animals confirmed for GTA 6 are as follows:

Boar
Eels
Sea turtles
Panthers
Dolphins
Sharks
Deer
Alligators
Foxes
raccoons
Ducks
Canine

With many other animals that escaped and were rumored, such as bears, whales, and snakes, GTA 6The open world will boast an even more interesting animal ecosystem than its sister series. And with more animals that can be directly compared between games, like alligators, it should be easy to show off the graphical fidelity of Rockstar's latest game.
