Red Dead Redemption's New Port Surprises Gamers with Unusual Horse Glitch

The much-awaited release of Red Dead Redemption on the PS4 and Nintendo Switch has evoked mixed reactions among gaming enthusiasts. The launch has quashed the anticipation of the game's remaster, but many have welcomed the migration to more contemporary gaming platforms. Amidst concerns about a possible recurrence of the Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition's launch issues, the Red Dead Redemption port appears to have fared better.

The Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition's launch was plagued by performance issues, subpar visuals, and gameplay glitches. Fans had expressed apprehension that the Red Dead Redemption port might suffer from similar problems. Fortunately, the game seems to have steered clear of most of these issues, although it is not entirely devoid of bugs.

Despite a recent review bombing of Red Dead Redemption, the game appears to be performing satisfactorily for the majority of players. However, an unexpected glitch has surfaced that has captured the attention of gamers. A user, hornet2173, shared a video of a horse behaving in a peculiar manner. The horse, ridden by the player, appears to be stuck in a bucking position, with only the front hooves making contact with the ground.

In the shared video, the horse's hind legs continue to execute a running motion at a low frame rate initially. This action, however, abruptly ceases, leaving a levitating horse traversing the rugged West. The bizarre glitch has left gamers intrigued, adding an unexpected twist to the game's overall experience.

The launch of Red Dead Redemption on PS4 and Nintendo Switch has been largely successful, despite the odd bugs. The game's overall performance has been praised, even amidst the unexpected hovering horse glitch. As developers work to iron out these minor kinks, gamers continue to explore the rugged West, revelling in the surprises that the game has to offer.

We would love to hear your experiences with the game. Have you encountered any other glitches? What's your take on the hovering horse? Please share your thoughts in the comments below.
