I have been playing red dead redemption 2 on ps4 pro n i simply loved it lots. However, I was not really impressed with the graphics as they look abit too mushy.

I'm looking to get Xbox series x just to replay n immerse in rdr2 world in native 4k resolution n sharper details. I can't afford a high end PC.

Am I weird for doing this?

Not at all. Well, a little if RDR2 is your only reason. I mean, if you got a ps5 you wouldn't have to repurchase the game.

i thought the graphics would be similar in PS5 vs a PS4 Pro? This was based on my youtube research. Please correct me if I'm wrong though.

I went from a ps4 pro with an SSD upgrade to a PS5 and noticed an improvement. Mainly in framerate stability. It's just really smooth on the PS5. I'm assuming it's the same on the Series X.

Playing on Series X looks significantly better than PS5 version. Series X version is true 4K whereas PS5 is not.

This is true, there is a noticeable difference between the ps5 and series X , with the series X coming out on top. I primarily use my ps5 for its exclusives and everything else gets played on my series X.

Both PS4 pro and One X versions of the game has 4k resolution but in checkerboard rendering. Only improvement PS5 and Series X brings to the table is a stable 30 fps as the game has not been updated for current gen. Also One X version probably has better texture and shadow quality since that was the stronger hardware.

But

You can play first RDR on Series X and it's stable and beautiful, which is a big win.

Now if you'll excuse me I will go and apologize to my playstation collection

Yeah, kinda. The game has no upgrades on next-gen (because R* hates us) so it doesn't look any different on Series X/PS5 vs. XBONE/PS4. It would run better, especially in 4K, but the graphics won't really change. It's definitely better than playing it on XBONE/PS4 but don't get your expectations too high.

I thought RDR2 looked great but the framerate on Xbox One was terrible.

I confirm the framerate on the PS4 is as bad.
