A Red Dead Redemption 2 player online has discovered an odd glitch that makes the game's night sky more beautiful than it already is. The visuals in Red Dead Redemption 2 remain incredible, even over five years after its launch, although one bug has actually managed to improve upon this.

While players continue to discover new glitches in Red Dead Redemption 2, many gamers are already thinking about what a potential sequel
