It’s been mysteriously quiet on the Red Dead Online front since Red Dead Redemption 2 itself was revealed. Barely any info to go off of and a promised but vague November release date hasn’t stopped fans from getting excited for it all the same, but now we know when it will finally arrive.
Tomorrow. Well, at least for those who bought the Ultimate Edition of the game. The rest of us will have to wait until Wednesday, November 28th, that is if we bought the game between the 26th and 29th of October. Everyone else has to wait until November 30th.
A confusing launch for sure, but one that probably makes sense considering how ghastly the launch of GTA Online was all those years ago. I must have created about ten different characters and lost all progress each time.
As for what we can expect, Rockstar shared the following:
“With the gameplay of Red Dead Redemption 2 as its foundation, Red Dead Online transforms the vast and deeply detailed landscapes, cities, towns, and habitats of Red Dead Redemption 2 into a new, living online world ready to be shared by multiple players. Create and customize your character, tailor your abilities to suit your play style, and head out into a new frontier full of things to experience.
“Explore this huge world solo or with friends. Form or join a posse to ride with up to seven players; gather around the fire at your camp; head out hunting or fishing; visit bustling towns; battle enemy gangs and attack their hideouts; hunt for treasure; take on missions and interact with familiar characters from across the five states; or fight against other outlaws in both spontaneous skirmishes and pitched set-piece battles; compete with other players or whole posses in open world challenges and much more.”
Are you excited for Red Dead Online or are you just happy to keep on wandering around on your lonesome in Saint Denis? Have you even had time to make a dent in the single-player yet? Let us know down below.
From our Red Dead Redemption 2 review:
“Despite it having some wrinkles, Red Dead Redemption 2 introduces more than enough innovations to provide one of the most immersive and captivating open world games ever made.”
