Today Rockstar and Sony Interactive Entertainment showcased the content for Red Dead Online — the online portion of Red Dead Redemption 2 — that PS4 owners will be able to enjoy for thirty days before their Xbox One brethren get their hands on it as well.

Looks could kill: The High Roller Double-Action Revolver features a polished steel body with unique period-inspired, beautifully detailed engraving work. The deadly, quick draw revolver comes complete with unique playing card and skull elements carved into the grip. Its superior, quick rate of fire over all other revolvers makes it a great choice for mounted combat.

In an interview with IGN , Senior Producer at Rockstar San Diego, Josh Needleman, stated that players’ experience in Red Dead Online will differ from Grand Theft Auto Online with its more intimate setting and overall change of p

My view is that by their very nature hits are unexpected. That’s the goal. There is an expectation around the table. Of course, there is an expectation of Rockstar Games and there is an expectation on part of consumers, but our job is to exceed those expectations, and fingers crossed, that’s what we’re all setting out to do. We couldn’t predict and we didn’t presume to in regards to Grand Theft Auto V, and we wouldn’t presume to with Red Read Redemption 2. So we’re just hard at work, doing the very best job that we c

Red Dead Online appears to be following the same blueprint as Grand Theft Auto Online, as the online world will blend “narrative with competitive and cooperative gameplay in fun new ways.” Players will be able to work together, or as a lone wolf, as they explore the vast, open world of the wild west. While elements from the single-player campaign will be brought into Red Dead Online, the mode will also act as a product separate from the actual game – much like Grand Theft Auto Online being a separate product from Grand Theft Auto

Strong male leads haven’t always been too prevalent in Rockstar’s games. John Marston, on the other hand, was an exception. While his back story was a bit generic, he had a swagger about him that added to his personality. But having a strong protagonist was only one aspect that made the game’s narrative so spectacular. In short, Red Dead Redemption’s premise revolved around John Marston taking down members of his former gang to save his wife and son. Without giving too much away, the narrative was a well crafted, filled with a likeable cast of characters and scenes that will have anyone sitting at the edge of their seat, but the ending is what made it and set the bar for emotional storytelling. It’s safe to say that Red Dead Redemption went out with a bang (har har).

Red Dead Online , as it is fittingly called, will be free to play for Reddeadstation.com anyone with a PlayStation 4 or Xbox One copy of the game. The Rockstar team has already addressed the fact that there will likely be “turbulence at launch”, but the studio is prepared to work hard with the community to improve upon any of the iss

If you’re interested in the game, you can check out the latest gameplay video and our l ist of five western movies you should really watch before playing it (but don’t forget to watch They Call Me Trinity on top of it).

Red Dead Online will actually come in November and PS4 owners will get access to the Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit, the Red Chestnut Arabian Horse, the Alligator Skin Ranch Cutter Saddle, and the High Roller Double-Action Revolver.

Since it was developed by Rockstar, there were definite similarities between Grand Theft Auto gameplay-wise. Red Dead Redemption wasn’t just Grand Theft Auto in the old west, though; there was something more to the game. Sure, you could talk to your companion while you traversed the open landscape, but Red Dead Redemption had deeper gameplay mechanics than its modern counterpart. While the game was overall a standard third person action shooter, there were parts the completely stood out. It’s a simple feature, but exploring every nook and cranny by way of horse was a unique and fresh way to find various locations. And since the game’s release, riding horses to explore is becoming a more popular trend. The duels were another prominent feature. Utilizing the gunslinger mechanic which slowed down gameplay, duels offered a gruesomely unique experience.
