Red Dead Online's beta goes live for everyone this week
The people who played it during its launch weekend (October 26 through 29) will be able to play on November 29. As previously revealed, legacy locations from Red Dead Redemption will also be visitable, too - most notably locations south of the border, in Mexico. Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the most polished games this generation which is probably why they want the online aspect to follow a similar path. Further details on what Red Dead Online will feature are likely to come tomorrow ahead of the beta's start time.
It always seemed likely such a fighting format would be included in the online version of Red Dead Redemption 2, given the popularity of battle royale variations on other games, such as Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4's Blackout mode. While the game will not include any complex narratives, there will be a online co-op player mode available. "However as with many betas for large scale online experiences such as this, there is always the chance that we may need to implement rank or other stat resets in case of issues".
Friday, November 30th: All players who own Red Dead Redemption 2.
The world of Red Dead Online will be a continually expanding experience. Online outlaws will be able to form Posses of up to seven players and engage in wholesome Wild West activities such as hunting, fishing, sitting around a campfire, and bloody murder.
Here's How To Join The Red Dead Online Beta This Week
That's pretty recognisable to anyone who's played a battle royale this year (and even those who haven't), but Make it Count also comes in a bunch of different varieties.
The "Make It Count" game mode will be comprised of 32 players and involves scavenging for weapons within an ever-shrinking arena - and, of course, it is last cowboy or cowgirl standing. However, the more kills you get, the more points others get for killing you.
Red Dead Online's release schedule is confusing and, probably, unnecessary. Head down to the comments section and let us know!
