Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America's unforgiving heartland, featuring a vast and atmospheric world that will also provide the foundation for a brand-new online multiplayer experience.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America at the dawn of the modern age.

America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed.

After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him.

Built from the ground up for the latest hardware, Red Dead Online blends the classic multiplayer of the original Red Dead Redemption with the best of everything we have learned since then about creating deep multiplayer experiences. The result is something completely new and fun, and an experience that will continue to expand and evolve over time as we gain valuable feedback from our community in the Beta period.

Explore the 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.

Get Double RDO$ and XP in Overrun

There’s nothing more American than a good old-fashioned turf war. The Featured Series celebrates that tradition with Overrun — run wild and grab up as much territory as you can and defend it from your foes. All competitors will walk away with Double RDO$ and XP through November 22, so it’ll be well worth your while.

Call to Arms XP Bonus

After the bedlam on All Hallows’ Eve, the prairie has settled back into its usual rhythm of everyday work and unfettered violence. The townsfolk of Strawberry and Fort Mercer need your help holding out against an onslaught of armed invaders. Brave players can earn Double XP, both by defending Strawberry from November 9 to November 15 and Fort Mercer from November 16 to November 22. To sweeten the deal, offering your services and weapons by participating in Call to Arms will land you a Reward for 2,000 Club XP.
