The latest iteration of Ubisoft’s dance-along franchise will support online multiplayer for up to six people at a time, unlocking the full game to be played with friends. The studio promises regular free content updates “for years to come,” including fresh game modes, songs and themed seasons.

Ubisoft

Just Dance 2023 is due to hit PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and Nintendo Switch on November 22nd. It’ll come to Google Stadia at a later date.

This marks the first time in Just Dance history that players will be able to get down with friends live and online. The new Online Groups feature in Just Dance 2023 allows players to team up with people they know or other folks around the world, and it has an emoji communication system. The game supports cross-platform play. And, of course, there’s always local multiplayer for in-person dance-offs.

Just Dance 2023 will include 40 new universes and songs at launch, including “Physical” by Dua Lipa and “More” by K/DA. With a focus on transitioning Just Dance into a live service, rather than a series of discrete titles, Ubisoft will likely have a regular cadence of new material to drop on its dancers post-launch, so don’t stress too much about the track list for now.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Multiplayer: Big Red Dead Online countdown for Rockstar update https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-big-red-dead-online-countdown-for-rockstar-update/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-big-red-dead-online-countdown-for-rockstar-update/#respond Sun, 24 Mar 2019 08:16:14 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-big-red-dead-online-countdown-for-rockstar-update/

Fans can look forward to a brand new update dropping for Red Dead Redemption 2 Online in the near future that will add a very exciting single-player feature.

Rockstar has announced that while it will continue to offer smaller patches throughout Spring, a much larger patch is being worked on.

And this is good news for fans who have been waiting for more story missions and other activities on PS4 and Xbox One.

From what has been confirmed by the development team so far, new Showdown Modes and Racing Modes will be arriving throughout April.

These will be more like the stuff already available in the game and will likely be paired with new cosmetic items.

However, this will be followed by a much larger update that has yet to be given a Red Dead Online release date.

The good news is that Rockstar has confirmed it will arrive during Spring 2019, meaning it has to launch before the end of June.

Unfortunately, the big Red Dead 2 update will not arrive in March and sounds like it could be being planned for early May, rather than April.

But plans can change and we could see something much bigger arrive in the coming weeks then we first thought.

So the countdown for the new content can begin for fans hungry to do something new on PS4 and Xbox.

More A Land of Opportunities Missions will be part of the big update, where fans will get to continue Jessica LeClerk’s search for revenge as you explore the path of a Gunslinger or an Outlaw

This will launch alongside new Free Roam Mission givers and mission types, with Rockstar hinting at some single player cameos.

Red Dead Online is set in the years before the single player story so expect to encounter a range of new and familiar faces, they have warned.

One of the main standout additions will be a feature that has worked so well in single-player to make it fun to play.

The introduction of dynamic events will no doubt help fill up the empty online world and will certainly add more flavour to roaming the West.

Players will be able to fight off ambushes, initiate rescues, defend folks in need and more as you travel across the world.

And there are hints that bigger features are being worked on for the rest of 2019, with Rockstar explaining in a new statement: “In the coming months, we will continue to add features and content that will allow players to immerse themselves in the world of Red Dead Online in brand new ways as they choose what kind of life they will make for themselves in frontier America.”

This will come as welcome news to fans hoping to see Red Dead Online catch up with GTA Online when it comes to content.

“Our experience of building other online worlds has helped us create a more evolved foundation for the open spaces of Red Dead Online, but the world of Red Dead Online will evolve in its own unique direction – one in which players have greater freedom to customize their play style uniquely over time, allowing them to sink into the world and their character and feel more connected to the experience of living as cowboys, outlaws and gunslingers in the wilds of 19th century America,” Rockstar adds.

Red Dead Redemption 2 multiplayer: New Red Dead Online news following shock update https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-new-red-dead-online-news-following-shock-update/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-new-red-dead-online-news-following-shock-update/#respond Sun, 10 Mar 2019 09:09:42 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-new-red-dead-online-news-following-shock-update/

Red Dead Redemption 2 Online has new rewards available to fans ready to make a few changes to their Rockstar Social account 

But this isn’t the only big updates fans received this week, following news on how Red Dead Online has been performing on PS4 and Xbox One.

It was only recently revealed that the popular multiplayer mode saw a drop in the number of active players in January.

This was revealed in a Super Data report that also noted digital game revenue was down across many platforms for the start of the year.

But while that may have come as a surprise for some fans, there has been other good news shared this week by Rockstar Games.

The studio released a new update this week that they say has improved the game and will be followed by further changes.

This has been helped along by the Red Dead Online beta, which doesn’t appear to be ending anytime soon.

“This beta period allows us to shape and improve the fundamentals of that world before the journey of Red Dead Online truly begins,” Rockstar told fans earlier this week.

“As Red Dead Online evolves, we will keep adding and improving features to give you a deeper connection to the world, your character, your horse and your weapons, as well as adding new gameplay that will help players carve out their own fate across the lawless frontier.”

As many suspected, Rockstar is now drip-feeding new content into the game, which could continue over the coming weeks.

The Evans Repeater, a powerful long-range rifle, was added via the latest update, alongside the Fool’s Gold Free Roam event.

But the thing that probably caught the eye of RDR2 fans the most was the announcement of a new care package.

“We appreciate all the support you’ve shown thus far during the beta period, and this week all Red Dead Online Beta participants will receive a special care package (redeemed either at your camp’s lockbox or at any post office across the five states) as a show of our appreciation,” Rockstar adds.

“This includes a host of items to help you survive life on the frontier and tackle any new Daily Challenges in Free Roam or Free Roam Events, on mission or in a Showdown Series.”

Fans can also grab 10 gold bars this weekend if they are willing to add 2-Step Verification to their Social Club account.

With 2-Step Verification enabled, signing in to your account on a new device will require your Nickname or Email, Password, and a Verification Code generated by an Authenticator on your mobile phone, tablet, or browser.

It should be noted that a new Verification Code is required when signing in from an unrecognised device or location.

The good news is that when you perform this task, Rockstar Games will reward you with GTA$ 500,000 in your GTA Online account and 10 Gold Bars in your Red Dead Online Beta account.

They have also promised “Additional future benefits in both GTA Online, and the Red Dead Online Beta,” which sounds like more bonuses are planned.

When it comes to future content, it appears that Rockstar has plenty in the pipeline.

New property-buying options are expected to be added to the game in the coming months, alongside other features found in GTA Online.

A new layer of money-making options will also be announced; however, little has been shared on this subject yet.

New vehicles are expected to be made available to fans who have the cash to buy them, with a War Wagon leaked last year.

A recent Take-Two Interactive earnings call confirmed that the company is completely satisfied with the performance of Red Dead Online.

Take-Two believes Red Dead 2 has built better “early traction” with gamers than GTA Online and are pleased with the player base numbers.

“Obviously the experiences are a work in progress, and there will be a lot more content to come,” Take-Two’s CEO Strauss Zelnick revealed.

“But in terms of comparing where Grand Theft Auto Online was in terms of engagement at this stage of the game, versus where Red Dead Online at this stage in the game, Red Dead Online has more engagement, is doing better and has a lot more early traction. Which we think is very encouraging.”

Red Dead Redemption 2 Multiplayer: Big update for Red Dead Online and Rockstar https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-big-update-for-red-dead-online-and-rockstar/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-big-update-for-red-dead-online-and-rockstar/#respond Sun, 24 Feb 2019 10:02:46 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-big-update-for-red-dead-online-and-rockstar/

The next Red Dead Redemption 2 Online update can’t come soon enough for a lot of players finding themselves running out of things to do in multiplayer.

The next major expansion for PS4 and Xbox One has been confirmed for this week and will add a lot of new content for all players.

Fans have shared their own thoughts online about the issues facing the game, which is known to have a healthy install base.

“Now the issue is lack of content,” one user writes following the Red Dead Online update announcement.

“There’s isn’t anything to do other than the same 6 mundane & boring activities that’s been there from the start (other than Gun Rush) & that’s being kind because I counted hunting & fishing separate.

“It’s just the same thing over & over & over. I almost think it’s part of the plan because they know people will come back to the game once they add more activities & add houses/farms & businesses.

“But I feel like they are holding out because the people that have been playing the whole time & saving cash will be able to buy a starter home & business & people coming back will want to catch up with the others so they will pay for gold, just so they can be on an even playing field. I legit think it’s part of their marketing plan.”

It won’t be seen as the most positive feedback but should prove useful to the development team trying to shape the new multiplayer experience.

Rockstar Games is following a similar development pattern they took with GTA Online, layering new content and activities over months and years.

And the start of that is being promised on February 26, for Red Dead Online.

Rockstar has revealed that new weapons, cosmetic items, events and Showdown Modes will be going live before the end of March.

New fishing features are being added, while a number of gameplay improvements and features are also being worked on.

A new Fool’s Gold Free Roam Event, where players will compete to control a protective suit of Golden Armor, is one of the main highlights.

Players will have to fight to take down the armour wearer to earn points and claim it as their own, then turn the tables and earn points for kills while wearing the armour.

Something fans have also noticed is that Rockstar Games are holding back on some secret stuff they haven’t announced.

A line in the latest Red Dead 2 statement reads: “Also starting on Tuesday, February 26 lookout for new content and special promotions weekly.”

It certainly sounds like Rockstar is teasing extra content which could be revealed later this week.

Rockstar may also be hoping to drip feed some of this new stuff over the coming weeks, like they do in GTA Online.

That means we could be getting a range of new vehicle options, or perhaps something a little different.

If Rockstar does as they have in the past, next week will see an update go live, followed by new content going live every week after that.

It means March could be littered with new items being added to the game on PS4 and Xbox One.

Fans have been told that new clothing to buy and emotes to unlock is on the way, as well as new Daily Challenges that will help keep players busy.

Other confirmed updates include new story missions being added to the game, which are sorely needed.

Rockstar is known for their large Online expansions, so it’s very hard to tell just how much could be coming next to PS4 and Xbox One.

Dropping new story content each week could prove a masterstroke, but it all remains a big question mark until the next Red Dead Online update goes live.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Multiplayer: Great news for Red Dead Online after Rockstar update https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-great-news-for-red-dead-online-after-rockstar-update/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-great-news-for-red-dead-online-after-rockstar-update/#respond Sun, 10 Feb 2019 10:56:01 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-multiplayer-great-news-for-red-dead-online-after-rockstar-update/

Red Dead Redemption 2 Online is in a healthy state

There’s no doubt that Red Dead Redemption 2 online has found a big audience on PS4 and Xbox One.

And while fans are still clamouring for new content, it appears Rockstar Games and their parent company are pretty happy with how things are progressing.

While still in beta, Red Dead Online offers only a slice of what the dev team are hoping to achieve.

This is clear when you look at how GTA Online has expanded since its initial launch.

But it’s also fair to say that fans are ready to see more from Rockstar Games, including new missions to complete and things to buy.

A recent earnings call with Take-Two Interactive provided some big answers on the health of Red Dead Online.

It revealed that a lot of people are still playing it and that expectations have been met for the beta.

And that’s very good news for the future of Red Dead Redemption multiplayer mode on all platforms.

If players had been sucked into the single-player but had abandoned the online experience, Rockstar Games may have turned their attention away from further multiplayer DLC.

However, from what was revealed during the report, things are looking good for the future of Red Dead Online.

“It’s a beta offering, of course. And it’s gone about as we had expected,” Take-Two’s CEO Strauss Zelnick revealed.

“What’s really exciting is that during December, combined monthly active users of Grand Theft Auto Online and Red Dead Online took Rockstar to a new record. We feel great about it.

“Obviously the experiences are a work in progress, and there will be a lot more content to come. But in terms of comparing where Grand Theft Auto Online was in terms of engagement at this stage of the game, versus where Red Dead Online at this stage in the game, Red Dead Online has more engagement, is doing better and has a lot more early traction. Which we think is very encouraging.”

Those last comments are certainly surprising when you think back to just how popular GTA Online was during its first months.

So if Red Dead Online is doing better from an engagement point of view, it can only mean good things for multiplayer mode.

Zelnick wouldn’t confirm whether there were hopes RDR2 would replicate GTA Online’s ongoing success, but it seems positivity is surrounding Red Dead Online.

Red Dead Online will receive further updates in 2019

“The title shipped more in its first 15 days than the first Red Dead Redemption shipped in eight years, and it has the highest opening weekend of any title in entertainment history of any sort – $ 725 million,” Zelnick added.

“So we do feel really good about it. Naturally, it’s doing much better than expected, and we had high expectations. It is very hard to call where we’ll go from here, other than to say we’re thrilled with what it has achieved so far.”

Zelnick also shared insight into how the expanding free-to-play market is being perceived at Take-Two, a company which holds some of the biggest franchises in the world.

“So what we found is you give consumers what they want. That’s often reflected in reviews and Metacritic scores and the Red Dead Redemption 2 type Grant Theft Auto V with the 97 score,” Zelnick revealed.

“They will show up, and they show up in quantity. So I’m not worried at all about someone else establishing a free-to-play approach. As long as our quality continues to be stellar, and that’s a very big “as long as”, that’s what we have to execute against every day.

“Consumers aren’t actually super price sensitive where entertainment is concerned. Or said another way, if we put out something that people don’t want, you can kind of price it whatever price you want, they’re not going to show up for it.”

So no worries about a standalone FTP GTA Online or Red Dead Online popping up anytime soon.

Unfortunately, there was no big announcement on what new content could be coming next to Red Dead Online.

Rockstar Games has provided a short overview of what will be released next, some of which sounds more exciting than others.

New Races and Showdown Modes are coming, activities that are secondary in nature for most online players.

Fans have been told that fresh clothing to buy and emotes to unlock are on the way, as well as new Daily Challenges that will help keep players busy.

Other confirmed updates include new story missions being added to the game, which are sorely needed.

So what could be coming next to Red Dead Redemption 2 multiplayer that Rockstar hasn’t mentioned yet?

New “War Wagons” with mounted weapons and armour plating have been reported but does not have an official release date at this time.

Big new content, like properties to buy and special missions to enjoy, may not be made available until the end of the beta, which isn’t expected for several weeks at least.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Online UPDATE: PS4 and Xbox RDR2 multiplayer DLC revealed? https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-online-update-ps4-and-xbox-rdr2-multiplayer-dlc-revealed/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-online-update-ps4-and-xbox-rdr2-multiplayer-dlc-revealed/#respond Wed, 12 Dec 2018 21:23:45 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-redemption-2-online-update-ps4-and-xbox-rdr2-multiplayer-dlc-revealed/

While Rockstar Games has been focused on removing bugs this week in Red Dead Redemption 2 Online, more content updates are being planned.

So far, the development team have been dedicated to rebalancing the Red Dead Online experience to make it as fun as possible.

Changes to the economy have been made, while the latest Red Dead Redemption 2 1.04 patch looked to remove bugs.

So what might the next Red Dead Redemption 2 Online update include?

While the game remains in beta, there will probably be more rebalancing done to various parts of the RDR2 Online experience.

However, it also seems pretty likely that we’re going to start getting multiplayer modes and activities too.

One player believes they might know what might be coming next to the game.

In a new post on Reddit, it’s been revealed that a “Gun Rush” mode for both solo and teams has been spotted.

This apparently popped up in the Free Roam player menu, before quickly disappearing.

Rockstar Games has not commented on what new content they have planned, only going as far as to say they have big plans.

It’s unclear what this new game mode type will be until Rockstar officially releases it.

We currently don’t have a release date for this new content, and it could be that this was a simple mistake on the part of the development team.

However, while we can’t confirm if or when this new game mode will land, it does seem likely that we’ll see a new Red Dead Redemption 2 update pop up soon.

For those who are still new to Red Dead Online and want to know about the basics, Rockstar has released some tips for what everything means.

Player Menu: Tap d-pad left to bring up the Player Menu. From here you can find many practical tools and features: see other players in the session and your friends, form or join a Posse, manage your Camp and horses, quickly join matches or series, adjust your voice chat options – select Everyone to chat with everyone in your proximity, or isolate your chat to your Posse, Friends or Crew only – and much more.

Fast Travel: Visit Fast Travel signposts to quickly travel to where your Posse or friends are located and various other locations around the map, or return to your camp for a flat fee.

A Land of Opportunities: Visit Horley in Blackwater to start A Land of Opportunities, a cooperative series of story-based missions that can push your honor high or low based on your decisions. You’ll get to know some new characters in Red Dead Online, fight alongside fellow outlaws and earn a pretty penny along the way. If you made all positive honor decisions throughout and want to see how the storyline changes and push your honor in the other direction, you can replay making all negative honor decisions (and vice versa), all while receiving further payout and experience.

Treasure Maps: When you hit Rank 10 you’ll receive a Treasure Map, uncover the treasure for Gold and Cash. You’ll receive Treasure Maps for every 5 ranks after that. There’s also a chance you’ll uncover a Treasure Map when looting enemy bodies after clearing a Hideout or surviving an Ambush.

Catalogue: Hold down left on the d-pad to bring up the Catalogue and pick up provisions, tonics, weapons, ammo and more while on the go. Alternatively, when not in-game, purchases can be made via the web Catalogue on Social Club. Once purchased, you can recover most of your goods from your Camp’s lockbox or the Post Office, new weapons can be found on your horse and clothing will be added to your Wardrobe. Any horses or saddles will go to the Stable.

Ability Cards: Utilize different Ability Card categories (combat, recovery and defense) to help you survive the frontier. You can upgrade Ability Cards through 3 tiers of benefits and you can adjust them at any time to suit any scenario: use combat cards for attacking missions where you’ll rely on your weapons, or switch to defensive cards when escorting a wagon.

A new ‘Black Ops 4’ edition includes only multiplayer and Blackout https://briefnews.eu/a-new-black-ops-4-edition-includes-only-multiplayer-and-blackout/ https://briefnews.eu/a-new-black-ops-4-edition-includes-only-multiplayer-and-blackout/#respond Fri, 07 Dec 2018 01:35:25 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/a-new-black-ops-4-edition-includes-only-multiplayer-and-blackout/

Activision is trying something a little different with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4: It’s selling a $ 30 version that drops the Zombies mode, and only includes standard multiplayer and the popular battle royale mode, Blackout. Bad luck if you’re a console player, though — the Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Battle Edition is PC-only for the time being.

This version is compatible with the full game, so if your friends already picked up Black Ops 4, you’ll be able to jump into a Blackout squad with them. If you’re interested, it’s probably worth picking up this version soon, as the price will jump to $ 40 on January 6th. If you decide you’d like to check out Zombies later on, you’ll be able to buy an upgrade to the Digital Standard Edition.

‘Red Dead Online,’ the online multiplayer mode for ‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ launches today as a beta test https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-online-the-online-multiplayer-mode-for-red-dead-redemption-2-launches-today-as-a-beta-test/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-online-the-online-multiplayer-mode-for-red-dead-redemption-2-launches-today-as-a-beta-test/#respond Sat, 01 Dec 2018 22:43:38 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-online-the-online-multiplayer-mode-for-red-dead-redemption-2-launches-today-as-a-beta-test/ Red Dead Redemption 2

  • “Red Dead Redemption 2” came out on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 26, but players have been waiting since release to play “Red Dead Online,” the game’s free multiplayer mode.
  • Rockstar Games originally said “Red Dead Online” would enter public beta in mid-November and has told players to expect some growing pains early on.
  • Players will be able to explore the world of “Red Dead Online” alone or with friends. It’s expected to offer a mix of storytelling, competitive, and cooperative gameplay.
  • Rockstar plans to support “Red Dead Online” with constant updates and adjustments. Healthy ongoing support for “Grand Theft Auto Online” has helped Rockstar sell more than 100 million copies of “Grand Theft Auto V” since 2013.

Rockstar Games’ “Red Dead Redemption 2” was one of the year’s most anticipated games, releasing on October 26th to plenty of fanfare. But a major portion of the game has been missing for the past month, the online multiplayer mode, “Red Dead Online.”

In September, Rockstar revealed that “Red Dead Online” wouldn’t be ready on release and would enter beta testing in November. Rockstar developers have said they consider “Red Dead Online” and “Red Dead Redemption 2” to be two different games, though “Red Dead Online” is free for anyone who buys the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions of “Red Dead Redemption 2.” Now, with just a few days left in November, Rockstar is keeping true to its word and rolling out the online beta for all players this week.

Red Dead 2 Online beta FINAL countdown: Multiplayer start times for remaining players https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-2-online-beta-final-countdown-multiplayer-start-times-for-remaining-players/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-2-online-beta-final-countdown-multiplayer-start-times-for-remaining-players/#respond Thu, 29 Nov 2018 11:00:24 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-2-online-beta-final-countdown-multiplayer-start-times-for-remaining-players/

The final countdown is on for the Red Dead 2 Online beta, which is about to go live for all remaining players.

The first Red Dead Redemption 2 Online beta went live for Ultimate Edition owners on November 27, followed by a second phase for day one players on November 28.

If you didn’t manage to fire up your copy of Red Dead 2 until a few days after launch – or perhaps only got around to playing this week – the final two phases of the multiplayer are about to go live.

Players who booted up Red Dead 2 between October 26 and October 29 will be able to join the beta at 1.30pm GMT today (November 29).

All remaining players will gain access to the Red Dead 2 multiplayer beta on Friday, November 30. This also has a 1.30pm start time in the UK.

You can get ready for the Red Dead Redemption 2 Online multiplayer beta by downloading the latest update.

The multiplayer beta update weighs in at a manageable 5.5GB on PS4 and Xbox One, so you should be ready in no time.

Accessing the Red Dead Redemption 2 beta is easy once you’ve downloaded the update.

“When booting up Red Dead Redemption 2 and arriving to the title menu, you will see an option in the top right of the screen to select Online,” Rockstar explains.

Not everything will be available at launch, but a wide selection of activities have been confirmed by Rockstar.

You can form a posse, set up a Camp, embark on story-based missions and battle rival gangs in PvP.

Competitive game modes include Shootout and Team Shootout, which sees players attempt to rack up the most kills in a set time.

Make it Count is Rockstar’s answer to Battle Royale, featuring a shrinking play area where players compete to be the last gunslinger standing.

Most Wanted is described as a “tactical race to the top” of a scoreboard. While eliminating other players boosts your score, it also places a higher bounty on your head.

There’s also a domination-style game mode where you get points for capturing and holding territory, as well as a Name Your Weapon mode in which players get more points for using trickier weapons.

Red Dead Online beta WARNING: Rockstar reveals PS4 and Xbox One multiplayer news https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-online-beta-warning-rockstar-reveals-ps4-and-xbox-one-multiplayer-news/ https://briefnews.eu/red-dead-online-beta-warning-rockstar-reveals-ps4-and-xbox-one-multiplayer-news/#respond Thu, 29 Nov 2018 02:31:21 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/red-dead-online-beta-warning-rockstar-reveals-ps4-and-xbox-one-multiplayer-news/

Rockstar Games has confirmed that they may need to push progress made during the current Red Dead Online beta on PS4 and Xbox One.

The warning was made today as more players were given access to the popular new multiplayer mode.

This will continue each day to qualifying players at around 1:30pm, GMT. By that time on Friday, November 30, everyone will have access.

You can imagine that server stability and gameplay crashes are being focused on by Rockstar right now.

Improvements to the overall experience is something that the development team has bee made a priority, telling fans:

“As with any Beta period, we plan to take the time necessary throughout to make Red Dead Online a complete, fun and fully-functional experience, which may take several weeks or months as we continually work to fix bugs, improve systems and implement player feedback into current or future plans.

“If you encounter technical issues of any sort, please visit our dedicated Rockstar Support site to find help or report these issues.

“And we strongly encourage everyone to send us feedback on your experience, from ways to improve gameplay to suggestions for future content – we want to know what you like, love or dislike and what you’d like to see added, changed or implemented into Red Dead Online.”

Rockstar never ran a significant public beta for GTA Online, which suffered server problems for a long time.

The Red Dead Online beta is expected to help improve the gameplay experience significantly but it also comes with another warning.

Rockstar may need to dial back stats before the full release in the coming months.

“We hope that all player progress during this early period of the Beta will be able to remain intact long term, 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.”

Changes such as these could come as a shock to some players, who will be looking to rank up as fast as possible.

However, until Rockstar Games actually says they have to make drastic changes, there’s a good chance they never will.

Other tweaks will also be made to Red Dead Redemption 2 multiplayer when it sees its full release.

This will include microtransactions, which look set to be more focused on cosmetics items in Red Dead Online.

“You may notice some areas of the in-game menus are not yet accessible or available during this early period of the Beta, such as the Red Dead Online in-game Store which will eventually open up to provide the option of purchasing gold bars to directly acquire cosmetic items like Camp décor, or a special style for your weapons.”

You can expect more on these changes to be shared by Rockstar in the future, following the completion of the Red Dead Online beta.

There is currently no date on when Rockstar will finish the first testing of Red Dead Online, or what they might have to when it is over.

It seems likely that there will be a new update released, possible version 1.04, which will add the changes asked for by fans via the feedback site.
