Red Dead Online Gets First Update of 2024
01/09/2024 11:26 pm EST
Red Dead Online has gotten its first new update of 2024. Red Dead Redemption 2 is arguably one of the best games of the last decade, if not ever made. Rockstar Games created a deeply immersive world with no shortage of content in its single player and then released an online mode that served as a sort of spiritual successor to GTA Online. Unfortunately, the mode never really took off in the same way as its GTA counterpart. It had a lot of promise, serving more as a roleplaying experience than GTA, but due to the pandemic, the development of GTA 6, and more, it struggled to gain its footing.
Red Dead Online, unfortunately, lost support in terms of big content updates. Rockstar Games confirmed it would be winding down new content updates for the western online game in favor of moving resources and efforts to Grand Theft Auto VI, but would continue giving the game smaller updates. Now, 2024 has arrived and Rockstar has revealed the first monthly update of the new year for Red Dead Online. You can get a bunch of bonus money, gold, XP, and other rewards throughout the month.
