Red Dead Redemption 2

From now on, players will be able to purchase Gold Bars with real-world money in Red Dead Online. This change comes with the latest December update in which Rockstar also adds 15 additional gold bars and a cash gift to all players.

To say that Red Dead Redemption 2 development was kept under tight wraps is a severe understatement, but it's even worse for voice actors like Gabriel Sloyer who played Javier Escuella and couldn't tell a living soul about his work.

Sony's heavy hitter God of War took the ultimate award but Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 snagged a couple of shiny trophies as well. Of course, Epic's battle royale wonder Fortnite was among the winners along with indie title Celeste.

Rockstar have released the first update for Red Dead Online open beta and the list of changes includes increased gold and money rewards and reduced weapon prices. Another batch of fixes for some persistent issues will follow next week.

One Redditor is considering employing third-world labour to grind gold for him in Red Dead Online. LeRedditArtist asked whether this would be a viable option since he'd rather help some poor kids than hand over his cash to Rockstar.

Players have discovered a glitch in Red Dead Online which allows them to make an infinite amount of money. This can be achieved in two ways and both methods are yet to be addressed by Rockstar as Red Dead Online goes live for all players.

Rockstar have rolled out the 1.03 update for Red Dead Redemption 2 and although the patch notes are pretty light on actual in-game additions, it has added support for Red Dead Online beta, which is available to all players as of today.

Rockstar confirmed that Red Dead Online store is yet to go live as they want to make sure everything works as intended before the launch. The store will allow players to buy gold bars which can be spent on camp and weapon cosmetics.

Many expected Red Dead Online to be a copy of GTA Online in a Wild West setting, but Rockstar added a few quirks that made it fairly distinguished. For example, the camp behaves like properties in GTA Online but it can also be upgraded.

According to the latest leaks, Red Dead Redemption 2 battle royale will have up to 32 players and will be called Make It Count. The mode is not implemented yet, as the Red Dead Online implementation progresses fairly slow for Rockstar.
