Red Dead Redemption 2 Coming to PC and Google Stadia Next Month

Finally after numerous rumours and speculation, over the weekend Rockstar Games has officially announced that Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming to PC, which should come as little surprise, especially after Rockstar have recently released their very own PC game launcher.

Red Dead Redemption 2 will release for PC on November 5th and by pre-purchasing via the Rockstar Games Launcher from October 10th until October 23rd, you can pick two free Rockstar Games titles from the likes of GTA III, GTA: Vice City, GTA San Andreas, Bully: Scholarship Edition, L.A Noire: The Complete Edition or Max Payne 3: The Complete Edition.

However, just by downloading the Rockstar Games Launcher, you get GTA: San Andreas for free until tomorrow, so regardless of whether you plan of pre-purchasing RDR2, you might want to take advantage of the offer before it ends and download the launcher asap.  Additionally by pre-purchasing via the Rockstar Games Launcher, you will have gain access to free bonus content, which includes an Outlaw Survival Kit, War Horse, a Treasure Map and Cash Bonus for the Story Mode, as well as 50 Gold Bars for Red Dead Online.

Other then the visual improvements over the PS4 and Xbox One version (which is still a strikingly stunning game in its own right), the PC version will come with new Bounty Hunting Missions, Gang Hideouts, Weapons and more.  Hopefully whatever this new content may be, they will also come to the console versions at some point too.

If you prefer not to pre-purchase via the Rockstar Games Launcher and bag yourself some free games, you can purchase RDR2 from the Epic Games Store, Greenman Gaming and the Humble Store from October 23rd, as well as other retailers such as Game and GameStop, all of which will include a pre-order bonus of 25 Gold Bars for Red Dead OnlineRDR2 will also be available via Steam from December, which seems odd that it’s so late on that platform.  Finally, RDR2 will also be a launch title for Google Stadia next month.
