Red Dead Redemption 2 just got a massive update that should keep us busy for the immediate future while we wait for news on GTA VI.
Originally released in 2018, Red Dead Redemption 2 is considered to be one of the greatest video games of all time with an incredible Metacritic score of 97, more than earning its “Must-Play” accolade, placing it firmly amongst some of Rockstar Games’ best properties.

That being said, as great as Red Dead Redemption 2 is, its multiplayer offering Red Dead Online may have fallen below many fans' expectations, especially when compared to GTA Online which has benefitted from a wealth of free expansion-sized content updates.
However, that’s not to say that Red Dead Online isn't fun, because it most certainly is, even more so when you get a group of outlaw buddies together to cause all kinds of havoc in its huge Wild West world.
