Red Dead Redemption 2and itsRed Dead Onlinemultiplayer component remain hugely popular to this day, even though they’ve been out for three years. Rockstar Games has continued tosupportRed Dead Onlinethrough regular new content updates, mainly adding new missions and cosmetic content, but fans are still holding out hope that more substantial updates could come eventually. Rockstar Games may or may not ramp up itsRed Dead Onlinesupport eventually, but if it does, there seems to be one feature idea in particular that fans want to see.
It seems thatRed Dead Redemption 2players want to see the ability to buy houses and real estate in general added to the game. Reddit user Jamie_G_14 got the conversation started in a recent post where they made the suggestion, resulting in numerous comments agreeing and offering up ideas about how it could work. Some users pointed out how Rockstar Games has implemented similar features in past titles, so it definitely seems like something that would be feasible for a futureRed Dead Onlineupdate, even if it’s unlikely that it will ever make its way to the game.

Grand Theft Auto Onlinelets players buy property, and the feature appeared in some earlierGrand Theft Autogames as well.Grand Theft Auto: Vice Citylet players purchase commercial property, leading to a variety of special side missions that players could complete in exchange for monetary rewards. But ifRed Dead Onlineadded the ability to purchase houses or other properties, it seems like it would be more similar to how it works inGTA Onlineas opposed toVice City.
As it stands, Rockstar Games has its hands full with other projects, so fans shouldn’t necessarily expect any huge updates to come toRed Dead Onlineanytime soon. Right now Rockstar is working on thenext-gen version ofGrand Theft Auto 5, which was originally expected to launch this year only to get pushed back to March 2022.
Numerous leaks from reliable sources have also revealed that Rockstar is busy with another project as well in the form of theGrand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy. According to reports, theGrand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogywill bring the PS2-eraGTAgames to modern platforms with some new bells and whistles, letting fans revisitGrand Theft Auto 3,Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, andGrand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Those same reports indicated thatRockstar’s lack of majorRed Dead Onlinesupportmay actually be due to its focus on things like theGrand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy, so maybe when work is done on that, Rockstar can refocus its efforts onRDO. MaybeRed Dead Onlinefans will eventually get a truly substantial content update, but they may not want to hold their breath. For now, they can continue looking forward to the smaller updates.
Red Dead Redemption 2is out now for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
