Story Missions appear on your map as the same yellow circles as in single-player Red Dead Redemption 2. There are plenty of missions, events, and distractions that are unique to Red Dead Online as well. The main difference here is you’ll be doing this while inhabiting the same world as other players (some of whom really want to kill you just for fun). You can still hunt, get a haircut, hunt for treasure and play story missions. What can’t you do? Just about everything you can do in regular offline Red Dead Redemption 2 is available in Red Dead Online. And we’ll get into how you can do that below.
It’s best to treat Red Dead Online as the multiplayer game that it is. If you want the kind of solitary bliss that Red Dead Redemption 2 can offer, single-player is your mode. We just wanted our wolf pelt, but those jerks stole it and killed us. Others are already doing that, and a Posse of three or four will beat a lone wolf pretty much every time. In a game called Red Dead Online, you should play together. In this guide, we’ll help you get started, give some detail that Red Dead Online doesn’t and offer some advice about the best things to do to get ahead. It also requires learning some new things, even if you’ve invested dozens of hours into the campaign. Red Dead Online is here, and it’s as huge and ambitious as Red Dead Redemption 2.
