We are just one week away from the release of Rockstar’s highly-anticipated sequel to Red Dead Redemption. We aren’t expecting to see very many deals (if any) on this one anytime soon anyway, so today’s pre-order offer might be something to take a look at if you’re planning on jumping in this holiday. Trusted game dealer AntOnline via eBay Daily Deals is offering pre-orders on RDR2 with 3 months of Xbox Live Gold attached for $59.99 shipped (releases October 26th). You’ll be forgoing some of the retailer specific pre-order bonuses available at Amazon, Best Buy and GameStop, but the Live Gold adds $25 of value here while extending your current subscription an additional 3 months. You’ll find more details below and the rest of today’s game deals right here.
Considering Best Buy and Amazon aren’t offering Red Dead Redemption 2 pre-order credits on this one, today’s offer is the best deal we can find on one of the biggest releases of the year. However, if you absolutely must have this game on day one, then you might want to consider Best Buy’s full price pre-order over today’s deal or Amazon, as it is the only one specifically saying it will arrive on October 26th. GameStop will allow for in-store pickup reservations as well if you’re going to go the full price route.
We got the second half of the promised gameplay footage trailer just ahead of the game topping our list of the best console releases of the month. While PlayStation gamers won’t be able to jump on today’s deal, Sony announced a new PS4 Pro bundle with Red Dead Redemption 2 thrown in for free last month. It is available for pre-order at Best Buy and GameStop (currently out of stock at Amazon).
Red Dead Redemption 2:
America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed.
After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him.
