We are now on the eve of one of the most anticipated game releases in recent memory. Yes, we are all stoked for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Fallout 76, but it’s been 8 long years in the making for Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2. If you haven’t yet pre-ordered the game, there are loads of great deals out there today on console bundles from just about all major retailers, as well some great offers on just the game itself. Head below for everything you need to know to get the best value on your late Red Dead Redemption 2 pre-order.
Considering both Best buy and Amazon are not offering early member pre-order credits for this, it might be smart to check out some other options. One example would be this Red Dead Redemption 2 pre-order with 3 months of Xbox Live Gold attached. Using today’s eBay sitewide code, PICKUPTEN, you can knock an extra 10% off right now for a total of $53.99. Including the $25 worth of Xbox Live, you’re saving over $30 here. This is the best current deal around on just the game without being bundled with a console.
One thing to keep in mind is that you will be forgoing some of the bonuses that come along with Amazon, Best Buy and GameStop pre-orders, but the extra savings might be worth it for some.
Get your Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre-order Early
Meanwhile, if you absolutely must have the game as soon as it’s out, Best Buy is still listing its pre-order as delivering on day one. However, those who buy the game early at GameStop can pick it up tonight in-store at 9pm! If you’re going to go the full price route, this is the fastest way to get the game in your machine.
Red Dead Redemption 2 Console Bundles
If you’re in the market for an Xbox One X, there are some fantastic bundle deals running right now that include Red Dead Redemption for free. We already had the Robot White bundle at $100 off from GameStop yesterday but there are few notable offers running today. While Amazon is offering $100 off Xbox One X bundles when adding RDR2 to your cart, there are few options below at a better value:
- Xbox One X White Fallout 76 Bundle $460 ($100 off) | GameStop
- Xbox One X NBA 2K19 Bundle $414 ($146 off) | eBay
- Xbox One X PUBG Bundle $414 ($146 off) | eBay
- Xbox One X NBA 2K19 Bundle $459 (about $126 off) | Walmart
- + PowerA controller, $5 Xbox Gift Card
- Xbox One X 1TB $441 (about $102 off) | Walmart
- + PowerA controller, $5 Xbox Gift Card
- All Xbox One X bundles $100 off in the cart | Amazon
And just to round out your experience, the Red Dead Redemption 2 official hardcover game guide is still at Amazon for a best-ever price there of $24 (Reg. $30+).
Here’s the second half of the gameplay footage trailer Rockstar promised. Unfortunately PlayStation gamers have left out in the dust today, but did Sony announce a PS4 Pro bundle with Red Dead Redemption 2 thrown in for free last month. It is available for pre-order at Best Buy, GameStop and Amazon.
