RDR3 Can Do Without Red Dead Online

RDR3 Can Do Without Red Dead Online

Without saying it, Rockstar has shown that it no longer cares about RDO. Although Red Dead Redemption 2 broke sales records, it still pales in comparison to GTA 5, one of the most profitable pieces of media of all time. Thanks to players purchasing in-game money with actual money, GTA Online has brought in billions of dollars in revenue. To encourage continued spending, Rockstar keeps players engaged with a steady flow of content updates. Simply put, GTA Online is too successful for Red Dead Online to also thrive. There’s no use in getting players hopes up when it will inevitably disappoint again.

Since the success of Red Dead Redemption‘s Undead Nightmare DLC, there’s been great demand for more post-launch content for Rockstar’s single-player offerings. Single-player add-ons for GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 never materialized, but things could change with the absence of Red Dead Online. Some were hoping for a surprise release of a Red Dead Redemption remaster, while others speculated that an alien-focused story was on the horizon considering the UFO Easter egg in Red Dead Redemption 2. Currently, all signs point to Rockstar having no real interest in making an engaging live service within the world of Red Dead Redemption, so resources should instead be allocated to making the next great expansion on par with Undead Nightmare and even The Ballad of Gay Tony from GTA 4.

Rockstar will likely give Red Dead Online another try in Red Dead Redemption 3. With the avalanche of recent bad press, it’s reasonable to assume the developer will be committed to make things right. Due to the lack of communication, however, it’s also reasonable to assume that the developer is less invested in RDR2‘s multiplayer than it is GTA 5‘s, making the prospect of an online mode in another Red Dead far from a sure thing.
