Where to Buy Red Dead Redemption 2

Instant Gaming links are affiliate links, at the same price for you; store, Eneba and Kinguin links earn us nothing. We lead with the lowest price either way. Compare all sellers below.

★ Our verdict

The Standard Edition on PC or Xbox is the one that makes sense. Kinguin has the lowest real key today, 11.09 € on PC, and Eneba the lowest on Xbox at 11.86 €. Instant Gaming, our affiliate, sits at 12.79 € on PC and 13.99 € on Xbox, one to two euros above. The Ultimate Edition adds outfits, a horse and Red Dead Online rank bonuses for 2 to 5 € more. On PlayStation there is no key on sale at the moment, only the 59.99 € store price or an account.

Official Trailer

The third trailer, the one that introduced Arthur Morgan. For the story, the gang and the order to play both games in, read the full Red Dead Redemption 2 guide.

01Step one

Which Edition Should You Buy?

Two editions are still sold. The Standard is the complete game, story and Red Dead Online. The Ultimate adds the Special Edition story bonuses (a bank robbery mission, a gang hideout, a horse, an outfit, three free weapons) plus Red Dead Online extras: two outfits, a horse, a camp theme and rank bonuses up to 25. None of it changes the story. The Special Edition on its own is no longer sold digitally.

Ultimate Edition

The Standard game plus the Special Edition story bonuses and Red Dead Online extras.

Story Mode bonuses Special Edition content

Bank Robbery Mission and Gang Hideout rob the bank in Rhodes, clear the Del Lobos hacienda
Dappled Black Thoroughbred with the Nuevo Paraiso Gunslinger outfit
Talisman and Medallion gameplay bonuses plus cash bonuses and discounts
Three free weapons Volcanic Pistol, Pump-Action Shotgun, Lancaster Varmint Rifle

A key

A code you redeem on your own Rockstar, Microsoft or PlayStation account. The game sits in your library for good, with your saves and Red Dead Online progress. Check the region: a Europe key needs a European account.

An account

The login details of a third-party account that owns the game. You play through it rather than owning it, the seller keeps the recovery email, and platform terms prohibit buying or transferring accounts. Cheap for a reason.
