The Red Dead Redemption 2 PC release date was just revealed by Rockstar via its official Twitter account. The announcement of the Red Dead Redemption 2 PC version puts an end to months of rumors and speculation, coming with graphical improvements and new content, including missions and weapons.
It’s not an entirely surprising reveal, but it comes as great news after the disappointment of never seeing a PC release for the two previous Red Dead games. Red Dead Redemption 2 is also going to be available this November on Google Stadia as a launch title.

The PC version will bring improved visuals and various technical enhancements, as well as new Bounty Hunting missions, Gang Hideouts, weapons, and more.
