Via de Rockstar Newswire heeft de ontwikkelaar zojuist bekendgemaakt wat de speciale edities voor Red Dead Redemption 2 zullen zijn. De game ontvangt een Special Edition, Ultimate Edition en Collector’s Box. Mocht je een pre-order plaatsen, dan ontvang je twee DLC-pakketten voor de Story modus van de game, geheel gratis bovenop de content van de editie die je koopt.

Verder deelt Rockstar aan mensen die een pre-order plaatsen ook nog eens geld uit, geen echt geld, maar geld dat je kunt besteden in GTA Online. Check hieronder je favoriete editie en wat er allemaal bij zit, let wel dat de Collector’s Box straks enkel bij geselecteerde retailers verkrijgbaar zal zijn. Voor de Benelux zijn dit in ieder geval Bol.com, Gamemania en Nedgame, zo laat Rockstar ons weten.
