It’s been nearly a week since Red Dead Online launched for all players and there has been a lot of controversy regarding the microtransactions and earning money. Thankfully, Rockstar Games has released the Red Dead Online December 6 update patch notes today. These patch notes detail the first set of changes to the online mode. As such, you are going to want to know what has changed.
The Red Dead Online December 6 update patch notes are live across both Xbox One and PS4. The majority of these changes are specifically for the controversial in-game economy. Unfortunately, the patch notes aren’t addressing anything regarding the performance and disconnects of the game. However, we do expect Rockstar Games to address those issues soon.
