Red Dead Online, een online actie-avontuur uit 2019, plaatst je in het uitgestrekte Wilde Westen waar je een eigen leven opbouwt. De gameplay draait om het kiezen van gespecialiseerde rollen zoals premiejager, handelaar of drankstoker, wat een mix van schietactie en simulatie biedt. De focus ligt op langdurige progressie en interactie met andere spelers in een gedeelde, evoluerende wereld. Recente updates richten zich op het uitbreiden van deze rollen en het toevoegen van seizoensgebonden content.
This game features graphic violence towards human-like characters. Powerful weapons, including explosives, can be used to kill or incapacitate. The use of explosives at close range can lead to decapitation and dismemberment, both of human characters and horses. Reactions to violence are realistic, with characters screaming in pain and wounds appearing on their bodies. There are some 'execution-style' moves, which feature strong blood and gore. The game also features violence towards defenceless characters, including the ability to lasso and tie up innocent people, on whom violence can then be inflicted. This includes dragging them behind horses, leaving them on train tracks and throwing them into water to drown. The player can also attack and kill multiple civilian characters using any of the weapons at their disposal. There is frequent use of strong language ('fuck') as well as discriminatory terms, such as the 'n' word. The player is able to bet on and partake in various games of chance, such as poker and blackjack. All of these games feature in depth instructions informing the player of the rules and how to bet.
