Microsoft announces that the Rockstar Games video game will be available on its subscription service starting in May.
The Wild West is closer than ever to Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft has revealed that Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar Games' award-winning title, will become part of its service catalog starting May 7. It will be exclusively on console, so it will not be available in the PC games library. This production, which went on sale in 2018, narrates the last years of this time full of changes.
At the gates of the 20th century, bandits no longer have carte blanche to commit crimes. The law rises up and persecutes the criminals, who struggle to survive day by day. In 1889 North America, the band of Arthur Morgan and Van der Linde focuses on escaping from federal agents and bounty hunters. The authorities will not hesitate to send anyone who dares to break the law to the gallows, so they must escape throughout the country. In the meantime, they will meet many characters to interact with.

Red Dead Redemption 2 hasn't received any expansion for its story mode, but the creators of GTA V also update Red Dead Online, the online aspect of the video game, weekly. On the other hand, Rockstar Games added the photo mode in all versions. All this content will be accessible from Xbox Game Pass.
GTA V leaves the service
On the day of Red Dead Redemption 2's arrival on Xbox Game Pass, GTA V will say goodbye. This has been confirmed by Microsoft itself in the official statement they have issued on its website. All subscribers have the possibility to get it with a 20% discount, as in the case of all titles that bid farewell to the service.
Red Dead Redemption 2 was originally released for Xbox One and PS4, but in 2019 it released on PC and Google Stadia.
