The long-anticipated PC release of Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming very soon. Today Rockstar announced that its Wild West epic will be launching on PC on November 5th. As expected, the new platform will mean graphical and technical improvements, and Rockstar also says there will be “new bounty hunting missions, gang hideouts, weapons, and more.” The PC release will also include the multiplayer add-on Red Dead Online.

Actually purchasing a copy will be a little convoluted, however. Starting October 9th, the game will be available through the newly-launched Rockstar Games Launcher, and those who pre-order before October 22nd will receive some bonuses in the form of two, free classic Rockstar games, including the likes of GTA III, Vice City, and Max Payne 3.
At launch the game will also be available via the Epic Games store, Greenman Gaming, the Humble Store, GameStop, and “additional digital retailers” with pre-orders starting on October 23rd. Steam, meanwhile, will be coming on later: RDR2 will launch through Valve’s store in December. The game will also be a launch title on the Google Stadia streaming platform in November.
