GTA Online har vist sig at være en kæmpe succes for Rockstar, så det er kun naturligt, at Red Dead Redemption 2 vil have sin egen massive multiplayer komponent. Derfor har Take-Two været ude og understrege, at online-delen i de to spil ikke vil konkurrere direkte med hinanden. Rockstar vil i stedet fortsætte med at støtte begge spil i lang tid fremover. Take-Twos CEO, Strauss Zelnick, udtalte:
"Entertainment is something that you want to have, but it's not a need to have. If nothing in the market appeals to you at some time, there's no reason to go and get it. And if multiple things appeal to you, avid consumers will consume all of those things".
"So, I don't think there's any competitive dynamic with any of our upcoming releases apart from the fact that our success is driven by quality. So, I think, the success of Red Dead, which is highly anticipated, will be driven by its quality. And I think the ongoing success of Grand Theft Auto Online is driven by its extraordinary quality".
Uanset hvad, så mente Take-Two at der er grund til at glæde sig til online-komponenten af Red Dead Redemption 2, og vi snart kan forvente nye oplysninger fra Rockstar. Read Dead Redemption 2 er sat til at udkomme til efteråret på Playstation 4 og Xbox One.
