Red Dead Online gets its Battle Royale mode with Gun Rush

Rockstar Games released a new update for Red Dead Online today. It adds Gun Rush, a new mode that has 32 players (alone or in teams) fighting to be the last standing. So, yup, it’s a battle royale.

Red Dead Online is the multiplayer component of Red Dead Redemption II. The open world game is a giant hit, earning $725 million worldwide in its first weekend in October. But as Rockstar saw with Grand Theft Auto V, a health online mode will keep players spending money and attract new customers. Grand Theft Auto Online has helped make GTAV one of the best-selling games of all time, moving over 100 million copies.
