red dead redemption 2 ps4 early access

Last week, we reported that Red Dead Redemption 2 will get exclusive timed early access content for PlayStation 4 gamers. Today, Sony unveiled the Red Dead Redemption 2 PS4 early access content, and they’re not as bad as some might expect!

Both Red Dead Redemption 2 and the multiplayer component, Red Dead Online, will be getting PS4 early access content in the form of weapons, horses and outfits. Here are the items PS4 gamers will get earlier than everyone else.

Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit – available day one in Red Dead Redemption 2 Story Mode and at the launch of Red Dead Online

A slick but rugged look, the Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit is perfect for exploring the forests of Ambarino.

Featuring a wool-lined, long coat with custom, hand-tooled leather accents, a leather vest with ornate pattern details, stand wing-tip collar with black neckerchief, and custom ornate buckle with matching boot tips, the Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit pays homage to the “boss” of the Northern States, its real-world inspiration.

Red Chestnut Arabian Horse – available at the launch of Red Dead Online

Known for its speed and handling, the Red Chestnut Arabian Horse is in a class above most horses you would find in the wild, with performance a step up from the first tier of available horses.

Alligator Skin Ranch Cutter Saddle – available at the launch of Red Dead Online

In addition to its stylish look, the Alligator Skin Ranch Cutter Saddle provides a number of benefits when equipped including core Health and Stamina boosts, which increase speed and acceleration for the horse. This saddle is an enhanced version of the basic saddle that comes stock for players when starting Red Dead Online.

High Roller Double-Action Revolver – available at the launch of Red Dead Online

Looks could kill: The High Roller Double-Action Revolver features a polished steel body with unique period-inspired, beautifully detailed engraving work. The deadly, quick draw revolver comes complete with unique playing card and skull elements carved into the grip. Its superior, quick rate of fire over all other revolvers makes it a great choice for mounted combat.

Not bad, right? Of course, we don’t know if any potential DLC is part of this marketing deal, but for now, we’ll take this.

Don’t forget to check out the latest gameplay trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2 where we see the newly revamped deadeye gameplay mechanic in action.

Red Dead Redemption 2 shoots out this October 26 on the PS4, Xbox One.
