Red Dead Online Update Time

As of July 2022 Rockstar officially stopped development on major updates for Red Dead Online. This moved the weekly update schedule to a monthly one. Updates to Red Dead Online typically occur on the first Tuesday of each new month.

The monthly updates no longer add in anything new to the game. Instead Rockstar makes changes to what items are on sale, active bonus Gold and XP opportunities, and various other modifications such as re-releasing event old passes.
