FiveM team hard at work on the first multiplayer mod for Red Dead Redemption 2 PC

The modders from the FiveM team are planning to launch a multiplayer modification for the PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 this December. And no, you didn't misread that — it's a modification.

Rockstar typically releases its games without multiplayer support, only adding it several months later.

FiveM's servers have been around since the GTA V era. It's no surprise that the mod developers would tackle the PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 as soon as it launched.

The framework for the multiplayer modification is set to launch later this year, promising a host of game modes and advanced features. The team aims to release their multiplayer mod by year-end, definitely before the holiday season.

As a reminder: Last week, Rockstar finally announced the PC version of the console hit Red Dead Redemption 2. The game is slated for release on November 5th via the Rockstar Launcher and Epic Games Store.

The game should then arrive on Steam a month later, in December 2019.
