There have been rumours flying around that physical editions of Red Dead Redemption 2 will come with two Blu-Ray discs on PS4. Because it's being reported everywhere, and because of the huge install size of the game, it'll probably turn out to be true, but Rockstar has yet to say anything on the matter. However, some fresh evidence has been shared on Reddit that all but confirms it.
These are pictures of the steelbook case that comes with the Ultimate Edition of the game, and it's pretty clear to see the space on the righthand side for two discs. As with most of these things, though, the source isn't a particularly strong one, but these images do look legit to us. Two discs isn't a big deal, really, but it'd be nice to have this confirmed officially.
What do you think? Do these images pretty much confirm Red Dead Redemption 2 will come with two discs in the box? Lead your horse into the comments below.

I went digital so don't care either way.
I'm still debating, but leaning towards physical, so it'll be nice to not have to worry about downloading anything besides maybe a patch to start playing.
Room for a 'making of' bluray ?
I want that steelbook...but $100...
What I don't understand, is why Rockstar doesn't announce it and proclaim being a champion of physical gaming by doing this. Surely it could be nothing but more excellent press for them. That's my main concern in the issue. I'm not getting RDR2, but I think this needs to happen to prevent dangerous precedents for the industry.
Maybe the second disc space is for the soundtrack?
Guess we'll find out next week.
second disc might in fact be the content for red dead online in particular. i.e., not a mandatory install.
seriously why don't they just post on twitter or something
"it's on 2 discs" or "it's NOT on 2 discs", it takes what 20 seconds to write and post it
I’m not sure, but I think it might be required to install the game using BOTH discs. But only use the first disc for playing it?
I went digital for this one. Our post has been lousy lately, and I wanna be playing this next Friday morning!!
RDR1 Remastered confirmed
Slow internet hope it is two discs!
If it's 100GB, if memory serves me correctly dual layer Blu rays can only hold 50GB. So unless they offload 50GB to a download, it will indeed be 2 Blu rays.
Sparks...awesome!!
What a cool steel book case. I however went digital.
Seems pretty obvious to me that it'll be two discs. It won't fit on one, and they simply can't sell half a game and expect that everyone will be able to download the rest of it.
You'll probably put both discs in to install as usual, then have to stick disc 1 as the key in order to play.
@Paranoimia BO4 had no problem with that. 😉
@Jake3103 haha that thought did cross my mind
@Flaming_Kaiser 😂
