Set aside some time before booting up Red Dead Redemption 2 this week, as in addition to installing the title’s multiple Blu-ray discs, you’ll also need to download a day one patch. “As is common for a game of this size and scope, there will be a downloadable title update addressing a number of last minute tweaks, bugs, and fixes,” a Rockstar spokesperson said. “To ensure the best possible gameplay experience, we strongly recommend making sure you’ve downloaded this update before launching the game.”
If you’re downloading the Western from the PlayStation Store, then you should already be able to pre-load the release right now, meaning there’ll be no additional hanging around. There’s no word just yet on how large the patch is, but we’ll obviously update you as soon as we know more.

Only a few more days now.
Very excited here.
@LN78 There will almost certainly be more to download.
@LN78 Gran Turismo Sport is over 100GB now I think. It's just the way these games are going.
It better not result in headless non playable characters. Had to delete and reinstall Undead Nightmare without the patch when I found out about that...
Funny how when I got my PS4 Pro I was like "A terabyte?! I'll never need that much!" Oh, the naivety. A terabyte on PS3 probably would be more than you'd ever need, but not on PS4.
I'd imagine that if you've pre-ordered the digital version (like myself) then any last minute patches will be installed before/by Friday, so once the game unlocks you should be good to go
This is gonna play havoc on my PS4's fan. I'm tempted to open it up and give the filthy bugger a good scrubbing but I'm petrified of damaging it.
Maybe it's to update Rockstar's mandatory overtime policy
Just three more sleeps. I can't wait!
@Neolit Cheers for the advice. My fan is loud but I don't really hear it much because I use headphones. It's just for peace of mind so that I don't worry that it'll blow up halfway through Red Dead.
nice .red dead redemption 2 is almost here dog.word up son
@ApostateMage Once cleaned, I also put four of these under my PS4 (I keep it horizontally) so it has more space to dissipate the heat. I painted them with electric blue spray and they look very professional!
EDIT: You could also keep them in their natural look so to match the RDR 2 style...
@andreoni79 That's a corker of an idea. I'll get me some of those. Grazie.
4gb...
Another unfinished game, another reason not to buy it.
So with the preload the patch is already there?
@AFCC yep
Day one patch? Time to boycott.
@bbtothe Thanks! Will be playing second one then
@AFCC all good! we're in the final hours now
