Red Dead Redemption 2 Is the Next AAA Game to Get a PlayStation 4 Pro Bundle

On Monday, PlayStation announced a Red Dead Redemption 2 PlayStation Pro bundle that will launch alongside the game on Oct. 26.

The bundle is priced at $399.99 in the U.S. and at $499.99 in Canada. It will include a 1TB Jet Black PS4 Pro system, a DualShock 4 wireless controller and, of course, Red Dead Redemption 2 on a physical Blu-ray disc. Depending on where you buy a PlayStation 4 Pro, and considering Red Dead Redemption 2’s launch price, you can save anywhere from $60 to $150. You can preorder the bundle today.

In regard to the benefits of a PlayStation 4 Pro, PlayStation has included specific details about its specs in its announcement:

On PS4 Pro, 4K HDR TV owners will benefit from enhanced graphics and optimized performance for a stunningly sharp and detailed look (when compared to a PS4 system), as you live, ride and fight to survive as an outlaw in a notorious gang. HD TV owners will benefit from increased image clarity through the PS4 Pro’s Supersampling Mode (you can turn on Supersampling Mode in the PS4 Pro system settings menu). Meanwhile, if your TV supports high-dynamic range (HDR), you’ll experience the picturesque scenery of Red Dead Redemption 2 with an even more vibrant and dynamic range of colors (HDR features also available on PS4 system).

Red Dead Redemption 2 will launch on Oct. 26. Revisit the first gameplay trailer here.
