    Pre-Load Red Dead 2


    I pre-ordered Red Dead Redemption 2. Pre-loading started October 19, 2018. On October 23, I attempted to pre-load the game. I don't have this option: instead, it only gives me the option to "play". When I attempt this, I get a message saying something
    along the lines of "you're too early, come back on release date". The game itself does not appear to have downloaded on my console at all, yet I don't have the option to pre-load. The last thing I want is to fire up the game Friday, then wait three days
    for the giant game to download (when I could have already pre-loaded).

    Any advice?

    :)

    Pre-Load Red Dead 2

    Hey Clay,

    If it is showing that it is available to play and not giving you the option to download then it is likely already installed on the console. I had the same issue with Forza Horizon 4 and suddenly when it released it appeared in my games and apps.

    If you check the install size of the tile on your console it should be around 88gb if it is you possibly have auto updates enabled so it has already done it for you

    Hello,

    If you go to My Games and App, Find Red Dead 2 and then press the Menu Button, Manage Game and then if it is a 100MB file delete it, Go back and then go to your Ready to Install list and locate Red Dead 2 and then you should be able to download the full
    games if it is available.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 DLC Problem

    I checked this for my and my brothers account and that is the result. Looks a little bit strange or? On My Account the Ultimate Edition is listed twice. I think this is not correct and on my brothers account ultimate edition is missing. Pre-Order Bonus is
    correct, because i have it bought and my brother not.

    My Account:

    Red Dead Redemption 2 Ultimate Edition

    This Package Contains:

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre-Order Boni (War Horse)

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre-Order Boni (Treasure Map)

    Red Dead Redemption 2 DLC Problem

    Each profile can set ONE console at a time as their home console and any other profile on that console can then play that profiles digital games and use its subscriptions without the profile with the
    ownership of the games and subscriptions being signed in at the same time.
    Good to know, but if i got my own console and this new console to my home console then this did not work anymore on the old console right?

    So i set the console to my home console on my account to an now it works - he has all the Content of the game, but i think this is not the solution for the initial Problem, because he bought and installed a seperate copy of the full
    game (Ultimate Edition) and so it should work without my account set to home console so that i share my game data with him.

    And that is the real Problem which should be solved. So i checked what is installed on the console under his profile and compared it to my profile:

    His installed game files:

    - Red Dead Redemption 2

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Special Edition Content

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Ultimate Edition Content

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre Order Bonus War Horse

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre Order Bonus War Treausre Map

    My installed game files:

    - Red Dead Redemption 2

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Special Edition Content

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Ultimate Edition Content

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre Order Bonus War Horse

    - Red Dead Redemption 2 Pre Order Bonus War Treausre Map

    So we both have installed exactly the same game files, but if is only logged in, Nothing of the Special and ultimate edtion either the pre order Bonus stuff is loaded and accessible in the game. And that ist no correct. So what's the
    Problem?
