Trying to download rdr2

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues installing your game Rdr2.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Please check the disc for any smudges, scratches, or dirt. Gently clean it with a soft, lint-free cloth, wiping from the center outward.

And make sure that your Xbox has enough free storage space for the full installation. RDR2 requires a significant amount of space, so double-check your available storage in Settings > System > Storage.

Next is to powercycle the Xbox by turning off your Xbox completely by holding the power button for 10 seconds. Unplug it for a few minutes, then plug it back in and restart.

Then disconnect your Xbox from the internet entirely and try installing the game offline because the console attempts to download updates during installation, which can cause issues if there's no internet connection.

Thank you for your cooperation.

This worked and now my RDR2 has downloaded fully thank you

i think it's something inside home router or wifi.

i downloaded RDR2 just fine with normal speed.

Hi Mateus,

Thank you so much for your quick reply. I tried all the steps on your list twice over without any luck. Actually worked on this issue until 3am ( Thailand time ).

In the end, the whole problem was, that I downloaded the “free” RDR2 online through Game Pass Ultimate. Nobody ( including forums ), had mentioned that in order to play RDR2 story mode, you would need the RDR2 “online” DLC.. Unknowing to me, Game Pass erased this free DLC this month. I did buy the story mode only, but without the DLC.....this game was not downloadable anymore.

I took the chance of purchasing the RDR2 “online” DLC to see if this would resolve the missing Game.

Bingo 😎

Thank you again Mateus

Regards Olli

You mentioned you purchased RDR2...did you purchase both RDR2 Online and RDR2 Story? Story is a DLC component to RDR2 Online. And Online will need an internet connection. Apologies if this seems like a silly question to ask but not everyone realises that RDR2 has 2 separate components...nor do they realise that you have to buy RDR2 Online to play the Story (single player) mode
