'Red Dead Online' players are embracing a "peaceful life" in the game.
Red Dead Redemption 2
The Rockstar title - which was released a year and a half ago as an online companion to 'Red Dead Redemption 2' - offers more than just a Wild West shoot-out for fans.
Rockstar North's director of design production Tarek Hamand told GamesRadar: "With Red Dead Online, we're trying to deliver every aspect of what it might be like to live in frontier America in the late 1800s, so it offers a huge variety of options for players to create the experience they want within that world.
"At the same time, we do see a large portion of the community enjoy some of the more solitary and calm pursuits on offer.
"We've made sure to provide just as much freedom for players who want to live a peaceful life as a hunter, or tending to their camp, or a burgeoning business owner – or even become a deadly bounty hunter that can protect the peaceful players of the world from the scoundrels.
"How all these different players interact really paints a picture of what it would be like to live and breathe in that era."
'Red Dead Online' is being released as a standalone title on December 1, and will be available for both PC and console gamers.
