<p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/red-dead-redemption-2/">Red Dead Redemption 2</a>'s online component, <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/red-dead-2-online-now-live-for-all-players-on-ps4-/1100-6463566/">Red Dead Online, is now live</a> to all players after a staggered rollout. If you're playing the game on PS4, you're entitled to some exclusive items that are not yet available on Xbox One. Here's how to claim them.</p><p dir="ltr">Before being able to get any of the items, you'll first need to play through the opening tutorial section of Red Dead Online, which takes around 45 minutes or so. Once you've officially entered free roam, you're given access to things like the catalog, and it's at this point you can claim your freebies, as outlined on the <a href="https://blog.us.playstation.com/2018/11/30/the-red-dead-online-beta-is-now-live/">PlayStation Blog</a>.</p><p dir="ltr">The easiest of the bunch to grab is the <strong>Grizzlies Outlaw outfit</strong>. Simply open your satchel by holding left on the D-pad, go to the Outfits section, and you can add it to your collection. Once you own it, you can change into it (or any other clothing you own) by heading to your camp and accessing the wardrobe.</p><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/3469340-2688932793-34475.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3469340" data-ratio="0.56291390728477" data-width="755" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 755px"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/3469340-2688932793-34475.jpg"><img alt="No Caption Provided" src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/3469340-2688932793-34475.jpg" srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/3469340-2688932793-34475.jpg 755w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...-34475.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px" data-width="755"></a></figure><p dir="ltr">The other freebies require you to go to a particular location.

You start out in Red Dead Online with only a single slot for a horse, so if you want to grab the new horse immediately, you'll need to ditch your starter steed to claim this one.

While we've become accustomed to timed exclusives like these lasting for long stretches--some Destiny content has been PS4-only for 1-2 years--the exclusivity period here lasts only 30 days.
