On May 14, 2019, with the release of a massive update, Red Dead Online came out of beta.

Players can create and customize characters and tailor abilities to suit play styles. Once ready, they can explore the world solo or with friends. Posses can be created with up to seven players. Players have options similar to Red Dead Redemption 2, in that they can gather around the fire at camp, head out hunting or fishing, visit towns, battle enemy gangs and attack their hideouts, hunt for treasure, take on missions and interact with familiar characters from across the five states, fight against other outlaws in both spontaneous skirmishes and pitched set-piece battles, and compete with other players or whole Posses in open world challenges.

Camps
Camps are accommodations which players own. The camps can be customized with different themes, a flag, and equipment.[10] Players can choose from a selection of tents for their individual. Camps come in two sizes, small or large. Small camps can hold a posse of up to four while large camps can hold a posse of up to seven. When a posse is used, each player in the posse will share the leader's camp and their personal tents will appear in that camp. To customize their camp and tent, players can talk to Cripps.
There is also a lockbox that is always in the camp, allowing players to collect deliveries that they've purchased through the catalog.

Equipment
- Fast Travel Post (Rank 65). Allows players to fast travel from their Camp to other places on the map.
Mounts
In multiplayer the player can choose between a multitude of mounts, all categorized into seven different categories. Players can own only ten horse stalls, and therefore only ten horses. When buying a horse, players are allowed to choose from one or more styles of the breed of their choice as well as the gender of their horse. Like single player, horses in Red Dead Online have statistics which vary between breeds and the different horses within each breed. Once purchased the player can name their horse, customize their appearance, add tack to it, and purchase Horse Insurance for $125.
Currently, owned horses cannot be sold for cash (but can be discarded) and wild horses cannot be brought into the stables.
These categories and their inclusive horse breeds are:
- Riding
- Draft
- Race
- War
- Work
- Multi
- Superior
Certain mounts can also be unlocked after buying certain editions of the game, such as:
- Black Chestnut Thoroughbred (Ultimate Edition exclusive)
Ranks
For more details on Ranks in Red Dead Online, see Red Dead Online Ranks.
As players do activities in Red Dead Online they gain XP. This XP allows the player to reach certain XP milestones known as Ranks. With every new Rank reached, the player will unlock new items such as clothing, weapons, horses, camp modifications, and ability cards. The maximum Rank is 100.
