Red Dead Redemption 2 map companion app

The wait is finally over and the highly anticipated official launch of the new cowboy adventure Red Dead Redemption 2 has today taken place. Making the game available to play on both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 systems. As with most games on launch day there is a “Day-One Title Update” (3GB in size) which provides performance improvements and bug fixes, although it isn’t required for play at launch.

A new companion application has also been launched today by Red Dead Redemption 2 developer Rockstar which provides a real-time interactive map with pan and zoom functions, helping your exploration and discovery throughout the expansive open-world.

– Real-Time Map Tracking – Track your position, set waypoints, find the nearest General Store, hide from the law, hunt your enemies and more with a full screen, real-time view of the in-game map connected directly to your game experience.

As you progress you’ll unlock important points of interest to easily locate Gunsmiths, Hotels, Camp, Saloons, Post Offices, Fences, Doctors, Tailors, Stables, and much more.

– Journal – Arthur Morgan keeps a detailed journal of his experiences. When connected to the game you’ll be able to examine these entries and illustrations firsthand as new pages appear in the Journal.
