Do you get access to Red Dead Online when you buy standard edition?

Or is it only for ultimate?

Red Dead Redemption 2 also includes free access to the shared living world of Red Dead Online, where players take on an array of roles to carve their own unique path on the frontier as they track wanted criminals as a Bounty Hunter, create a business as a Trader, unearth exotic treasures as a Collector or run an underground distillery as a Moonshiner and much more.

It would help if people READ the store page.

it's only the online that you can buy as a standalone.

getting the actual game gives you everything except for dlc which you can get separate or with the ultimate edition.

this is how it usually is with games like this btw, only a few were known to charge extra for the online mode and that never works out.

If you want the "full" game, buy the Ultimate Edition.
Since with RDR2 you can not change your edition or upgrade it at a later time.
So if you do buy Standard Edition, you will be stuck with that.
No point buying that, refunding it and then turn around and buy Ultimate Edition.

RDR2 always included the Online Mode (RDO)

Are you trying to launch the game in general and coming up with an error, stating your social club account doesn't own Red Dead Online?

If so, changing from Vulkan to DX 12 fixed it for me using this from Rockstar support

OP didn't mention a game issue. OP doesn't even own the game yet. Simply asking if RDO comes with RDR2 or not. As many don't understand the differences between Standard vs Ultimate.
