Got a question about going from the physical copy of the game to Red Dead Online PS4

Help/Question

Does anyone know if there would be an issue switching from playing Red Dead from the disk to playing the new stand alone Red Dead? I have both and would rather just play the stand alone and put the disk back in the case. Just want to make sure you don't have to start over or anything. Any help is appreciated.

Did it myself. You’ll be fine. Only issue I have is for some reason on my home screen it says play trial instead of start.

did you have to delete the physical copy of the game first?

I accidentally did. So I’m not sure if you have to or not.

k, I think I do because it says can't download red dead online and it says I need to insert the disk.

Oh ok. Sounds like you do then. Just the app though. Don’t delete the saves. You probably know that though.
