Red Dead Online Gets Next Major Content Drop

Last week Red Dead Online, the online competent to Red Dead Redemption 2, came out of beta finally with a pretty large scale content drop. Much like Rockstar’s previous game, Grand Theft Auto V, the online aspect of the game will be a driving force to continued support. And like that game, Red Dead looks to be having a great pipeline of support similar to Grand Theft Auto Online. It’s already getting its next major content expansion.

The new content is pretty significant, as it will contain a new weapon, the Ancient Tomahawk, two new Showdown Modes in Make It Count and Last Stand, and new Free Roam missions featuring Sadie Adler and Black Belle. In addition to that, all players this week will receive 25% increase in payouts across all modes and events. Also, with all that you get various new clothes, horses, and bug fixes. You can see a partial list of the patch notes below, or check them out in full here.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is available now for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The update is live now, with some content out on on PS4 and coming to the Xbox One version later.

Early Access Content
