RED DEAD ONLINE Update (June 11)

Rockstar Games is happy to announce that a new Showdown Mode arrives in Red Dead Online today alongside new additions to the Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Catalogue, as well as a 30% XP Boost on all activities and Bonus Care Packages for Ranks 10 and 20.

Red Dead Online: Sport of Kings

New Showdown Mode Plus 30% XP Boost on All Activities and More this Week

Battle on horseback to secure the burning torch and ride through all your team’s signal fires to score in Sport of Kings. The newest Red Dead Online Showdown Mode is a true test of horsemanship for two teams and four to eight players, with Sawed-off Shotguns for close combat and rare single-shot Dynamite Bow pickups on either side of the torch to help even the odds.

This week, the Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Catalogue receives a trio of new clothing items. Protect your head, neck and shoulders from the blazing sun while looking extraordinary in the Strung Sombrero. The Gibbston Pants, featuring hand-cut leather paneling and cross-stitched sides – perfect for town or trail. And the all-black variant of the Chuparosa Poncho, handwoven south of the border and shipped to the Wheeler, Rawson and Co. warehouse. Throw it over the shoulder for a debonair look.

And for the next two weeks all players who are at least Rank 10 will receive a care package featuring Bait and special Arrows like the Poison Arrow, a powerful weapon in taking down large game that is normally crafted using arrows, feathers and Oleander after the acquisition of a Poison Arrow Pamphlet.

Players who are at least Rank 20 will get an additional package that includes Provisions and Big Game Meats like the Minty Big Game Meat that is normally cooked after acquiring Mint and Big Game Meat and gives you a Gold Health Core.

To help you hit those Rank bonus thresholds, take advantage of a 30% XP Boost on all activities this week.
