Red Dead Online Update Monthly News (Jan. 31, 2023)

Rockstar Games is happy to announce this month’s new content for Red Dead Online.

Get Triple Rewards on Hardcore Telegram Missions in Red Dead Online

Plus, Double Rewards on Free Roam Missions and the Trade Route Free Roam Event, Valentine’s Day Bonuses, and More

Those willing to test their limits in Hardcore Telegram missions this month will receive generous compensation for their efforts. Meanwhile, additional profitable opportunities are abound on the frontier with Double Rewards for Free Roam Missions and the Trade Route Free Roam Event. Plus, lovers and loners alike can benefit from a host of Valentine’s Day bonuses.

3X RDO$, Gold, and XP on Hardcore Telegram Missions

Take on a Free Aim only challenge against highly skilled enemies in Hardcore Telegram missions. Show your tenacity to earn Triple Rewards on missions in A Tough Business and Skelding’s Contract telegrams.

2X RDO$, Gold, and XP on Trade Route

Opportunity lurks around every corner … this month is a particularly fortuitous time for Traders to show off their unique set of skills in Trade Route, a Trader Free Roam event doling out 2X RDO$, Gold, and XP.

Valentine’s Day Bonuses

Play Red Dead Online this Valentine’s Day to receive 5 Chocolate Bars, 1 Brandy, and Pink and Black Oakley Boots, all items befitting the holiday’s romantic mood. Spread the love by emoting to another player and receive an Offer for 50% off any Established or Distinguished Role Item. All Rewards and Offers will be delivered within 72 hours of completion.

2X RDO$, Gold, and XP on Free Roam Missions

Carry out assassinations, rescue and escort captives, and more in Free Roam Missions — acquiring skill, respect, and 2X RDO$, Gold, and XP along the way. Take on missions solo, or with a Posse for a 30% XP bonus — which applies to Free Roam Events and Bounties throughout the month, too. All Persistent Posse creation fees are waived during this period, so gather ’round the campfire with some friendly faces.

Community Outfit

Love is in the air so there’s no better month than February to look sharp and dress the part. This outfit inspired by BreadBoxin is sure to turn some heads. Valentine isn’t just the capital of The Heartlands, after all. Procure the needed pieces for this look from participating Tailors or the Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Catalogue all month long:

Inkstone Hat
Hunter Jacket
Everyday Overshirt (Male) or Winford Shirtwaist (Female)
Opulent Vest
Rifleman Gloves
Cabrera Pants
Lumber Boots
Gerden Copper Spurs
Bandana

2X RDO$, Gold and XP on the Ember of the East Blood Money Opportunity

Knowing where to look is only half the battle in the pursuit of the coveted Ember of the East — a ruby too beautiful to remain hidden away in the hills of Annesburg for only Senator Ricard to enjoy. Locate and loot the gem for 2X RDO$, Gold, and XP.
