Red Dead Online, the multiplayer mode of Red Dead Redemption 2, will soon receive three different roles that players can take on. Additionally, there’s a new feature for cowboys, as the online mode will also have two different Battle Passes, allowing players to unlock rewards.
What is this pass? Rockstar recently presented the content coming to players in Red Dead Online with the next update. The next content patch for the online mode will be released on September 10th and will introduce the three new roles Bounty Hunter, Trader, and Collector.
There will also be two Battle Passes, one free and one paid version. All players automatically receive the free Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Club Pass. With this pass, players level up by earning XP and can unlock various rewards that they can keep forever. The pass runs from September 10th to November 18th.
The paid version is known as the Outlaw Pass. It costs 35 gold bars, the real currency in Red Dead Online, and is supposed to offer players even more rewards. This includes exclusive clothing, weapon styles, items for the camp, cash, and even gold bars. If the cowboys manage to climb all 70 ranks of the Outlaw Pass, they will even get back their spent 35 gold bars.
What else has been introduced? Besides the Battle Passes, Rockstar has also released a video about the three new roles. The short clip provides insight into how the three jobs will play.
What are players saying? On Twitter and in the RDR Reddit, the Battle Pass is being discussed. While some appreciate that there are more ways to unlock rewards, others question why many games are currently opting for such passes. Recently, Destiny 2 announced a Battle Pass system.
