In Read Dead Online, the multiplayer of Red Dead Redemption 2, players find zombies. They believe in an “Undead Nightmare” DLC or nasty glitches.
Who found the zombies? On social media, some players report finding a type of undead NPC in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2 Online. They appear surprisingly on the map and confuse players.
What kind of zombies are they? The discovered bodies are characterized by glowing eyes, for example. It looks really creepy when the eye sockets shine in a bright green. A glimpse of this is shown by Reddit user groats_active:
Other users in the Reddit thread report having such encounters in the online world of Red Dead Redemption 2 as well.
But there are further reports about the zombies. The Twitter channel KillazSpain shows another lifeless body with the special eyes:
Others found these “zombies” with bluish skin. A Reddit user notes that so far there are mostly screenshots of female variants with these distinctive features.
Is a Zombie DLC coming for RDR 2 Online? Undead Nightmare? The Speculations
What is being discussed? In the RDR 2 community, these explosive finds are being hotly debated. Three points are at the forefront:
- This might be an event starting too early
- Red Dead Online could receive an Undead Nightmare DLC
- This is all just a glitch and not intended
What supports an event? Halloween starts on October 31, 2019 for us. Perhaps the zombies should bring the necessary atmosphere to the online world of RDR 2.
What supports a DLC? An expansion with zombies, the original Undead Nightmare, was released as a premium addon for Red Dead Redemption during Halloween week in 2010. It included singleplayer missions, side quests, and other events as well as multiplayer modes. Fans have desired such a DLC for RDR 2 for a long time.
On Reddit a user writes “I don’t have too many hopes, but it’s still nice to see how potential zombie NPCs look. It simply shows how well they can create zombies for a real Undead DLC.”
What supports a glitch? A player writes on Reddit, he was led to the corpse by a barking dog and when he arrived there, he was ambushed. “I think this corpse belongs to a glitching trap, which is why the corpse stood upright.” Other players also confirm that they found such NPCs that felt “broken” in the game. When you threw them to the ground, they didn’t fall flat on the ground, but glitched.
Players in Red Dead Online are familiar with glitches. One caused mountains of dead pumas.
Besides the strange NPCs, you can now find three new roles in Red Dead Online. Have you tried them yet?
