Red Dead Online will feature various modes and a leak is said to already know these. Among them is one that closely resembles Battle Royale. This could also involve weekly challenges.
At the beginning of November, there was already a leak about Red Dead Online that cost a gaming site over €1,100,000. It was said that the online mode would likely receive a Battle Royale mode. Another leak seems to confirm this now.
What does the new leak say? A screenshot was released just before the beta launch via RockstarIntel, showing an overview of the playlists in Red Dead Online. From this, it can be inferred that Red Dead Online is filled with various quests and modes.
Battle Royale mode with limited weapons hinted
The leaked mission list shows the mode “Make it Count” and the description screams Battle Royale.
Description of the mode: “A true test of ingenuity – Use only a bow, a handful of arrows, and/or throwing knives to be the last survivor. With a constantly shrinking play area, there is no escape.”
What makes the mode special? If the leak is to be believed, Red Dead Online is planning a Battle Royale. It will likely have various variants where you can only use specific weapons. The leak mentions throwing knives and bow and arrow. However, there may be further variants with other weapons.
Weekly challenges like in GTA?
The mode could also hint at weekly challenges: The leak of the playlist could also suggest that these are alternating weekly challenges. Something similar is done by Destiny with its strikes, which have weekly modifications.
In GTA Online, challenges run like this: There are playlists for different modes like races or adventures. You then play different maps with other weapons or vehicles one after the other. Weekly, different playlists provide additional bonuses.
A weekly rotation with various challenges is also possible. The mode “Make it Count” could be one of them.
Leak remains leak: As this mode and the entire playlist have not yet been officially confirmed, we cannot say with certainty that they will find their way into the game. Similarly, we cannot say if the mode’s description in the screenshot will be as it should if the leak is true.
First Beta of Red Dead Online starts today: Those who own an Ultimate Edition of Red Dead Redemption 2 can already play the beta from today, November 27. Everyone else will have to wait a bit longer. We will soon be able to experience which modes will actually be available in Red Dead Online.
