The offer is available for those having playedRed Dead Onlinebetween December 1 and February 15. Fortunately it does not matter which version, either standalone or part of the full game purchase. Some of the benefits are significant for consistent players. 5000 Club XP, a free Stable slot, andtwo free ability cardsshould help new players get a leg up. Plus, depending on their starter horse, players can get a free horse under rank 40 once receiving the gift.
That is not all though, and Rockstar Games is adding in plenty of other odds and ends for gamers. There are a few typical type of rewards, like a free hat, coat, and ammunition which can be helpful for buffing up a character. There are some consumable items like tonics and a fast travel voucher too. But along with the free benefits come special discounts. Fans will be able topick up a weapon for 50% off, a non-role pamphlet for 40%, and anything from the Wilderness Outfitters for 30%.
All in the all, the celebration forRed Dead Online’s standalone version is not too shabby. Some of the rewards will be useful despite the one and done nature. Though, a free Stable slot is handy when wanting to reimburse a free horse as well. Players can snag the rewards within 72 hours, found at the camp lockbox or Post Office. Little benefits like these can go a long way for encouraging fans to keep engaging with the game.
This celebration will probably not impress hardcore players. DespiteRed Dead Onlinebeing out for awhile now, these small bundles seem to be the only content fans get. EvenGTA Online is still receiving major updates, but Rockstar’s western multiplayer gets a free hat. It seems strange that the developer is celebrating the success of the standalone version, but without any real content update for the game. Nevertheless, gamers who recently got into the multiplayer have a decent bundle of gifts heading their way.
Red Dead Onlineis available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
