While GTA continues to absorb most of the Rockstar Games resources and attention, there may be surprising news coming for Red Dead Redemption 2 fans.
According to the reliable source Videtechuk, the study would have sent an email to the community in which he anticipates the arrival of new missions for Red Dead Online (find the complete game on Amazon), in Rollout from today, Tuesday 1 July.
The message reads: “The author Theodore Levin needs your help to investigate the unusual and the inexplicable in Strange Tales of the West, a new series of four disturbing telegram missions available from tomorrow in Red Dead Online. Get the hunt for non-molates, rebellious automotive, swampy beasts and more … “
An update that, if confirmed, suggests a return in style of the darker and experimental side of Red Dead Online.
Among the references to “Non-Morte wounds” (zombies?) And “rebellious automators” (a reference to the creations of Marko Dragic?), The package recalls the atmosphere of Undead Nightmare, the highly appreciated dlc horror-western of Red Dead Redemption, which fans have never forgotten.
Rockstar had declared in 2022 that he had moved most of the team to GTA VI, suggesting that the development of RDR2 was now closed.
A message in the credits of the last update strengthened that impression, thanking the players as if to definitively close a chapter. But no. Apparently, the West still has stories to tell.
It is curious, and at times ironic, that Rockstar rediscovers Red Dead online right now, after having neglected it for years to the point of generating public protests such as the #savereddeadonline movement.
But if new missions inspired by the occult really await us, with automotive and zombies in the desert, perhaps it is worth putting back the dirty boots of mud and returning to horseback. Also because, frankly, the Red Dead Redemption 2 West still remains one of the most lively and fascinating settings ever seen in a video game.
Staying on the subject, have you read that Red Dead Online also has a serious problem of toxicity towards women?
