Red Dead Online (ALL) Adds New Legendary Bounty, Collector Items And Attire

by Rainier on Sept. 24, 2019 @ 6:20 p.m. PDT

Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America's unforgiving heartland, featuring a vast and atmospheric world that will also provide the foundation for a brand-new online multiplayer experience.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America at the dawn of the modern age.

America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed.

After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him.

Built from the ground up for the latest hardware, Red Dead Online blends the classic multiplayer of the original Red Dead Redemption with the best of everything we have learned since then about creating deep multiplayer experiences. The result is something completely new and fun, and an experience that will continue to expand and evolve over time as we gain valuable feedback from our community in the Beta period.

Built from the ground up for the latest hardware, Red Dead Online blends the classic multiplayer of the original Red Dead Redemption with the best of everything we have learned since then about creating deep multiplayer experiences. The result is something completely new and fun, and an experience that will continue to expand and evolve over time.

With the gameplay of Red Dead Redemption 2 as its foundation, Red Dead Online transforms the vast and deeply detailed landscapes, cities, towns and habitats of Red Dead Redemption 2 into a new, living online world ready to be shared by multiple players. Create and customize your character, tailor your abilities to suit your play style and head out into a new frontier full of things to experience.

Explore the world solo or with friends. Form or join a Posse to ride with up to seven players; gather around the fire at your Camp; head out hunting or fishing; visit bustling towns; battle enemy gangs and attack their hideouts; hunt for treasure; take on missions and interact with familiar characters from across the five states; or fight against other outlaws in both spontaneous skirmishes and pitched set-piece battles; compete with other players or whole Posses in open world challenges and much more.

Red Dead Online’s latest Legendary Bounty has been added to the Bounty Boards. Known as The Wolf Man for his affinity with the deadly animal, the target was last seen near Lake Isabella in Ambarino. Players are advised to bring Predator Bait to help deal with the Wolf Man and any of his friends. Those who bring him to justice will receive the fur lined Red Strayhorn Boots as an additional reward. Replaying the mission at higher difficulty levels will require The Wolf Man to be delivered alive.

Also new this week is the latest Collectible List: The Saint Denis Collection, featuring Cognac, the Beaulieux Diamond Ring and Beauchêne Ruby Earrings, with rewards for Collector’s who turn in individual items to Madam Nazar in-person or via a Post Office by September 30th, and bigger rewards for those who turn in the full set. Meanwhile, this week’s Elimination Series (Free Aim) is now available.

Legendary Bounty: The Wolf Man

While his birth name is still unknown, an estranged and violent hermit known only as The Wolf Man is wanted for a string of brutal murders. Those who seek this feral vagrant be warned: he is believed to have retreated into the snowy foothills near Lake Isabella, an area rife with apex predators such as bears and wolves. Carrying Predator Bait is strongly advised.

A short while after completing a Legendary Bounty, it will reappear on Bounty Boards to be played at an increased difficulty - indicated by the number of stars present on the poster. When taking on The Wolf Man at a four-star or five-star difficulty level, he must be turned in alive to receive your reward.

What's New?

Licensed Bounty Hunters who complete The Wolf Man Legendary Bounty at any difficulty level will be rewarded with an exclusive red colorway of the fur lined Red Strayhorn Boots, retrievable within 48 hours of completing the task, in the wardrobe under the ‘Boots’ section.

Collectors have a new valuable Weekly Collectible List this week with the Saint Denis Collection consisting of Cognac, the Beaulieux Diamond Ring and Beauchêne Ruby Earrings. Find all the items and turn them into Madam Nazar or send from a Post Office by September 30th. If you're looking to hone your gunslinging skills, this week's Elimination Series (Free Aim) is designed to challenge and reward the most experienced marksmen in the West. Make sure to check the Online menu each week to see the latest competitive Free Aim Series.

New Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Attire

The Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Catalogue expands its offerings this week with a sizeable shipment of diverse new attire. Players in search of new headwear can try the Trilby Hat, Hurley Cap, Ledbetter Hat and Bartley Cap on for size. The new Fuentes Poncho and Killiman Vest offer panache and style, while the Hollman Pants are a picture of American utility and durability.

The Chaftin and Olmo Shirts are perfect additions to any gentleman’s wardrobe, while ladies of the frontier might be interested in the stylish Huerta and Winford Shirtwaists as well as the new hide-crafted Hadley Skirt. A new pair of sturdy Rutherford Boots are sure to survive even the most taxing of journeys, while the fur-lined and laced Strayhorn Boots are the perfect footwear for scaling the snow swept peaks and valleys across the five states. Accessorize with the Inglett Scarf or a new design on a classic neckerchief Bandana and you'll be sure to turn heads.

Stay tuned for news on more clothing shipments, Legendary Bounty Targets, a new Free Roam Event and more in the coming weeks.
