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.

Del Lobos Leader Wanted for a Bloody Streak of Roadside Stick-Ups

Recently installed as head of the notorious Del Lobos gang, Carmela "La Muñeca" Montez and her posse have claimed responsibility for a recent string of bloody highway robberies that have brought local law enforcement to heel. La Muñeca is as cold as her nickname suggests – her eyes dead and unloving, her facial expression a blank mask. She’s moved the gang up into West Elizabeth, where they’ve taken over Hanging Dog Ranch with the aid of a devastating war wagon.

Those in possession of the Prestigious Bounty Hunter License can pick up Carmela Montez’s wanted poster at any sheriff's office to begin pursuit. Revisit the Bounty Board again after a brief period to replay the mission at an increased difficulty.

As a bonus, all Bounties are currently paying out 50% extra - including the Infamous Bounties, which are deeper 3-part missions available for Prestigious Bounty Hunters. Visit each Bounty Board for a different adventure and track down the most wanted criminals all across the land.

Plus, all Bounty Hunters can get 30% off a Horse of their choosing this week, while those bold enough to complete a Legendary Bounty Mission will get an additional Offer for 30% off a Weapon of their choice.
