Red Dead Redemption 2 has been regarded as a modern-day classic since it was first released back in 2018. As Rockstar Games’ last major release, Red Dead Redemption 2 is technically the third entry in the Red Dead franchise, but is considered to be the best with praise for its narrative, gameplay, voice acting, setting, soundtrack, and more. However, with Rockstar swiftly turning its attention to Grand Theft Auto VI, the Red Dead franchise has taken a backseat in recent years, but that has not stopped some exciting updates in the meantime.

So, if you are looking for an excuse to head back to the Wild West, Rockstar has you covered in an exciting new download.

Red Dead Redemption 2’s Online Mode Is Still Putting Out New Content

Launching alongside Red Dead Redemption 2 back in 2018, Red Dead Online is back with a brand-new event as players “hit the Gravy Train by Completing Trader Sales”. On top of 3x RDO$, Gold, and XP on Call to Arms, players can also earn big bonuses whilst fishing, and most importantly, get their hands on some limited-time clothing.

By completing five Trader Sales, you will receive the Fortune Buckle but completing all Trader Daily Challenges will bag you the Tennessee Walker Camp Flag. Last but not least, the Burdall Hat is rewarded to those who reach Rank 20 as a Prominent Trader.

Grab These Red Dead Freebies While You Can

If you are interested in the limited-time clothes, you will be able to earn a unique piece each week by completing various challenges. This weekend, 7-13th April, you will be able to grab the blue Prieto Poncho by reaching Wave 5 in the Call of Arms event. This is the second limited-time clothing piece up for grabs this month, with chaps, a treasure map, and 50% off any weapon being available up until May. Luckily, you can find out what you are eligible for on the official Rockstar blog. Additionally, logging in any time across the next month will bag you the tan Carbow Double Bandolier.

This is just some of the free downloads available for Red Dead Online throughout April and May and gives players the perfect excuse to boot up the multiplayer Red Dead Redemption 2 addition. After all, who does not want some limited-time freebies?
