Red Dead Redemption Gets Free Co Op DLC

Next month a free co op mission pack will be released for Red Dead Redemption on Xbox 360 and PS3. Its called “Outlaws To The End” and will expand the games multiplayer experience. They made this to pretty much give you more things to do in the game and to help you to appreciate the huge landscape the game is centered on. This is only one of 3 upcoming downloadable packs, which has me wondering; will they take a GTA approach? Hopefully the third doesn’t come a whole year from now. I know developers want to keep the game relevant for some time but lets not get out of hand. Best thing about these packs are they come with no price tag, I’m already planning out my crew for this game. Which reminds me, I forgot to renew my Xbox Live subscription, oops.

“Multiplayer in Red Dead Redemption offers players a whole new way to encounter the massive open world we’ve created, but we felt the experience would not be complete without co-op game play,” said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. “With these missions, we wanted to create new ways for players to share in the experience of engaging with this amazing landscape.”

One of three downloadable content packs, the ‘Outlaws To The End’ Co-Op Mission Pack features six all-new multiplayer missions full of outlaws, epic gunfights, and revolution for 2-4 players. The ‘Outlaws to the End’ Co-Op Mission Pack offers additional multiplayer XP rewards and brand new Achievements and Trophies to unlock. These six explosive and epic missions will play out across the game world, including:

“Walton’s Gold”
Walton’s Gang have taken control of a mining camp rich with gold. Fight through the camp and load your mine cart with as much gold as you can carry and get out as fast as you can – Walton’s boys have rigged the place to blow.

“The River”
Ride a raft down river, taking out rebel encampments along the way until you reach the rebel stronghold of Nosalida and a final epic battle for the town’s massive weapons caches. Watch out for Gatling gun-equipped enemy rafts.

“Ammunition”
The Mexican Army has the town of Tesoro Azul under siege. Storm the gates under heavy cannon, Gatling gun and sniper fire to destroy the Mexican artillery placements.
