New Showdown for Red Dead Online Beta
A recent update for Red Dead Online Beta included a new showdown mode: Plunder. Plunder is a new team-based mode where each team is tasked with transporting resources from a central location to your team’s base. The Red Dead Newswire describes the new mode, which I’ve quoted below:
In the Red Dead Online Beta’s new Showdown Mode Plunder, frontier resources are in short supply - work with your team to fight through opposition and capture supplies from a central location to deliver it to your team’s base.
In addition to capturing loot from that central location, you can also use cunning to steal it from your opponent's base. But be careful - when holding you'll be visible to all other players. Keep your Health, Stamina and Dead Eye cores filled and use tonics to boost your tank to gold before making a run for packages and take advantage of team-based Dead Eye Ability cards like Focus Fire that lets your teammates cause a little more damage while your Dead Eye is active.
The update also brings with it some new clothing options, such as
Owanjila Hat
Porter Jacket
Concho Pants
Finally, there are some additional bonuses stated in the newswire post. Feel free to browse the changes here. The Red Dead Online Beta is available now for any player with a copy of Red Dead Redemption 2.
