Rockstar Games is releasing a new DLC for Red Dead Online, titled “Strange Tales of the West.” The announcement comes after years of neglecting the online mode, with fans expressing frustration over the lack of updates. The new DLC promises to bring a fresh set of challenges and mysteries to the game, with players investigating supernatural occurrences.
The trailer highlights four new Telegram Missions that can be accessed through the game’s post office or player menu. One mission involves facing off against the undead, sparking speculation about an Undead Nightmare-like expansion. However, not all fans are optimistic about this development, with some expressing disappointment and frustration over the lack of attention given to Red Dead Online.
A fan, HazardousHDTV, took to Twitter to express their sentiments, stating that Rockstar has finally delivered a request from fans, but it’s likely only available through the game’s online mode. Another fan, DeadPixel62, lamented the game’s potential for greatness being left unfulfilled due to lack of attention from the developer.
As Rockstar wraps up development on Grand Theft Auto VI, fans can only hope that this new DLC will spark a renewed interest in Red Dead Online and inspire the company to revisit the idea of an Undead Nightmare expansion.
