Rockstar Games has shared new information about the next update coming to Red Dead Online. Blood Money revolves around Guido Martelli – right-hand man and underboss to the infamous Angelo Bronte. Martelli needs gunslingers to recover a valuable commodity known as Capitale. Capitale was originally designed as a unique system of exchange for more sensitive business dealings away from the watchful eyes of the taxman, it’s since ended up in the hands of nearly every lowlife across the five states. Now, Bronte and Martelli want it back – If you can find and return it, you will be rewarded with access to more worthwhile criminal opportunities. Alongside the new story content, new types of work and new rewards are coming to Red Dead Online. Blood Money will be released next Tuesday, July 13.
As players search for Capitale, Martelli has tasked with some of the West’s most reprehensible soldiers of fortune with leads for Capitale. Visiting these contacts reveals a new type of work called Crimes. These will range from cloak-and-dagger coach holdups to multi-stage robberies – including kidnapping, brutal debt collections, and more. You can embark on Crimes by yourself or with a full Posse. As you play, you can find Capitale to return in hidden chests or on the remains of those who’ve crossed your path. You can also come across Capitale while in Free Roam in unlocked Homesteads and vulnerable Camps.
As you accumulate enough Capitale, Martelli will reveal another new type of work called Opportunities. These are dispatched by Martelli to stifle a rising Lemoyne senator who is disrupting Bronte operations throughout the region. Each Opportunity reveals various ways to approach the task at hand – listen into nearby conversations or look out for important targets to uncover new paths to completion and weaken the politician’s position by bringing each of the Three Jewels of the West to Martelli. the first three Opportunities will be available on July 13 while two more will be released later.
A series of four distinct rapid-fire passes called The Quick Draw Club will arrive in consecutive installments over the coming months. Each membership entitles you to rewards, bonuses, and items. Each consecutive pass you purchase earns you additional perks and rewards. Each pass costs 25 Gold Bars that you can earn back by completing the Pass’ 25 Ranks. Purchasing all four passes grants you the upcoming Halloween Pass 2 for free. In response to feedback, the Skill and Satchel Pamphlets previously released via the Outlaw Pass- such as the ability to Fast Travel from a Wilderness Camp – will be placed on general sale at the Fence. Over the next weeks and months, some of the most requested clothing items from Outlaw Passes No. 2 and 3 will be available to purchase. These include Marston’s outfits, The Clelland, Arthur’s Haraway outfit, Bill Williamson’s Dedham outfit, and Javier’s The Zapatero outfit.
The Blood Money update also brings in NVIDIA DLSS support to all Windows users with eligible NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics cards for Red Dead Online and Red Dead Redemption 2.
