A recent update for Red Dead Online gives players three new missions to choose from in the game. Although new updates in Red Dead Online have been sparse, these three missions offer something new for fans of the online iteration of Red Dead Redemption.
It's been a tough road for many fans of Red Dead Online. Although the world of Red Dead Redemption is perfect for an online format, some fans of the game have criticized Rockstar for showing favoritism towards GTA Online and neglecting Red Dead Online when it comes to regular updates and content. Players have even gone so far as to host a funeral in Red Dead Online as a way to mark the death of the game due to its lack of content. Despite these issues, there are still many fans of the game who have been hanging on to Red Dead Online as they still find the overall experience fun. For those who have been craving some new content, a recent update will make many players happy.
There are now three new Telegram Missions in Red Dead Online that players can choose to take part in. The three missions that players are able to choose from are called Hostage to Fortune, The Bell Tolls, and Trial & Tribulation. Players who have been waiting for some action can finally jump in on some new missions thanks to this update.
When it comes to what the new Red Dead Online missions entail, Hostage to Fortune involves searching for a chief witness in a court case who has run off, tasking you with finding them before other bounty hunters do first. The second mission, The Bell Tolls, requires players to guard a train that is carrying some of the O'Driscoll Boys to the gallows. Lastly, Trial & Tribulation has players sneaking families out of Valentine after it has been taken hostage by a group of thugs that are terrorizing the town.
Despite the player count for Red Dead Online falling, these new missions will hopefully breathe some life back into the game. Red Dead Online has what it takes to be a truly great online experience, and it's unfortunate that it hasn't lived up to its incredible potential. However, there is still hope for the game to gain a second wind, and this new update will hopefully bring forth even more content and missions in the following months for players to enjoy.
Red Dead Online is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
