Moonshiners are a fairly recent role, and its addition to the game gave playersthe ability to start their ownRed Dead Onlinebusinesses. Although Moonshiners and Traders are benefiting the most from this week’s event, every player can participate in the new Showdown Series, which allows players to participate in an “explosive variation of Name Your Weapon.” The event gives players extra points when completing kills with combustible weapons.
This isn’t the first timeRed Dead Onlinehas offered players an 50% XP bonus. Earlier this month, the bonus went to players whocompleted Free Roam Events. The Wild West-themed game seems to be offering a lot of opportunities for players this year. This might be because stay-at-home orders and social distancing across the country have led to a spike in people playing video games from home.
Red Dead Onlinehasn’t had a completely positive month, so it makes sense that the game might be offering players something to make up for a recent technical issue that has caused problems for some players. The game has been experiencingserver issues lately, leading to “limited functionality” for some. Hopefully that issue will get resolved soon, and when it does, players will have an added incentive to play more and get XP bonuses this week.
Moonshiners and Traders get the potential XP bonuses, and Moonshiners also get Bar and Band expansions, making this is a great in-game opportunity for multiple roles and therefore multiple players. Anyone who needs a new saddle or stable can also benefit from the sales. Not only that, but Rockstar recently announced that it would bedonating a percentage of its revenuefor the next two months to COVID-19 relief efforts. Players can get extra gear for their game and donate to a good cause at the same time.
