Rockstar has taken to their blog to announce that Red Dead Online will be receiving some special Halloween-themed events this Holiday season! The blog post from Rockstar themselves is pretty dense, detailing the return of the Halloween Pass 2, new locations for Hallows’ call-to-arm events, and a ton of other in-game events such as new unlockable outfits, missions, and more.

To start off the excitement, let’s talk about the return of the Halloween Pass 2 return! This happened last year for Red Dead Online and was a major hit with the community. Rockstar has decided to bring back the pass and will be limited from now to October 31st. Players who bought it last year will pick up right where they left off in terms of progression while new members can join up and earn exclusive rewards spread across 15 ranks that include masks to help conceal your identity, clothing items stained with the blood of past crimes, and accessories sure to inspire terror in your victims.

Following the Halloween Pass 2, Rockstar detailed the all-new Hallows’ Call to Arms locations. These new locations will call for you and your squad to help defend holdouts which in return will 3X RDO$ and XP. The type of enemies you will encounter will range from foes, to frenzied animals and the ghastly ghost train. This event will be happening all month so make sure to jump on and take advantage of the spooky season.

Players will earn special bonus gifts for completing missions and partaking in the month-long-themed event. Special dates have been detailed as well so you should know what’s happening and when it’s happening. Red Dead Online has been a big component when it comes to Red Dead Redemption 2. It seems Rockstar is still putting a ton of energy into the game as they are a bunch of great new stuff heading our way.

In related news, we have heard confirmation from Rockstar that we will not be receiving a Red Dead Redemption or GTA 4 remaster anytime soon. Many fans were expecting to see some sort of remaster/remake for these two iconic titles. They hoped they would make their way to the next generation of consoles, however, Rockstar has confirmed it is not true. Perhaps down the road we could see a remake/ remaster for one of these titles, as both of them are classic games that the community would love to see re-done. Learn more about the remake/remaster debacle for RDR and GTA 4 right here!

Red Dead Redemption 2 is available now for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. Are you excited about the upcoming Halloween-themed event? Let us know in the comments below!
