Red Dead Redemption: Deadly Assassin Outfit, Golden Guns Weapon Pack and War Horse Now Available on Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Network

Posted on April 8 2011, 2:30pm | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Games

UPDATE: The Deadly Assassin Outfit, Golden Guns Weapon Pack and War Horse are now available across Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Network worldwide.

As promised in a recent Asked & Answered, the Red Dead Redemption items originally released as preorder exclusive content will now be made available for download to everyone via Xbox LIVE (80 Microsoft Points each) and PlayStation Network ($.99 each) next week. Look for them to start appearing for download on the PlayStation Store and Xbox LIVE Marketplace on Tuesday, April 12th. They should be fully available across all territories on both platforms within 24-48 hours thereafter based on the networks' respective update cycles. We'll let you know here at this post in an update as soon as they're confirmed available everywhere worldwide.



The Deadly Assassin Outfit
John Marston's Deadly Assassin outfit causes your Dead Eye meter to regenerate at twice the speed.  With more Dead Eye, you have more time to place each shot with total accuracy, making you the deadliest gunslinger in any fight.



The Golden Guns Weapon Pack
Available for use in the Red Dead Redemption Single Player story, the player who wields the Golden Guns receives more Fame for each kill.  The more Fame you get, the more in-game side missions become available.  So there will be more opportunities to duel, more kidnapped townsfolk to rescue and you can bribe lawmen for less.




The War Horse
There are countless horses to be found in the massive world of Red Dead Redemption, but none is stronger, faster or tougher than the War Horse. Whether storming gang hideouts, exploring the wilderness for hidden treasure, or outrunning the law, the War Horse gives gunslingers an advantage in nearly every situation.

Apologies to everyone for having to wait so long to get these available as DLC as there were some unanticipated technical delays - for those of you inquiring about the expected availability of the L.A. Noire preorder bonuses as DLC after game release, those should become available as DLC much, much sooner.

                        i think there should be a dlc where you can make your own outfit or rockstar should make a deal where you can desine 1 and if they like it make to unlock in multiplayern or download it for singleplayer. btw rockstar thanks 4 the awesome series of games they are the best games in the world rdr is my favorite so far sa is my 2nd

                              Is there any chance of releasing more multiplayer characters such as Jonah, Eli, Welsh, French, DeSanta, Escuella, Ricketts, etc.

                                MP: Need a Dutch hideout in West Elisabeth. Why not change on how the hideouts are defended. that is have outlaws show up at different locations sometimes so you do not know for sure where they will be or how many. Each wave should be unpredictable so the game has more reply enjoyment.

                                  Nice!

                                  Im hoping for more female playable character to multiplayer. I have all DLC but there are still so few female characters to play. There are alot females in story mode, that coul easily be in multiplayer i think ; ). Zombie free roam would be very cool too :).

                                  Thx R* for making the best game i have ever played ^^

                                    there should be a undead free roam,dlc pack for bow arrow,a story line were you can play as jack marston,and dutch's old gang with john marston

                                      I'd love to see more multiplayer characters and maybe an undead ---htmare free roam... that'd be sooo awesome.
                                      AND MORE WOMEN CHARACTERS! :D ones that actually look nice... most of the women characters are just plain ugly.
