Red Dead Online Adds New Frontier-Style Capture The Flag Game Mode; Rare Cosmetics Now Available

Rockstar Games has just added a new game mode to the Red Dead Online player versus player Showdown Series. Starting today, players can take part in a “frontier-style” Capture the Flag game mode, called Spoils of War, which can be accessed through the Featured Series menu.

“In Spoils of War, 2-16 players compete in this team-based mode to defend their stockpile and raid each other’s. Each team must steal loot from their opponent's base and return it to theirs, while defending their own stash. Whichever team steals the most by the end of the match wins. You can take on this new Showdown mode across a variety of locations including Fort Mercer and Valentine.”

To mark the release Spoils of War, players will get a 20% EXP boost for all Showdown game modes. Players will also get eight (8) extra Dynamite Arrows for every Spoils of War win.

Aside from the new game mode, Rockstar Games has also added exclusive new outfits to the in-game cash shop so you can conquer the frontier in style. These outfits will be available for a limited time only and will be replaced by new ones every week or so. Be sure to regularly check out the catalogue so you don’t miss out on these rare cosmetic items.
