[/spoil]The innovative competitive multiplayer modes in Red Dead Redemption combine classic multiplayer challenges with the massive open terrain of the Wild West. Each match begins with a tense standoff, where the last man or team standing gains a head start on the best sniper location, weapon, or hideout. Every match takes advantage of a specially designed town or landmark, where players can enter via a meeting point or playlist.
Players have the option to face the territory alone or as part of a posse with team-based or solo matches. In Shootout, players face off against each other or rival posses in a match to the death. Catch gold fever in Gold Rush, as each player must capture as many bags of gold and bring them to strategic drop off locations. Teamwork is crucial when playing Hold Your Own, Red Dead Redemption's spin on capture the flag, as well as Grab the Bag.
Weapons and ammunition are scattered around the map, while completing weapons challenges with tiers and headshots yields a golden version of that gun. Dead Eye plays a big role in multiplayer, letting you paint multiple targets for quick, satisfying kills.
