The next two DLC packs for Red Dead Redemption begin September 21st 2010 with the release of the Free Roam release: the LIARS AND CHEATS PACK, which focuses on expanding the Free Roam multiplayer experience as well as adding new modes to Competitive Multiplayer.

The Liars and Cheats Pack will contain a great range of new highly-requested features to expand the Free Roam world including Multiplayer Poker and Liar’s Dice, as well as a brand new Competitive Multiplayer gameplay mode.

The Liars and Cheats Pack will also include the content previously announced as the Free Roam Pack. The Free Roam Pack was originally planned as a free download, but due to the platform networks’ restrictions on numbers of free packs we can give away (and our promise to bring you the free Hunting and Trading Outfits Pack – more on that below), we have instead added it to the Liars and Cheats Pack as one Free Roam release boasting the following features and more:

MULTIPLAYER POKER AND LIAR’S DICE GAMES
One of the most fan-requested features comes to multiplayer.

MULTIPLAYER HORSE RACES
Ride out against your friends and foes online - with mounted combat guns blazing.

THE EXPLOSIVE RIFLE
A devastatingly destructive new weapon with its own new single-player and multiplayer challenges.

7 NEW GANG HIDEOUTS
Posse up and take on the new Hideouts together to level up quickly

4 NEW HUNTING GROUNDS
New Hunting Grounds are now visible on the map for all to see, with some of the most action-packed wildlife hunting yet.

STRONGHOLD COMPETITIVE MULTIPLAYER MODE
Teams take turns in attack and defense in multi-tiered Competitive games.

POSSE SCORING AND LEADERBOARDS
Compare stats with other posses and compete to see who are the kings of the Free Roam frontier.

Plus, 15 additional multiplayer characters from the Red Dead Redemption storyline are being made available as multiplayer characters, and more all-new Achievements and Trophies

This pack will be released on September 21st worldwide for download on both PlayStation Network ($9.99) and Xbox LIVE (800 Microsoft Points).

Then, later this fall, another original mostly Single-Player DLC release: the UNDEAD NIGHTMARE PACK.

Unleashed upon the world of Red Dead Redemption, the Undead Nightmare Pack will feature an entirely new single-player campaign that follows John Marston as he tries to find a cure for the highly infectious zombie plague that has spread across the frontier.

In addition to the lengthy single-player adventure, The Undead Nightmare Pack features brand new gameplay mechanics, weapons, zombie animals, mythical creatures and even a brand new secret location.

All this, plus some new multiplayer modes and much more to be revealed in the weeks ahead. The Undead Nightmare Pack will be available simultaneously for download via PlayStation Network ($9.99) and Xbox LIVE (800 Microsoft Points). We’ll have lots more info soon.

Additionally, we are going to be bringing you some free downloadable goodies in the next few weeks including the anticipated Hunting and Trading Outfits Pack which will give everyone the Savvy Merchant and Expert Hunter Outfits and related Challenges, plus special compatibility to enable everyone online to see the Red Dead Revolver multiplayer character skins being used by those who have purchased any of the DLC – we will have full details on this very soon.
