Recommended Videos

On September 10th, Rockstar will be unleashing a brand new update for Red Dead Online, and it’s looking like it’s the first in many that aims to improve the Red Dead experience and not just by tweaking gameplay. This update will be the one that introduces Frontier Pursuits to the world. Frontier Pursuits are the class system that Rockstar has decided to implement in-game, allowing you to tailor-make an experience that is unique to your character. Other things will be added to the update such as the ability to change your character’s look without resetting all your progress, new ability cards, and more dynamic events but I’ll cover those closer to the time, if not on the release date. For today I’d like to focus on what each of the three classes available to you are going to be and what skills and items you get for each one.
