Rockstar Releases Undead Nightmare Info

Rockstar has announced some new details for their upcoming Red Dead Redemption downloadable content, Undead Nightmare.  Four zombie classes enter the fray, each possessing unique characteristics, attacks, and defenses.  Mythical creatures roam the frontier, alongside zombie cougars, bears, wolves and many more.  Taking down the undead requires non-traditional weaponry, including the new Blunderbuss, which can be loaded with looted remains of fallen zombies.  The deadly Tomahawk and the Explosive Rifle make a triumphant comeback and will be available exclusively for those who downloaded the Legends and Killers Pack and the Liars and Cheats Pack.

The all new single-player narrative features new challenges, quests, and ambient events, including Missing Persons, where the player must find a missing survivor lost amongst the throngs of undead. New competitive multiplayer and multiplayer free roam content includes Undead Overrun, a brand new multiplayer survival mode where waves of infected attack and players must work together to stay alive against increasingly difficult odds.

“Undead Nightmare turns the world of Red Dead Redemption upside down,” said Sam Houser, founder of Rockstar Games. “The supernatural vibe and the return of some favorite characters create a whole new game inside an already incredible world.”

The Undead Nightmare Pack will hit XBox Live and the Playstation Network on October 26th.
