The new year is here and that means new opportunities for those in the frontier. Red Dead Online is offering role bonuses this January as a good way to start 2023.
With the seasonal weather here and celebratory gatherings in full swing, there's no question that booze and blankets are hot commodities at this time of the year. Even better, Traders and Moonshiners earn double rewards until January 30 for all successful sales.
Meanwhile, for January, Collectors and Naturalists get 3X RDO$ and XP on these Free Roam events:
- Condor Egg
- Salvage
- Legendary Animal Tagging
- Protect Legendary Animal
Extra Rewards
For this month, those looking for more extra rewards can try and see if they have what it takes to grab the Il Sovrano Diamond. It's not going to be easy since even some of the most skilled crooks that tried have failed. Those able to succeed receive a bunch of rewards including 2X RDO$, gold and XP.
Players looking to administer justice can do some cleaning and take out miscreants making trouble in towns. There's 4X XP available to those who take out Gang Hideouts.
