A huge content update for Red Dead Online was released earlier today, opening up the new Naturalist Frontier Pursuit to an audience hungry for new activities. Alongside all the new content, Rockstar Games also introduced a ton of bug fixes, some quality of life improvements, and even a single new feature for the story mode.
Therefore, a new title update has been pushed for Read Dead Redemption 2 across all platforms, bringing the game up to version 1.20. There is an absolutely ridiculous amount of things going on under the hood in Red Dead Redemption 2 in this update, so if you’re the king of gamer who likes to read patch notes, buckle up. Or saddle up, in this case?
As you may expect, the bulk of the update here is related to the Naturalist content in Red Dead Online. This comprises a new Specialist role, the addition of various Legendary Animals, and a whole mess of new items, stores, missions, Free Roam Events, challenges, and more. You can also expect to see details on the new Outlaw Pass No.3, and even some early access bonus exclusives for folks playing the game over on the PlayStation 4.
Aside from all the new event content, you’ll find a laundry list of changes and improvements in the gameplay, revolving around things like streamlining menus, new Aim Assist options in the settings, matchmaking improvements, balancing adjustments, and even a new feature for the Story Mode that lets Arthur stash his weapons at camp.
All of the nitty-gritty (and there sure is a lot of nitty, and tons of gritty) was provided by Rockstar Games via its official website. There’s no way to make this pretty, so clear out your calendar and dive into the full Red Dead Redemption 2 update patch notes below:

Balancing and Improvements in Red Dead Online
Accessibility Improvements
Adjusted colors and transparency of threat indicators on the Radar minimap to improve visibility for different display brightness and in-game lighting conditions. This change has also been made in Story Mode.
Holding the Circle/B button to exit the Pause Menu from any screen is now quicker, matching the speed of Catalog and Shop Menus.
Gameplay Improvements
‘Buy Max’ and ‘Buy Max Carried’ options have been added to several consumable items in Shop Menus and the Catalogue for quicker purchases. The ‘Buy Max Carried’ option only considers held inventory space and not postbox space to prevent large accidental purchases.
Cooked Meat is now displayed in the Provisions section of the Item Wheel for quicker access
Improvements have been made to the Wardrobe system to allow more combinations and removals, including the ability for female characters to remove shirts while wearing corsets
Players can now Mercy Kill an animal that is bleeding out. This ability can be unlocked through the Naturalist Role.
Aim Assist options within the Settings Menu can now be changed while in a Red Dead Online session, but effects of this change will not apply until the player joins a new session
Reduced the chance of ragdoll when a player’s horse starts sliding due to a steep slope in Red Dead Online
Matchmaking Improvements
Matchmaking improvements have been made, reducing wait times and the chance of empty Showdown Mode lobbies after selecting a Showdown Playlist from the Landing Page. If no suitable matches are found, you may load into a Red Dead Online session while Showdown Mode matchmaking continues in the background.
The system for Showdown Mode teams has been improved, making it more likely for Posse Members, Parties and Friends to be placed on the same team. In extreme cases, some group members may be placed on the opposite team to make sure teams are balanced and gameplay is fair for all.
Continued improvements have been made to network error handling when dealing with poor connections between players, which should eliminate or reduce the frequency of these errors: 0x20010004, 0x20001006, 0x40003002, 0x54553100, 0x99300027
Role Improvements
Moonshine Recipes can now be pinned to the Player Log Menu, allowing quicker access to check required ingredients
A ‘Guest List’ has been added near the door of the Moonshine Shack Bar, allowing the owner to quickly invite nearby players

Improvements – Story Mode
The Weapon Locker from Red Dead Online has been added to Story Mode, allowing players to remove any unused weapons. It is available for use at the player’s camp from Chapter 2 onwards.
Daily Challenge Balancing
The following changes have been made, along with Menu improvements:
With the introduction of the Naturalist Role, up to 15 different Role Challenges will be provided each day, depending on current progression through each Role
A player can now complete a maximum of nine different Role Challenges each day, with the remainder being locked for the day once reaching this limit
The existing Challenge Goal for ‘7 Daily Challenges Completed’ has been replaced by two separate Challenge Goals – One for completing seven General Challenges per day, and another for completing nine Role Challenges per day, with each providing additional Gold rewards
The streak system remains unchanged, and completing either a General or Role Challenge each day will keep the streak active
Economy Balancing
Alligators now provide two different types of provisions when skinned depending on the size of the animal and sell for different amounts at the Butcher. The new Small Alligator Skin item can be stored on horseback like other pelts.
‘Free Weapon Component’ vouchers can no longer be used to purchase Variant skins for weapons at the Gunsmith
