There’s a long list of new features in this update, but Crimes and Opportunities are the highlights of this patch. Blood Money sees players working with Guido Martelli, the right-hand man of infamous Saint-Denis mobster Angelo Bronte. Martelli tasks players with obtaining Capitale, a new currency that is used for sensitive business dealings and other facets of the criminal underworld.
Capitale can be obtained by completing Crimes, which range from stagecoach holdups to multi-stage robberies. To earn Capitale, players will embark on all sorts of missions dealing with kidnapping, debt collection, and much more. Crimes can be played either solo or with a posse of friends.
In Free Roam, Capitale can also be obtained through exploration. Hidden chests may contain stashes of cash, and the corpses of fallen foes may hold some Capitale. Also, you may hear of vulnerable camps or homesteads ripe for robberies. After amassing enough Capitale, Martelli will reveal Opportunities. Martelli is focused on undermining a rising senator in the state of Lemoyne that is trying to stop Bronte’s criminal operations, and Opportunities are just jobs where you and your friends will interfere and weaken the politician’s position.
There are various approaches to each Opportunity, and you can discover new approaches by eavesdropping on conversations or finding important new targets. There will be three Opportunities in total. Only one of them will be available on July 13 at launch, and the other two will be released at a later date.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is available now on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia.
