Taking aim at the red team from
the rooftops of Blackwater as Agent Ross in the new Stronghold
Competitive Multiplayer Mode - part of the new Liars and Cheats Pack
downloadable content for Red Dead Redemption.
The new Stronghold Mode - part of the upcoming Liars and Cheats Pack
for Red Dead Redemption - is a take on the popular "Attack &
Defend" multiplayer gameplay variation, and features some of the most
exciting and strategic gameplay of any of Red Dead Redemption's diverse Competitive Multiplayer modes.
The red team gains ownership of a control point on the outskirts of Blackwater.
Supporting up to 16 players on any one of four maps [Blackwater,
Escalera, Fort Mercer & Thieves Landing], Stronghold Mode begins
with one team on the attacking side. They are given a shared number of
lives and a time limit to capture a series of control points spread
across the map. The other team is classified as the defending side,
tasked with maintaining ownership of those control points for as long as
possible.
Cracking the Gunsmith Safe while the Red Team bears down on their position.
Once the attacking team has either captured all the control points,
run out of time or lost all their lives - the teams switch sides, with
the attackers becoming the defenders, and vice versa. Whichever team
team captures the most points in the shortest amount of time wins the
match. On certain maps, cracking safes in Stronghold Mode gives players
access to the all-new devastatingly destructive Explosive Rifle.
Stronghold Mode also has its own related challenges that award players
with bonus XP and custom multiplayer titles.
Opposing teams vie for control.

new content that's featured in the Liars and Cheats Pack for Red Dead
Redemption.
