Find out all you need to know about the Red Dead Online Battle Royale mode Make it Count in our in-depth guide. Following our tips and tricks, you’ll be making it count in no time.
Red Dead Online is now live for early adopters of Red Dead Redemption 2. It turns out that there is a Red Dead Online battle royale mode. Dubbed Red Dead Online Make it Count, this mode has us face off against other players in a continually shrinking map area until just one player is left standing. It’s smaller than other battle royale modes, but it has the same basic principles.
There are two battle royale modes in Red Dead Online. One of them only allows players to equip and use Throwing Knives, while the other is limited to Bow and Arrows only. You can play either mode of Make it Count in 16 or 32-player variants, and can access them through online playlists. There are three known locations for Make it Count: Tall Trees, Stillwater Creek, and Strawberry.
In each of the locations, the map will start out large and gradually shrink in on itself. It will shrink every minute in the ten-minute matches, so you’ll be forced to stay on your toes. Unlike other modes in Red Dead Online, you won’t appear on the mini-map as a red dot for most of Make it Count.
In both the Throwing Knives and Bow and Arrows variants of the Red Dead Online battle royale mode, each weapon will count as a one-hit kill. Once you have killed an opponent, you will appear on the mini-map as a red dot, letting everyone know your exact location.
Staying alive and finding your opponents won’t be easy, but that’s where we come in.
