New Red Dead: Redemption Undead Nightmare trailer pleases our braaaaaains with zombie bears

Red Dead’s hunting system was one of our favourite things about Rockstar’s incredi Western. From armadillos to elk, there was nary an animal in the frontier we feared. Of course, last time we braved Redemption’s epic plains, they weren’t sporting bloody zombie grizzlies. Below, you’ll see the new trailer for the game’s upcoming Undead Nightmare DLC. Warning: The following footage may contain old timey, undead Americans.

Pah, you call that a zombie? This is a zombie…

If you’re still reading, that means you’ve braved our undead furry friend silently judging you with his rotting eyes. Good for you. Undead Nightmare will be a primarily single-player expansion, with new missions and challenges set in a non-canon storyline where John Marston is trying to find a cure for a virus that has swept the Old West. Oh, and totally turned everyone into shuffling, brain-biters in the process.

The pack will also include zombie skins for use in multiplayer, while also adding the aforementionedundead bears and other mythical creatures. Frankly, if you’re not excited about this, we suspect you’re dead inside. And possibly like to chew on folk’s frontal lobes in your downtime.
