Now that Red Dead Online is finally getting updates again, players have been enjoying working through the new content. The most recent update added some new things for players to do, but some are now discovering some secret additions as well. For the most part, these additions aren’t anything substantial, but they do serve as nice Easter eggs for players to discover.
Red Dead Online players went through a bit of a dry spell where the game was largely neglected, but thankfully that drought is over. This newest update added a new mission and a new hardcore series mode, but apparently that isn’t all that was thrown in there.
A new ghostly animal appears in Red Dead Online, as players now have the ability to summon Ghost Buck. This is mostly just for visuals, as it doesn’t appear that Ghost Buck has any effects that modify the game, but he will wander around the player’s campfire for a minute or two when summoned.
In order to summon Ghost Buck, players will need to be at a campfire and burn Harrietum Officinalis. This must be done at night, as the option won’t be available during the day time. Given that this ritual is intended to summon a ghost, this makes a lot of sense. It doesn’t appear that players need to have transformed into a Buck in Red Dead Online to do this, but there’s no concrete confirmation of this just yet. This ritual wasn’t covered by Rockstar Games in the patch notes for the most recent update, so it was either a bug or it was intended to be a secret. More likely than not, it is leading up to some sort of Red Dead Online Halloween event, as this isn’t the first ghost animal found in the game.
It seems very unlikely that this is a bug, as the steps required are very specific and it doesn’t seem like it could be accidentally coded in. This being an intentional addition also supports the fan theory that ghost animals will play a major role in Red Dead Online‘s upcoming Halloween event. At this point there’s now way to truly tell, but fans should seek out enough Harrietum Officinalis to summon a Ghost Buck of their own.
Unfortunately, he will just wander around the player’s camp site and will disappear shortly thereafter. This means there isn’t any real way to interact with this Legendary Buck yet, but that may change in the future. Players should be on the lookout for more secret changes that may have been added, as there’s no confirmation that this was the only one.
Red Dead Online is available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
