To begin with, players will need to head to their nearest Post Office and open a letter from Cripps, which explains that there is a business opportunity to be discussed. Players will then need to travel to Armadillo and meet Cripps in order to progress. The exact location of Cripps can be found by opening up “The Birth of a Company” mission on the map. When players arrive they will enter a cut scene where Cripps explains his plans to prepare and trade items that the player hunts and finds. At this point, players will have hopefully taken advantage ofRed Dead Online’s free gold offerand be able to pay the 15 gold bars required to begin the business. Fortunately for PlayStation 4 players, this is not required.

Once this transaction is complete, players can find the Wilderness Outfitters in their camp and it is marked by a money bag on the map. Players then need to speak to the NPC  by the Outfitters and purchase the Butcher’s Table.  From this point on players can be a Trader and gain a canine partner as well as a whole host of other benefits. Not only will this experience excite fans butthe proceeds from purchases inRed Dead Onlineare currently going to coronavirus relief efforts.
