Over and above the freebies, Rockstar has pledged to return the Undead Overrun mode to its original settings. Provided you haven't already traded in your Red Dead Redemption copy, or shelved it for the busy release season ahead, the one-two combo of a free DLC pack and Undead Overrun update should be ample motivation to mount up and partake in some old timey multiplayer.
