Rockstar has unveiled the upcoming DLC for Red Dead Redemption.

Four separate packs are incoming with the first, The Legends and Killers Pack, due next month. It will add more multiplayer locations and characters, including some familiar faces from Red Dead Revolver.

The Liars and Cheats Pack adds new competitive modes as well as multiplayer mini-games (like poker) while the Free Roam adds new challenges and anti-griefing measures.

The final batch of DLC, The Undead Nightmare Pack adds a new paranormal theme in a brand new single player adventure.

All packs will set you back 800 MS Points on LIVE ($9.99 USD on PSN), except the Free Roam Pack which is yet to be priced.
