Go white flash as a black market pirate in Moonshiners, the latest Frontier Pursuit Red Dead Online, Open your own moonshining business with a notorious distillery and run it on the new Shack property.
Moonshining takes your trader skills to the next level and gives you your first deal outside of the warehouse. Not only do they have to procure ingredients and manufacture the goods, they also have to know the requirements of the market and adapt their shipments to the taste of the buyers. In this sense, Moonshining requires that you have cut your teeth as a trader and have reached at least rank 5 or completed a Trader Sell mission. Once that is achieved, Cripps will connect you with Maggie Fike at the Emerald Ranch, an old hand in the pirated shop that will help you get your upswing going.
In order to do a proper gloss trade – and not around Lemoyne Raiders’ backwoods – you need a property. Get in touch with Maggie to buy one of five moonlight huts where you will run your business. Once you’ve found your cook and equipment, Maggie will maintain the front of the upstairs homestead while the art of distillation takes place on the ground floor. The basement has room for optional extensions, including a bar, space for a band, and a dance floor, with additional upgrades for your moonlight gear.
A new set of story missions await you on your trading trip, which you can record on your own or with your posse, as Maggie Fike will help you build your business and take a little revenge yourself. Each mission brings you benefits to drive your business by eliminating rivals, learning new recipes, and building a solid customer base. Expand your emerging business by developing different blends and spreading them across the five states. You can also serve customers directly while entertaining friends by expanding your own bar.
Like all Specialist Roles, the Moonshiner has a unique development path that unlocks bespoke clothing and accessories, equipment upgrades to improve business, new weapons like the Flammable Moonshine Jug and a unique decorative design for the Sawed-Off Shotgun, the new horse breeds and more.

Today’s Red Dead Online update also includes new items of clothing, including bandoliers and corsets (with more items that will be available in the coming weeks), a powerful new weapon in the Navy Revolver, and other gameplay improvements and improvements we continue to develop and refine the game world. Today’s update includes the following improvements:
- The ability to swap weapons quickly in the heat of the moment – simply assign a “quick selection” firearm in the weapon wheel and then tap LB during the game to quickly switch between it and your currently equipped weapon (you can change your weapon with holster, double tap on LB or by selecting Unarmed in the Weapon Wheel)
- Realign skill cards on certain cards and limit the use of tonic to ensure a level playing field for all players
- Accessibility when fishing has been improved so players can catch a key while holding the button down instead of circling the analog stick
- Increased stability for horses, which reduces the likelihood that your horse will fall off after a collision, and that it will get up faster after a fall or resuscitation
We’ve also added the ability to spawn directly in your camp and made improvements to address the issue that players had when building their camps. We will continue to work on solving these problems.
