The clear prototype for Red Dead Online was the multiplayer half of Grand Theft Auto 5, GTA Online. This mode has managed to keep GTA 5 fresh and popular since its release way back in 2013, and now the two games are crossing over for the first time, giving GTA Online players the chance to earn a special weapon, Lowry’s Revolver, in Red Dead Online.

How to Get Lowry’s Revolver in Red Dead Online
Lowry’s Revolver is a Red Dead weapon with blood stains and tally marks along the barrel, and it can only be unlocked for use in Red Dead Online by playing GTA Online. In GTAO it exists as the Navy Revolver, which is found in the hands of a notorious serial killer, and to unlock it players will first need to complete a GTA Online mission.
The Serial Killer Mystery mission was added as part of GTA Online’s Diamond Casino update, and its in-game summary is as follows: “A vicious serial killer is roaming the countryside, carrying out bloody murders with an antique Navy Revolver. Scour Blaine County for clues and bring this wicked killer to justice to claim their unique weapon for your own collection.” Once players have completed this mission, they’ll be rewarded with the Navy Revolver in GTA Online.
Next, GTA Online players will need to complete the Navy Revolver challenge, which involves getting 50 kills with the gun. This will net the player with $250,000 and unlock the revolver in Red Dead Online, though some additional steps are required to access it.
To access the revolver in Red Dead Online, players will need to have a Rockstar Social Club membership attached to both games. They must then find the revolver in RDO, and its location is in the cellar of a building southwest of Valentine, south of the A and L on the Red Dead map.
Red Dead Online is available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
