Fans Create ‘Undead Nightmare II’ Mod For ‘Red Dead Redemption II’
Rockstar hasn’t exactly been making friends lately with some of its decisions, including Red Dead Redemption fans. The non-canon (but still very awesome) Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare gave fans of westerns and zombies something to cheer about when it was released back in 2010, and we’ve been waiting for something like it to show up in Red Dead Redemption II, which sadly hasn’t been getting much in terms of post-launch content.
So, leave it to the fans once again to take matters into their own hands. Created by Dick Hertz and Eki, Undead Nightmare II – Origins is a fan mod that throws in a ton of new content. Plague has struck New Austin, causing the dead to rise from their graves and wreak havoc among the already savaged lands. It’s up to you to put the dead back in the ground.
Not only have certain towns been overhauled to feature zombie hordes and civilians fighting them off, you have roaming hordes of zombies in the wilderness in search of food (which includes the small time ranchers), you also have new ambient music (perfect for the walking dead), new outfits and more. You even have an appearance by the undead John Marston!
There are a few prerequisites for this mod to get it going, but you can read up on all of that from the Nexus Mods page.
Thanks to PCGamer for the heads up.

Violent Party Game Collection ‘Machine Party’ Now Available [Trailer]
Buckshot Roulette creator Mike Klubnika and co-developer GDeavid’s “friendslop” collection of violent party games in Machine Party is out now on Steam, where you and your friends can finally compete in glorious gory fun. As an added incentive, Machine Party is available with a limited-time 15% launch discount until August 13.
Gather 2 to 4 friends, strap in, and prove your life is worth more than theirs in this collection of borderline illegal and extraordinarily violent party games. Featurng an industrial soundtrack composed by Alex Peipman, Machine Party takes classic party game formats and gives them deadly twists, turning friendly competition into something far less friendly, but always hilarious. Across 15 unique minigames set within the Klubnika universe, players will jump between split-second reflex challenges, calculated decision-making, and social situations where trust doesn’t last long and betrayal is always an option.
Each minigame throws players into increasingly absurd and dangerous challenges where cooperation, competition, and betrayal are all viable strategies. No matter how you play, or how devious you are at screwing over your friends, survival is never guaranteed. For more absurdity, you’re able to customize your test subject with a variety of cosmetics.
