Getting the "Warhorse" Mount on Xbox 360

Last Updated: October 3, 2024

Question: How do I redeem my R* Code for the "Warhorse" on Xbox 360?

Answer: On early runs of the Pre-order Promo Card, there was a misprint for what button you must press when you are in the Downloadable Content menu for Red Dead Redemption.

Enter the Downloadable Content screen from the Main Menu. After this you will need to press the "Y" button (not "X" as it is printed on card) to open up a "Blade" where you will be able to input and redeem your code for unlocking the Warhorse. If the code was successfully redeemed, you will see this onscreen message:

"Your R* Code was successfully validated and content was unlocked!"

The unlocked content will also be listed under the heading "Downloadable Content Installed".

To see and use the Warhorse Mount item in-game, make sure to press the "Back" button while in-game and select the "Deed" for the Warhorse. You will see a confirmation message after doing so, and when you "whistle" for your Horse, it will now be the Warhorse.  Please note, that you may need to complete the "Political Realities in Armadillo" Mission to learn about calling your horse before you will be able to use this ability.
