Glitch[]
If the player unlocks the Explosive Rifle and Tomahawk on the Game of the Year edition disc, Red Dead Redemption with Undead Nightmare DLC digital download or 1.2 game update, the Explosive Rifle Mastery Challenge and Tomahawk Mastery Challenge may not unlock for the player, although they obtain both weapons. To avoid this, the player should simply play on an Undead Nightmare disc or digital download without updating it to the 1.2 game update.
