Red Dead Redemption 2 is Rockstar’s smash hit sequel to their beloved story about a former outlaw hunting down his old game. What’s more is that RDR2 is also a prequel to the original game, which allows for Rockstar to insert as many tributes and foreshadowing into the new story as they please. Well, boy did they deliver! This time around, you play as Arthur Morgan, the Van der Linde gang lieutenant who witnesses the twilight days of John’s infamous former gang and must make hard choices concerning just who and what he is loyal
Search the area for a fallen tree resting on top of two rocks, forming a kind of bridge. There is a hole inside this tree that you can reach into if you climb on top of it. That’s where the third High Stakes Treasure Map and some treasure can be fo
There are sixteen legendary animals to be found throughout Red Dead Redemption 2 , and luckily, none of them are very hard to find or eliminate. All it takes is acquiring the legendary animal map, riding to the location, and quickly disposing of the animal. It takes maybe ten minutes, and the animals don’t put up much of a challenge. You can then sell their skins (and some of their bodies) to the trapper who pays quite handsomely for the rare items. If that wasn’t all, you can also use their parts to craft trinkets and special garments and outfits. Going after the legendary animals is a no-brai
In a dark reference to an event 16 years into the future, as Agent Ross is leaving with Agent Milton after a tense stand-off with Arthur, Ross makes a snide comment to a three-year-old Jack Marston. “Enjoy your fishing while you still can!” he snarks as he walks away. This ends of being an ironic statement when Jack avenges his father’s unfair end written by Reddeadinsider ambushing Ross while he himself is enjoying post-retirement fish
Hot air balloons are not the only method of flight popular at the end of the 19th Century, it seems. To find this reference to the first Red Dead Redemption , make your way to Big Valley in the northwest corner of West Elizabeth. Go southwest of the stilt shack, and you’ll find this primitive flying machine laying ruined in the trees. It seems that its inventor may still have some way to finessing their plan. As well as being really neat, it’s also one of the points of interest required for 100 percent complet
If you haven’t finished both Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 , then put down this article and either go play them or find a Let’s Play video to watch, because today we’re going to be delving into major spoilers for both games. If you’re ready to dive in, come join us while we talk about 10 tributes RDR2 made to the original Red Dead Redempti
Red Dead Redemption II might actually have one of the easiest fishing mini-games in the entire medium. Traditionally, a fishing mini-game requires quite a bit of effort on the player’s end, but Rockstar decided to go easy on our thumbs. Not that that’s necessarily a bad thing as it means you can catch fish online incredibly fast. Regardless of which fish you catch, you’ll find yourself with more than enough soggy critters to trade into the butcher, earning you a respectable payday from just lounging ab
After running endless chores, Marston is able to gain enough equipment and aid to take the fight to Fort Mercer. By the time you arrive, one of Marston’s allies—the clearly insane Seth—has already made his way inside and is humoring the outlaw gangs ins
In RDR , John famously swam like a rock when he so much as put a toe into deep water. Not even his horses could keep him from sinking. In RDR2 , Rockstar not only has Arthur constantly make fun of John for it, but you will also lose the ability to swim when you play as John in the Epilogue. Talk about commitment to a charac
These next two maps must be found on hermits. The Torn Treasure Map requires you to shoot the hermit who holds it in order to acquire it. There is a home called Manito Glade that is north of Annesburg. An angry old man lives there. Once you get rid of him, search the drawers of his house. You should find the first half of the Torn Treasure
As the Mexican chapter wraps itself up with some dramatic and exciting set-pieces, and with Marston finally getting the better of Bill Williamson—a man he’s been chasing from the jump of the game—yet, all of the excitement sort of glosses over a important fact—why and how has Williamson been hiding with Captain De Santa this whole t
After Beecher’s Hope is finished and John attends to some unfinished business, players can sometimes find Uncle taking a break in the exact same spot on the porch where he perishes in the first game. To add to the heartbreak, he even sits in the same posit
If you’d prefer to live a more honest life, then hunting is always an option. Unfortunately, it doesn’t pay nearly as well as stealing wagons. Hunting animals is not only risky business, but it’s hard work. You have to find an animal, hope that it’s a nice three-star version, and then dispose of it cleanly. Then you have to skin it and ride it back to the butcher’s, all for maybe $10 in pelts and meat. In the time it takes you to hunt four perfect animals for $40 you could have stolen one wagon outside Emerald Ranch. Plus you get your clothes and your horse all messy, and who wants t
