Red Dead Redemption 2 Has a Hidden Mission Ending. Six Years Later. Because of Course It Does.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Alternate Mission Ending Discovered in Strawberry

Strawberry’s Got Secrets

A player revisiting Red Dead Redemption 2 has stumbled onto something amazing: an alternate ending to a mission in Strawberry. No mods. No hacks. Just Rockstar being sneaky again.

Apparently, if you make a very specific decision during one of the side quests, the whole outcome shifts. Which is impressive, considering most of us spent Strawberry robbing stores and antagonizing lawmen.

What Actually Changes?

Without spoiling everything:

• You get different dialogue

• The fate of an NPC changes

• Arthur even reflects on the event later

It’s not game-changing, but it’s definitely brain-tingling. Especially if you’re a lore nerd or one of those folks who insists on 100% completion... without using a guide.

This Is Why Rockstar Still Owns the West

Even now, years later, the game is coughing up secrets like it’s ashamed of how deep it is. Rockstar didn’t just build a game—they built a digital haunted house where you always find something new behind the bookshelf.

Between this and Tempest Rim, it’s clear: they either planned for everything, or they’ve accidentally made the most explorable mess in gaming history.
