However, many casual players tend to miss certain RDR2 side quests and activities, so it's important to know where to go to complete optional activities in the g

Sea of Coronado- Players will find this hideout at the most southwest portion of the map they can go. Typically the hideout will spawn right on the banks of the sea, and enemies will usually appear on a ridge above the pla

Born in 1877, Abigail Roberts turned into a prostitute before joining the gang. Back in days, she grew up as an orphan, or according to Rockstar's official description, 'Scraping out a living in dive bars and brothels in the West.' Maybe that's why she felt connected to John, the most above all the rest of the memb

Colter- In the far north of the Ambarino region of the map, players will usually find this hideout right in between Spider Grove and Cairn Lake. Since this is the far north, players will want to bring cold weather clothes with t

Just north of Gaptooth Ridge and west of Tumbleweed, players can find the legendary cougar. The cougar will not spawn until players have tracked its several discarded leftovers. Once it has spawned, be on the lookout as the cougar is the hardest of the legendary creatures to hit outside of using dead-eye. Due to it being so incredibly fast, players may want to take a powerful weapon that is better for close combat.

White Pronghorn - New Au

Committing a crime is not an outside area for young Arthur Morgan. He was born in 1863 in a family of an outlaw, and he lost his mother during the labor. His father, Lyle, was once arrested for theft in 1874 but died at some point later. Although the two had a turbulent father-and-son relationship, Arthur still kept a picture of him next to his resting bed and wore his

Ewing Basin- This is another location in the Grizzlies West area of the map. Players will typically find this one if they ride due west from the words "Mount Hagen" on the map but before the railroad tra

Just south of Mattock Pond players can find the legendary fox. Much like the coyote, the fox requires a stealthy approach as it is quickly and easily spooked. Quick and clean shots while sneaking through the bushes will give Arthur the best opportunity to down this majestic creature.

Legendary Bull Gator - Lem

Mexican revolutionary Javier Escuella was born in Nuevo Paraíso and grew up surrounded by alcohol. His hatred for the government's corrupt system developed when little Javier witnessed his own uncle, and four other men were fed to pigs to suggest the villagers demand a fair w

In the center of Bayou NWA, just south of Lagras, along the river players can find the legendary bull gator. Before hunting down this giant white gator, Arthur will have to complete the chapter four story mission Country Pursuits. This is the most difficult of all the legendary animals to kill and will take several shots to be downed. Players should keep a good distance as the bull gator will charge and once Arthur is locked in its jaws, he is unlikely to win the fight. Sniping the head is the best option for hitting vital organs. Be wary in the swamplands and try to stay out of the water.

Big Horn Ram - New Han

By now, it's obvious that Red Dead Redemption 2 is a massive open-world game, and it's more than just " Grand Theft Auto with a horse." Although many players have complained about how slow it takes to travel from one place to another with a horse, the game's graphics are purely mesmerizing, and it captures the Old West's ruthless wo

Solomon's Folly- Players will need to ride south from Tumbleweed and then go southwest from Benedict point in order to find this hideout on their map. If players hit the river then they have probably gone too

Located in Grizzlies East, Ambarino, just northwest of O'Creagh's Run, this bear is likely the first legendary animal that players meet as he is part of a quest in the earliest stages of the game in Chapter Two. Players can travel with Hosea to this area in search of the creature. After the pair barely dodge being killed by the beast, Hosea admits that he's done with this kind of life and wanders back to camp, but offers to Arthur that he can finish the job and kill it if he so chooses. Likely under-equipped to handle the beast, players can leave and return later to the site to finish the job.

Legendary Wolf - Amba

East of Bacchus Station, just across the Ambarino border, players can find this white elk. The elk will require a stealthy approach, likely with a bit of help from the tracking view to find. As it is not in a snowy location, the elk is fairly easy to spot. Aiming for the vital spots of the elk will take it down quickly in a few shots.

Albino Beaver - Lem

The problem with gang hideouts is that they don't always spawn during every session or even the exact same location. There is a general area that each one appears in though, so the trick is to ride around the general area that the hideout appears in to see if it's there. If not, players should move on to the next location that they haven't checked out yet or they can also restart the indie Game Music to see if it shows up. Odds are if players run into another group of players in the area of a hideout it means that it has already been cleared out, and the player should try another locat
