The Red Dead Redemption 2 mod completely changes the ending

Red Dead Redemption 2 has amazed us all with its rich, emotional story about Arthur Morgan, an aging cowboy in the final years of the Wild West. The game has the perfect ending for many, but a new mod has come out that changes it up and gives us more time with the beloved gunslinger. Spoilers for the ending and epilogue of Red Dead Redemption 2 follow.

Arthur’s Redemption is a Red Dead Redemption 2 mod that changes his fate. Instead of succumbing to his tuberculosis, Arthur recovers and lives with the remnants of the gang that survived Dutch and Micah’s betrayal. This gives you more time to explore the open-world game with Arthur rather than dwell on John Marston’s afterword.

Once you leave Dutch and Micah behind, you’ll be on the hunt for one of your old friends who may still be alive. The mod begins in the Beaver Hollow camp and eventually moves back to Clemens Point and beyond.

While players generally enjoy Arthur’s Redemption, there are a few bugs to watch out for. Sometimes unexpected gang members appear and your game may crash as you approach certain locations. However, mod creator “RedPeds” was responsive and constructive with his suggested solutions, and these minor issues don’t seem to have detracted from the overall experience.

RedPeds also recommends playing the epilogue before running this mod because “that’s a really great part of the game.” They confirm: “If you just want to run around with Arthur again, you can use this mod.” You can Arthur’s Download Redemption now from Nexus Mods.
