Summary

  • One player believes they have found the highest point in Red Dead Redemption 2's expansive map, showcasing the game's attention to detail.
  • The location of the highest point is near where Chapter 1 takes place, providing players with a reason to revisit the area and experience the breathtaking view.
  • While fans speculate about a potential Red Dead Redemption 3, the focus remains on the meticulous development and exploration opportunities of the current game.

One Red Dead Redemption 2 player online believes they may have found the highest point in the game's entire map. Red Dead Redemption 2's map is one of the most expansive and detailed in gaming, and it's interesting to see even more details uncovered.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a game that encourages exploration, taking players across the Wild West in an adventure that spans multiple biomes. From the snowy mountains to the desert of New Austin, the game ensures that players see it all throughout their entire playthrough. However, of all the mountains and hills, there has to be one that towers above the rest - and this player believes they've found it once and for all.

The video, posted by Redditor Sufficient_Dare9273, shows the snowy mountains in the northern area of the Red Dead Redemption 2 map. The user even shares the exact location, residing just west of the Spider Gorge map marker before jumping off the cliff to their doom. At first glance, it's hard to disagree that this is almost certainly the highest point of Red Dead Redemption 2's map, with the spot looking down over everything the game has to offer. Red Dead Redemption 2 is already well-established as being one of the best-looking games of all time, and views like this only highlight how beautiful it can look, even over five years since its release.

Players wanting to see the view for themselves will have to backtrack to where the game begins. The peak is located near where Chapter 1 takes place, where Dutch and his gang fight the bitter cold while on the run from the law. Red Dead Redemption 2's story doesn't really provide a real reason to return until deep into the Epilogue, but with the discovery of the game's highest point, it may be worth a revisit just to see the view.

While players continue to uncover the secrets of Red Dead Redemption 2's vast map, some are already thinking ahead to the future of a potential Red Dead Redemption 3. Rockstar Games is yet to confirm the existence of such a title with work continuing on Grand Theft Auto 6, although that hasn't stopped fans from sharing their theories about an upcoming sequel. Regardless of what happens, hopefully, the attention to detail that has made Red Dead Redemption 2's map such a joy to explore over five years later is at the forefront of development.

America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed. After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him. From the creators of Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America at the dawn of the modern age.
