After dumping dozens of hours into Red Dead Redemntion 2’s main story and subsequent epilogues, it’d be understandable if you zoned out or skipped the end credits sequence – but seeing the names of all the folks who worked so hard on it isn’t the only thing you may have missed out on. Even those of you who watched probably haven’t caught every little detail – but we’ve done our best to round them all up for you. Here’s everything you may have missed during Red Dead 2’s end credits. Needless to say, spoilers abound from this point on – don’t say we didn’t warn you!

We’re gonna jump around a bit, because a lot of the interstitial vignettes are simply scenes from around the world, like the rider crossing Owanjila Dam, a variety of animals out in the wilderness, or trains rolling across Bard’s Crossing Bridge or through the forest outside Strawberry.

We also get some really nice glimpses of what becomes of the Van der Linde gang after the story ends – most prominently we see John Marston and Abigail celebrating their wedding with Uncle and Jack and Sadie and Charles. These two eventually take their leave of the Marstons, Charles allegedly up to Canada to start a new life, and while we don’t know exactly where Sadie headed off to once her injuries from the confrontation with Micah had healed, she’d mentioned to John maybe living somewhere in South America.

As for the other surviving members of the gang, not only do we see them in the credits, but you can visit several of them yourself after returning to play! Mary-Beth is shown writing behind a desk, and if John runs into her at the train station in Valentine, you’ll learn that she’s become a somewhat successful author of tawdry romance novels. Pearson, seen during the credits looking wistfully at a photograph of the gang, now runs the general store in Rhodes – though he won’t hook you up with any discounts, unfortunately. Tilly is shown walking through a park in St Denis with her husband and their child, and if you happen across her waiting for a streetcar there, she’ll take your address to send letters. We’re shown Arthur’s grave, in the mountains overlooking the Cumberland Forest, and his old flame Mary Linton come to pay her respects, and Rains Fall surveying the land as an eagle flies overhead closes out the credits. You also get a look at Archie and Edith Downes – they’re the son and widow of the debtor that you may or may not have helped as Arthur (the one Arthur blamed for his tuberculosis). You can find a newspaper clipping about their successful golf course they started in California if you completed the Do Not Seek Absolution missions before finishing chapter six.

The real meat of these vignettes, however, starts around four minutes into the credits, when we Edgar Ross – formerly of the Pinkerton Detective Agency, now with the newly-formed Bureau of Investigation – and his partner Archer Fordham tracking down John after his confrontation with Micah on Mount Hagen. We see them pass through Valentine, talking to the bartender and patrons of Smithfield’s, likely asking about the fight that took place when John and Sadie came to town during the mission Gainful Employment, and again stopping a carriage outside of Rhodes, likely inquiring about the shootout that occurred in A Quick Favor for an Old Friend. Finally, they’re seen overlooking the ranch at Beecher’s Hope, where John’s teaching Jack how to care for his horse. We don’t see the moment when they confront John and force him into service to kick off the events of Red Dead 1, though we all know how that turns out.

For my money, though, the best bit of the credits is actually when they stop rolling and gameplay resumes. We see John and Abigail bantering about life in Beecher’s Hope, and while that itself is a fun little moment, it took me a minute to realize that they’re actually standing overlooking their home from the same spot that they’re buried in at the end of the original. It’s a bittersweet moment that, for me, was especially poignant after switching to John for the epilogues and post-game exploration.

Hopefully, this helps solidify the ending of Red Dead 2 for you. For more, why not check out how we think it changes the way we look at the original, or six things we’d like GTA 6 to learn from Red Dead 2.
