Locate all the legendary animals in Red Dead Redemption 2

A guide to hunt the rarest creatures of the Rockstar game.

Equip Arthur Morgan with the best weapons, horses and consumables are part of the day-to-day life of Red Dead Redemption 2, but the talismans play a key role as well. And to gain your powers, you must first hunt down the rarest creatures of the Wild West. In this guide, we reveal the location of all the legendary animals of Red Dead Redemption 2, including some clues to get out of the race.

As you know, normally when hunting animals in RDR 2 you must take into account two factors: one, the physical state of the animal; and two, and the kind of death you give him. A clean head shot almost always guarantees better skin and flesh. But when you go for legendary animals, forget about all that. Equip yourself with powerful weapons and don”t be afraid to fill your prey”s body with shrapnel, since killing it is the absolute priority and it doesn”t have much to do with the rewards you really want to get from them.

In 3D Games we indicate the whereabouts of each legendary creature. You can see it below, but if you use a small monitor or standard resolution we recommend that you download it to ”zoom”. Once you know where your prey is, head over there in the game. You will notice that the digital map is updated to indicate that you are in the territory of a legendary animal. At that time, use the Eagle Eye mode to find the trail, and follow the clue until you find three types of evidence. When you hit all three, the creature will appear to challenge you.

In full combat, you can activate Dead Eye at level 4 to highlight the weak areas of your opponent (normally, we talk about the heart, lungs or brain). There is only one legendary animal of each species, so remember to skin it when you kill them. Do you want to go well prepared?
