Are you playing Red Dead Redemption on PlayStation 4 or Nintendo Switch and need a small nest egg to shop at the various merchants? No problem, because in this guide we will explain what are the main sources of money in the Rockstar Games title.
Hunting
The main method of earning money in Red Dead Redemption is definitely to go hunting. By eliminating enemies with weapons that don’t damage their fur (if you use a shotgun on a rabbit, for example, it will explode leaving you nothing to loot) you can get close to the animal’s carcass to interact: in this way, John Marston will skin it , obtaining precious materials that you can then resell to the highest bidder. If you want to maximize your profits, we suggest you go to the area of the map called Tall Treeswhich shouldn’t be that hard to come across orsi grizzlywhose fur is truly precious.
Sizes
The bounties are also quite profitable in Red Dead Redemption. Going on the hunt for wanted people is certainly one of the quickest ways to make money, provided, however, that deliver the outlaws alive. Eliminating the target is certainly easier, but incaprettarlo and deliver it to the nearest sheriff allows you to get double the money as a final reward. Anyone wishing to earn very high figures from bounties must continue in history and arrive at Blackwaterthe town where you can receive up to 600 dollars for a caught criminal.
Mini-games
Another way to inflate John Marston’s wallet in Red Dead Redemption is to participate in the various mini-games. Being successful in some of these activities allows you to obtain more or less important figures, also in relation to the difficulty of the mini-game you are facing. For example, you could risk it in the inevitable knife game or to one game of poker. In any case, however, we suggest that you manually save your progress before starting these activities: in this way you can reload in case of failure.
