Red Dead Redemption

Unlock Details

This one is all about taming three specific horses, and it is easier than it sounds once you get the hang of it. Use your lasso to catch the horse, then mount it and balance with the left stick until it settles down. The Kentucky Saddler is usually handled during the story or found at MacFarlane’s Ranch, the American Standardbred can be spotted in the Great Plains with its sleek dark coat, and the Hungarian Half-bred shows up in Mexico around Diez Coronas. The only tricky part is staying balanced, so do not overcorrect your movement and just react smoothly to the horse’s shifts. Once you break all three, the trophy will pop and you will have some of the best horses in the game ready to go.

This is one of the first bounty trophies you can grab, and it is very straightforward once you know what to do. Pick up a bounty poster, track down the target, clear out any enemies around them, then switch to your lasso and hogtie the target instead of killing them. After that, call your horse, place them on the back, and bring them in alive to complete the mission. The only real danger is enemies chasing you on the way back, so either ride fast or deal with them quickly before they cause problems. Bringing targets in alive also pays more, so this is a good habit to build early while you work toward 100 percent.

This one is exactly what it sounds like, and yeah, it is a bit messed up, but it is also very easy to set up. Grab your lasso, hogtie any woman you find, then take her to a set of train tracks and wait for a train to pass through. If you want to avoid losing honor, wear a bandana or use one of the random encounters where the woman turns out to be part of a trap. The only thing to watch here is timing, so check your map to track the train’s location and place her on the tracks ahead of it. Once the train hits, the trophy pops and your outlaw reputation is officially questionable.

This one is simple but tied to story progression, so do not worry if you cannot get it right away. You just need to buy one rare weapon from a gunsmith, which become available later in Blackwater and Escalera. These weapons cost more than usual, so having some money saved up helps, but you only need one for the trophy. Pick whichever you like or can afford first, since there is no difference for unlocking it. Think of this as a nice excuse to upgrade your arsenal while working toward 100 percent.

This is best saved for late game since it requires building up a massive bounty, and things can get chaotic fast. First, make sure you have a Pardon Letter saved, then head to a busy town like Blackwater and start causing trouble until your bounty reaches over 5000. Lawmen will keep coming, so use cover, manage your ammo, and heal when needed to stay alive during the chaos. Once you hit the required bounty, leave the area and head to a telegraph office while avoiding capture, then use your Pardon Letter to clear everything at once. It is a bit of a rampage setup, but if you stay prepared, this becomes one of the most fun trophies to pull off.

This is one of the easiest trophies in the game and a nice little reward for upgrading your look. Head to Thieves’ Landing and visit the tailor, then purchase the Elegant Suit for a small price. After buying it, open your inventory and equip it to trigger the trophy. As a bonus, this outfit lets you cheat at poker, so it is actually useful if you are working on gambling trophies as well.

Unlock Details

This one pairs perfectly with building a high bounty, so it is best done alongside your chaos run. First, make sure you have broken the Hungarian Half-bred horse and can summon it when needed. Start causing trouble until the US Marshals are sent after you, then switch to the Hungarian Half-bred if your horse changes due to low honor. Once they are actively searching for you, ride carefully and stay just outside their detection zone until the wanted level disappears. It is more about patience than speed here, so do not panic and just keep your distance until you successfully evade them.

The easiest way to get this done is during the “Lucky in Love” mission in Mexico, where the game basically hands you a winning setup if you play it right. Let one of the opponents start raising, then keep matching their bets without going too aggressive, which usually tricks them into going all in. Once the pot goes over 2000 chips, just win the hand and the trophy pops, and you can even replay the mission if you mess it up. If you miss that opportunity, head to Blackwater where the stakes are higher, save before sitting down, and play it slow to build the pot before going all in. Poker here is more about patience than skill, so do not rush your bets and let the AI make the mistakes for you.

This will come naturally as long as you stick to one playstyle, so do not try to balance both sides. Your Fame increases automatically through missions and activities, so you only need to focus on pushing your Honor either all the way up or all the way down. If you want good honor, help strangers and avoid unnecessary crimes, and if you want bad honor, cause chaos and ignore consequences. The key is consistency, since mixing actions will slow your progress. Pick a side early and commit to it, and you will reach the requirement without much extra effort.

This one is straightforward but feels a little wild when you realize what you are doing. Head to the Great Plains where buffalo spawn in large herds, then start taking them down until none remain. Using a rifle and Dead Eye makes this much easier since you can line up multiple kills before they scatter. Once they start running, it becomes harder to track them, so try to take out as many as possible early. If you miss some, leave the area and come back to reset the spawns. Keep going until the last one drops and the trophy will unlock.

This one is all about playing smart and not getting greedy, because one bad call can ruin the whole run. You need to finish a full game of Liar’s Dice without losing a single die, so always play it safe and trust your reads more than your instincts. If a bid sounds too high, call the bluff, but do not overdo it since the AI can surprise you. Playing at a table with fewer opponents makes this much easier, since there are fewer dice in play and less chaos overall. Save before you start so you can reload if things go south, and once you get a good rhythm, this becomes more about patience than luck.

Unlock Details

This is just the longer version of the previous trophy, and it will take some time since you need to complete 15 Stranger tasks. You will naturally find most of these while progressing through the story and exploring new areas, but some require you to return later or advance further before they continue. If you ever get stuck, check your journal for hints on what to do next, since the game usually points you in the right direction. Stay consistent with picking these up as you play instead of saving them all for later, and you will avoid a long cleanup grind at the end.

Unlock Details

This is the only missable trophy, but it is very manageable if you stay aware of it early. You need to complete 20 story missions without switching horses, so once you get your main horse, stick with it no matter what. Do not use horse deeds, avoid hitching manually, and most importantly do not let your horse die, or you will have to start over. If something goes wrong, just reload a save to keep your progress intact. The game gives you plenty of missions to work with, so as long as you stay consistent and treat your horse like your best friend, you will get this without much trouble.

Unlock Details

This one will come naturally early on, so there is nothing to stress about here. Stranger missions appear as question marks on the map, and all you need to do is complete one of them to unlock the trophy. As you explore, you will run into these pretty often, so just stop and help out when you see one nearby. Think of this as your introduction to side content, and once you start doing them, you will see how they tie into the world and even future trophies.

Unlock Details

This one comes down to feel and a bit of trial and error, but it is easier than it sounds once you get the rhythm down. You need to land a ringer, which means getting the horseshoe perfectly around the pole in the center. Focus on your throw power and try to use your previous throws as a reference point to adjust your aim. Do not worry about winning the game since only the ringer matters here. After a few attempts you will start to dial in the distance, and once it clicks, you will land one naturally.
