A dedicated Red Dead Redemption 2 streamer manages to beat Rockstar’s iconic Western title without dying after multiple attempts.
Redditor HazardCM noticed that Black Belle’s house, as seen in her Red Dead Redemption 2 Stranger mission, features John Marston’s classic hat from the original game. It’s well-hidden as part of the set dressing, but a close look at the item confirms that it’s unmistakably John Marston’s hat. According to players in the thread, players can’t take the hat and wear it for themselves, which is a shame. It was generally agreed that this probably is a homage, given the hat doesn’t feature anywhere else in Red Dead Redemption 2.
Black Belle’s House in RDR2 Features John Marston’s Hat
It isn’t the only instance of a character’s hat popping up elsewhere around the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. Another user in the thread pointed out that the general store in Valentine also features Arthur Morgan’s hat on the wall, although this could just be a coincidence or a reuse of the model. It’s not clear if any other characters’ hats pop up elsewhere in the game, but knowing Rockstar, it could certainly be the case.
With Rockstar busy with the development of Grand Theft Auto 6, news of a potential sequel to Red Dead Redemption 2 is likely some time away yet. Given the success of the most recent game in the series, it’s unfathomable to think that it won’t happen at this point, but Rockstar has never been shy of taking the time it needs to get things right. It’s the best way to approach things, especially when the studio is renowned for its incredible attention to detail. These things don’t happen overnight.
