Red Dead Redemption 2 players who want to build up a quick bankroll can use all of these activities to quickly become wealthy in the game without doing too much work.
Red Dead Redemption 2 features a massive open-world and players who want to take full advantage of all of its activities will need to establish a bit of a bankroll to fund their adventures in the wild west. Although there is an infinite money glitch, players who want to take a less shady approach still have plenty of options when it comes to collecting an income.
As gamers might expect from a Rockstar title, Red Dead Redemption 2 offers a ton of different paths to wealth. Players who want to make money fast should probably consider taking advantage of all of the options and then quickly watch the dollars start to add up. We’ve put together a list of the most effective (and easy) ways to make money, so be sure to review these before heading into the action.
From poker to dominoes, there are a lot of minigame paths to wealth in Red Dead Redemption 2 for players who are willing to put in a little practice and put some money on the line. There is a lot of money to be gained from the competitive showdowns, so definitely don’t overlook this opportunity to cash in.
Like in most RPGs, selling off extra loot from enemies or quest rewards is a great steady source of income. RDR2 is full of these items and players who prefer this path to wealth can spend some extra time hunting down legendary animals or catching fish. These items can sell for a pretty profit and the money starts to add up quickly.
Although bounties may be a pain when they are out on you, they are a great source of income when they are out on someone else. Players should regularly take a trip to the Sheriff’s office to collect any new bounty posters can then use the map to find and complete the tasks. This is a bit of a distraction from the game’s main path, but it’s a great source of income if that is your goal.
The wild west is full of mysteries and hidden wealth that is up for grabs if the player can track it down. Be sure to check out our other treasure map guides to find all of treasure chests that have been identified in the game so far.
Although this option has the potential to cause more harm than good, it is probably the most popular path to wealth in the game. The danger here is getting a bounty out on your own head which will cost you money or time and energy to get rid of. If that can be avoided with well planned heists and costume changes, then there are plenty of profitable targets to be fleeced.
That should be plenty to get a serious bankroll started. Just be careful to stay out of trouble and avoid leaving witnesses that could lead to bounties if you are involved in any illegal operations. Be sure to check back for more news, updates, and guides!
