Ever since Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 released, fans have been on a constant search to dig out everything they can find in the game in an effort to piece together its myriad of mysteries.

When the game was finally released on PC, dedicated fans had the opportunity to root through the game's files to get their hands on new information in between finding funny things to do with Arthur's character model.

But one discovery posted on the Red Dead Redemption subreddit by user DaniMoz has quickly attracted the attention of fans: a character model for Princess Isabeau Katharina Zinsmeister.

In case you don't know who this is, this Luxembourgian royal was kidnapped 15 years prior to the games events during a trip to the US. Her missing poster can be found in Van Horn in addition to a chest with her initials visible at the fence there too.

The character model discovered by the hacker - which is playable through mods - bears a striking resemblance to her description in terms of age and birthmarks mentioned in the poster.

Was the princess a remnant from a cut side mission abandoned in the game files, or is she still out there somewhere?
