9 Secret Video Game Areas You Weren't Meant To Find (Commenter's Edition)

2. Mexico - Red Dead Redemption 2

Centre of so many discussions around the idea of Red Dead Redemption being re-released using Red Dead 2's more advanced tech, you'll likely already know the entirety of the first game's map is sitting to the south-west of the second game.

However, whilst it's cool to visit this place, find the ghostly easter eggs and rekindle all those 2010 memories, you might want to go one further and hop into Mexico as well.

Whilst it doesn't come with that awesome Jose Gonzalez track, Far Away, commenter RareLibra points out you can still get to Mexico, and super easily.

First you have to have finished the game to unlock the bottom-left of the map, then all you need to do is take a horse directly over the San Luis river.

Now, you must leave leave from a VERY specific spot to the West of New Austin, right where the "Sea of Coronado" text is on the map. Here you'll be able to cross the river without drowning or getting turned back, but once you're across... that's you free to explore for as long as you like.

Red Dead 2's Mexico is pretty empty, but you can eventually make it to El Presidio - cite of many a gunfight in the original game, and thankfully rendered anew in the new engine.
