Red Dead Redemption 2: 10 Unsolved Mysteries That Will Freak You Out
Pickled princesses, UFOs and vampires in the streets... it’s all going on in Red Dead Redemption.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a massive game, with one of the most realistic and in-depth open worlds ever created. Though the focus on reality and setting can sometimes be to the detriment of the pick-up-and-play atmosphere of Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto, it all pays off in the end.
Not only does the game serve up one of the most touching and heartfelt narratives in video game history, it offers so much content around the map that even after 100 hours, you’ll barely have scratched the surface.
Yes, there’s the collectibles and the animals and the mini games, but if you want to truly dive into what Red Dead Redemption has to offer, you need to go off the beaten track. Some of these entries come during side quests, but for most, you’ll have to track them down all on your own.
Red Dead keeps a lot of secrets hidden for those who truly explore the game, and some them are guaranteed to give you chills. From the bizarre to the creepy to the downright terrifying, there’s a lot more to uncover in Red Dead Redemption than just Arthur’s story.
10. Marko Dragic’s Robot
Marko Dragic can be encountered in Saint Denis first, asking you to test out his little remote-control boat on the lake in the park. He’s a clear riff on Nikola Tesla, and if you don’t continue his story any further, he’s just another slightly off-kilter Rockstar side character. If you follow the A Bright Bouncing Boy storyline though, it gets very weird, very quickly.
You find him up in the valleys at the top of the map, just as a thunderstorm is brewing. He’ll ask you to help set up his robot, which involves some Frankensteinian lightning rod work. This is all to power his new invention: a living robot.
The experiment will ultimately be an encouraging failure, and Arthur wanders away a little confused about the whole thing.
However, if you return to the lab in a few days time, you’ll find Dragic dead and robot nowhere to be found... or so it seems.
If you use Dragic’s lantern to guide you, you’ll find the robot sat sadly in the snow, alone.
