Rare is the time you can solve a wild west scenario with a stealth kill, but they are in the game.

Doable by equipping the hunting knife, getting behind an enemy and prodding right trigger, RDR2's mapping of Arthur's position to his foe is WAY more generous than the finicky, only-worked-half-the-time kills of the original.

Personally, I've found this a useful way to approach gang hideouts and bandit camps - not to mention the occasional time you'll get the drop on a foe coming out a cutscene.
