Nearly 3 years after its release,Red Dead Redemption 2is the game that keeps on giving. In this case, one fan discovered a gory detail that other players have probably experienced but overlooked.
Like the fact that on long journeysArthur will sing quietly to himself, this recent detail has a high chance of occurring on almost every playthrough. Unfortunately, this most recent discovery is much more brutal than the innocuous findings fans usually make. Redditor M-Crossy1 revealed that inRed Dead Redemption 2, upon landing a headshot on an enemy, gums—with teeth in tow—will sometimes be present in the gibbing.

In a game where theimpact of the firing pin on each bullet is shown, detailed gibbing is certainly no surprise, and perhaps should be chalked up as just another example of Rockstar’s diligence on this title. Since the majority ofRed Dead Redemption 2’s combat takes place at a distance and at a quick pace, it’s likely that most fans wouldn’t notice the detail even if it was triggered. With that in mind, there are only two sure-fire ways to see the gory gibbing in action: repeatedly shoot at an enemy’s head after they’ve already been killed, or get lucky enough for the slow-motion killcam to capture the effect.
Obviously, this is a detail that many in theRed Dead Redemption 2community have likely seen before, but it’s just another stunning example of the level of detail in the game. Since its release,Red Dead Redemption 2has inspired gamers to hunt for the smallest details. While players have flocked to all corners of the map in search of Easter eggs and other niche inclusions, a gory detail like this one, hiding in plain sight within the combat system, can be surprisingly easy to miss.
Even the most inveterate players still likely have plenty ofsecrets to uncover inRed Dead Redemption 2. For example, animals like opossums will play dead—like their real-life equivalents—if a player gets too close. There’s also a cave encounter with Bigfoot who has been spawned in out of the game files and revealed to be a Neanderthal of sorts. At this point, despite players having discovered hundreds of hidden details, there is likely still plenty more waiting to be uncovered by other diligent gamers.
Red Dead Redemption 2is now available on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
