Last Updated

100% Completion Checklist

Our interactive checklist detailing every individual task you'll need to complete in order to earn 100% completion in Red Dead Redemption.

100% In Red Dead Redemption

For 100% completion in Red Dead Redemption, you must complete pretty much everything the game has to offer. There are 242 essential objectives that contribute to your completion percentage. Different tasks award different amounts of percentage to your total.

Rewards For 100% Completion

After earning 100% completion, the player will be awarded with the following:

  • You will unlock the "Bureau Uniform" which grants amnesty from the law. While wearing it, you'll never receive a bounty no matter what you do, although lawmen may still shoot at you if you engage in combat with them.
  • The Gold Trophy / 100GS Achievement "REDEEMED" is unlocked.

Not Required For 100%

You aren't obligated to do "everything" in the game for 100% completion. There are several side missions and tasks which are optional.

You do not need to do any of the following for 100% completion:

  • Acquire the "Pleasance House" safehouse. This is optional.
  • Rent the "Ridgewood Farm" or "Plainview" safehouses. As they're not purchasable properties they don't count towards 100%.
  • Complete the multi-part Stranger Side-Mission "I Know You".
  • Acquire any weapons other than those listed below.
  • Complete the Solomon's Folly gang hideout.
  • Acquire any outfits other than those listed below.
  • Break any additional horses other than those in missions or required Horsebreaking jobs.
  • Purchase any items from shops other than required outfit scraps and weapons
  • Complete the Explosive Rifle and Tomahawk challenges.
