Red Dead Redemption 2

Realistic gunfights, knife fights, and beatings against human enemies with heavy blood spray; close-range shotgun and explosive hits can produce visible gore.

The player character drinks alcohol to the point of drunkenness, smokes, brews and sells moonshine, and consumes stimulant tonics and consumables.

Heavy subject matter including terminal illness, death, betrayal, grief, and the bleak collapse of the gang.

Robbery, train and stagecoach heists, and murder are core, rewarded activities, and the player can also rob or kill townsfolk and lawmen.

The online multiplayer mode sells gold bars and cosmetic items for real money.

A story mission has the player beat and interrogate a helpless man, and debt-collection missions involve roughing up victims.

Frequent strong profanity in dialogue, including repeated use of harsh swear words during arguments and violence.

A few unsettling encounters such as a serial killer's mutilated victims and eerie night 'folk' create brief spooky moments.

Prostitutes are present as background characters in saloons and towns, referenced but not sexually engaged by the player.

Explosives, dynamite, and point-blank shots can dismember or blow apart enemy bodies on screen.

Innuendo and crude sexual talk in saloons and camp banter, plus a fade-to-black implied encounter; no explicit acts are shown.

Saloons and towns offer poker, blackjack, and dominoes played with in-game money.

Brief revealing attire and partial figures (bathing, brothel dancers) with no full nudity in normal play.

Hunting and skinning wildlife for meat, pelts, and crafting is a core gameplay mechanic.

A stranger encounter involves a distraught man contemplating taking his own life.

Online purchases are optional and can be earned through play rather than forced.
