Can You Replay Missions in Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2)? Answered

Yes, missions in Red Redemption 2 can be replayed. Red Dead Redemption 2 has an individual rating for each mission you complete (just the missions, not the chapters themselves)—the better the rating, the better the medal, a gold medal being the highest.

Other than reliving some of RDR2’s greatest moments, earning a gold medal is the biggest reason for replaying missions, provided you’re an achievement/trophy hunter. With that said, there are a few details you should be aware of when replaying missions:

  • Progress doesn’t carry over into your main save; decisions are made in a vacuum and won’t affect the story.
  • You can replay missions once the mission is completed for the first time.
  • Challenges must be completed in a single run.

How to Replay Missions in Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2)

Keeping the previous information in mind, you’d like to travel back in time and try something different. Here’s how to replay missions:

  1. Pause the game at any point of your playthrough.

  2. In the pause menu, select Progress.

  3. Among the options available, choose Story.

  4. Choose a chapter you’d like to replay.

    Each chapter of Red Dead Redemption 2 is further broken into individual missions.

  5. Locate a mission you would like to replay and press the “Replay Mission” button.

    Additionally, press the “Toggle Checklist” button to display challenges that have or haven’t been completed for the highlighted mission. This will give you a checklist of what still needs to be done.

With that out of the way, you now know how to replay missions in Red Dead Redemption 2. It’s a great way to improve your rating or refresh your memory of the mechanics by revisiting tutorial missions.
