Five years after its initial release, Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2 continues to captivate gamers with its rich storytelling and immersive open world. While many fans of the series believe they have unearthed all the game’s secrets, a recent discovery has proven otherwise.

To undertake this unique adventure, players must activate a specific glitch to exit the main map and then head to the east bank of Lannahechee. By grabbing a canoe and rowing north with great patience, they can eventually reach the island. However, explorers beware; navigation in the water can be tricky, and adventurers must be mindful to stay on the correct course.
Once back on the island of Guarma, players can enjoy a variety of activities such as treasure hunting and discovering new animals not found on the mainland. As there are no horses or wagons, all exploration must be done on foot, offering a unique and challenging gameplay experience.
While many assumed the island would be barren after leaving it in the main story, this hidden journey opens up a surprising new dimension to the game. The gorgeous sites of the island can be enjoyed at leisure, and the treasure hunting opportunities provide a fresh experience for seasoned players.
