Red Dead Redemption 2: Strangers Missions Walkthrough
This section lists all the Red Dead Redemption 2 Stranger Missions, optional assignments that involve colorful characters, and the time-sensitive Honor Missions.
For each mission, this guide includes Unlock Conditions, featured Characters, their Locations and complete Walkthroughs.
Stranger Side Missions
There are a total of 26 Stranger Quests that you can encounter, each featuring its own side story. All of the "Strangers" are initially marked with a (?) blip when you first approach their locations - their names are revealed only after you interact with them.
Some of these endeavors trigger the hunt for special Collectibles items to find around the world of Red Dead Redemption 2.

In addition, there are special time-sensitive Stranger Missions that have to be completed during specific moments of the Story Mode, being intertwined with the main storyline of the game.
