Learn how to track down and unlock each of the 18 outfits in Red Dead Redemption - many of which provide useful gameplay benefits.

There are a total of 18 outfits found throughout the world of Red Dead Redemption. 13 of these are from the original game and 5 were add-ons acquired through various ways. All 5 of the new outfits are included by default in all recent releases of the game. Only 9 of the 18 outfits are required for 100% completion. The following guide will help aid you in your quest to acquire them all.

Many of the outfits are only displayed in the "Outfits" pause menu when they have been discovered, which you'll usually do when completing one of the 'scrap' requirements for the first time.

Walton's Gang Outfit

This outfit is a Playstation 3 and Game of the Year Edition (including Xbox 360) exclusive. You must have either of those for the requirements to unlock. This outfit is included in all recent releases of the game.

Deadly Assassin Outfit

HOW TO OBTAIN:

You originally needed a code to unlock which were given away as pre-order incentives with various retailers. It was later released as DLC and included with the Game of the Year Edition. This outfit is included in all recent releases of the game.

  • Scrap 1: Search Coot's Chapel - Inside the Church you should find a chest in the back with the piece of scrap in it.
  • Scrap 3: Capture or Kill Mo van Barr - Appears as a bounty in Armadillo. He was my first bounty, so it's possible he's always the first one you encounter.
  • Scrap 4: Win a duel in Armadillo - You'll randomly be challenged by someone near the Saloon. Speak to them to accept. Shooting them in the gun to disarm them will avoid losing any honor.

You can also trigger duels by wearing the Elegant Suit and playing poker, then purposely failing the cheating mini-game. Your poker opponent will take you outside for a duel.

BENEFITS:

  • While wearing this outfit, the dead-eye meter regenerates twice as fast.

Expert Hunter Outfit

HOW TO OBTAIN:

A FREE downloadable outfit from the Playstation Store or the Xbox Live Marketplace. Check the store for more details. This outfit is included in all recent releases of the game.

  • Scrap 1: Harvest 5000 lbs of Meat - This is a hunter outfit, so if you want it you had better start hunting and skinning everything that moves. The bigger the animal, the more lbs of meat you'll harvest. Bears in Tall Trees will provide a large amount. Skinning a "War Horse" will provide 460 lbs of meat, but killing a horse will give you negative honor unless you're wearing the Bandana.
  • Scrap 2: Kill a Cougar with a Stick of Dynamite - You won't be able to purchase Dynamite until you complete "Mexican Caesar" in Nuevo Paraiso, around half-way through the story.
  • Using Dead Eye makes this a lot easier. Although it's tricky to paint the lock on target, it is possible if you keep pressing R1 while aiming the camera towards it. Once it's tagged, throwing the Dynamite will work like a homing missile and you'll get direct hit on the Cougar.
  • Scrap 3: Kill and Skin 8 Snakes - You can check your progress in the stats menu under both the "Collectibles" and "Misc." tabs. I found a lot of snakes seem to spawn on the road just East of MacFarlane's Ranch.
  • Scrap 4: Kill the Legendary Jackalope - They spawn all over the place and are probably only slightly rarer than regular rabbits. It's essentially a rabbit with antlers. You'll usually collect 'Buck Antlers' when skinning them.
  • Scrap 5: Complete "Deadalus and Son" Stranger's task - You'll need to acquire 10 Red Sage, 5 Beaver Furs and 20 Bird Feathers to complete the task. You can collect these in advance, so keep them in your Satchel for when you take on the Stranger mission to complete it quickly.

BENEFITS:

  • While wearing the outfit, you gather twice the amount of provisions when skinning animals.

Savvy Merchant Outfit

HOW TO OBTAIN:

A FREE downloadable outfit from the Playstation Store or the Xbox Live Marketplace. Check the store for more details. This outfit is included in all recent releases of the game.

  • Scrap 1: Win $1000 Total from Gambling - You can check your progress in the Stats menu under the "Money" tab. The easiest way to get this is during the Stranger task 'Lights, Camera, Action' where you need to play Liar's Dice in Thieves' Landing. The prize pot is raised to $200 per person during this task, so winning a few times can provide enough cash to complete the objective. Otherwise high stakes poker is an option.
  • Scrap 2: Buy or Sell Items at every Gunsmith - Even if you already have done this, you have to do it again. The Gunsmiths are located in Armadillo, Thieves' Landing, Escalera and Blackwater. Buying or selling ANYTHING counts towards this.
  • Scrap 3: Gather $200 worth of Herbs - You can check your progress in the stats menu under the "Collectibles" tab. Violet Snowdrops in Tall Trees are the most expensive herbs, so you'll need to collect significantly less of them than Wild Feverfew for example.
  • Scrap 4: Execute 20 people - You can check your progress in the stats menu under the "Combat" tab. A quick way to get this one is by traveling to Thieves' Landing. The law won't mess with you there. Unholster your gun by aiming it, run up to someone (without aiming your gun at them directly) and press R2 to shoot. You should see a small cutscene where the target is executed at close range - usually shot in the stomach.

BENEFITS:

  • While wearing this outfit you'll receive a 50% discount on all items available from Gunsmiths. This works in addition to other discounts you may have available for high Honor, essentially giving up to 75% off weapons and ammo.
