The term refers to the geographical positions within Red Dead Redemption 2 where unique and powerful creatures, identified as legendary animals, can be found. These animals are distinct due to their exceptional size, coloration, and the valuable resources they provide upon being hunted. Identifying the specific area is a prerequisite for initiating a hunt.
Locating these special animals holds significant benefits within the game. Successfully hunting them provides access to unique crafting materials. These materials can then be used to create special clothing, accessories, and upgrades, improving the player’s character’s abilities and aesthetic. Furthermore, tracking and finding them is a core element of completion and allows to fully explore the game world.
