So This is Where it All Began... | Playing Red Dead Redemption 1 for the First Time - Part 1
Ride into the legendary tale of John Marston, the reluctant outlaw forced to hunt his former gang to save his family.
Mission 1: Exodus in America
The game opens with Marston being escorted by federal agents Edgar Ross and Archer Fordham to the quiet frontier town of Armadillo.
Upon arrival, you meet your guide, Jake, inside the saloon and follow him on horseback toward Fort Mercer, the stronghold of outlaw Bill Williamson.
Tensions escalate quickly: Marston confronts Williamson, only to be shot and left for dead. A dramatic cutscene unfolds as he's rescued by Bonnie MacFarlane, setting the stage for his redemption arc.
This introductory mission sets the tone for the entire game—blending cinematic storytelling, horseback action, and themes of honor, loyalty, and the fading Old West.
Join us in this first episode as John steps off the boat and into danger… and a path toward redemption begins.
