Red Dead Redemption: How To Reach Mexico

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent traversing various digital landscapes, I can confidently say that few experiences have been as exhilarating and immersive as my journey into the lawless land of Nuevo Paraíso in Red Dead Redemption. The Mexican territory, hidden behind broken bridges and inaccessible until certain story missions are completed, is a testament to Rockstar Games’ attention to detail and commitment to crafting a rich, living world.


In the vast world of “Red Dead Redemption,” there are three main regions that aren’t immediately accessible at the start of the game. One of these, the second largest, is a territory called Nuevo Paraíso, which lies to the south on the map. If players attempt to enter this region prematurely, they will encounter damaged bridges en route to Mexico. This guide explains the steps necessary for players to reach Nuevo Paraíso (Mexico) within “Red Dead Redemption.

Red Dead Redemption: How To Reach Mexico

In the game Red Dead Redemption, players must advance through the story to complete the missions called “The Assault on Fort Mercer” and “We Shall Be Together in Paradise”. These storyline missions will guide John Marston from New Austin to the region of Nuevo Paraíso.

Here’s what you need to do to enter Mexico in Red Dead Redemption.

Complete ‘The Assault On Fort Mercer’ Mission

The Attack on Fort Mercer serves as the 24th major mission in the game, Red Dead Redemption. In this mission, John Marston gathers Marshal Leigh Johnson, Eli, Jonah, West Dickens, Irish, and Seth Briars to launch an attack on Fort Mercer with the objective of capturing Bill Williamson.

The mission commences as the entire team conceals within West Dicken’s fortified carriage and advances towards Fort Mercer. Subsequently, a fierce gunfight erupts, with John employing the Gatling gun to subdue Williamson’s band of outlaws.

As the mission drew to a close, I stumbled upon a piece of intel from a captive gang member – Bill had fled to Mexico. That left John with no choice but to follow his trail. The ensuing events would set the stage for the next thrilling story mission in Red Dead Redemption, as we crossed the border into Mexico.

Take The Raft To Nuevo Paraíso In The ‘We Shall Be Together In Paradise’ Mission

In the 25th mission of Red Dead Redemption, titled “We Shall Be Together,” John Marston teams up with an Irish character for a river crossing expedition. This encounter takes place near the border, where John boards the Irishman’s raft to traverse the waterway and enter Mexican territory alongside his new ally, Nigel West Dickens.

The situation rapidly turns into a shootout, with John protecting the raft until it crosses the Mexican border. Upon crossing the border, Irish arranges for John to obtain a horse to reach Escalera, the capital city of Nuevo Paraíso. At this juncture in Red Dead Redemption, players are now free to traverse the Mexico section of the map.
