All Treasure Chests In Red Dead Redemption

by

As an old-time cowboy who’s been roaming the wild west of Red Dead Redemption for what seems like a lifetime, I’ve stumbled upon my fair share of hidden treasures and secret stashes. But these here treasure maps you’ve got here, they’re some of the best I’ve seen!

Finishing the Treasure Hunter Missions in Red Dead Redemption offers numerous advantages, and monetary rewards are merely one aspect. These tasks serve as optional activities that could leave you puzzled if you haven’t been meticulously discovering locations within the game world. The maps you uncover will contain a degree of detail, but they will only become clear if you remain observant for intriguing elements while completing missions.

All the Treasure Hunter Challenges are fairly easy to complete. However, you will need to do quite a few main story missions in Red Dead Redemption until you can unlock all the areas that the Treasure Chests are found in. For example, Tall Trees cannot be accessed until you complete the “An Appointed Time” mission in Nuevo Paraíso to unlock the West Elizabeth area. If you’re playing organically, it may take you quite some time till you wrap up all the Treasure Hunter Challenges and get the rewards.

Locations Of All Treasure Chests In Red Dead Redemption

During the early stages of the game, you’ll have an opportunity for a chance meeting that lets you kick off the challenges. Following this random encounter, you’ll receive a Treasure Map. Gathering each Treasure Chest along the way will reward you with a Gold Bar and a map to the next destination.

In the game Red Dead Redemption, it’s possible to offload your loot at any store in any town, but it’s wise to keep your “Honor” level in mind. Basically, if you’re aiming for a dishonorable playthrough, you’ll earn 50% more money at Thieves’ Landing, but you’ll get 50% less everywhere else. Conversely, if you maintain high Honor, this bonus reverses and you’ll make less at Thieves’ Landing while earning more elsewhere. In essence, by making a strategic choice about where to sell your goods, you can boost your earnings in the game.

In the following list, you’ll find the exact spots where you can gather Treasure Chests to accomplish the Treasure Hunter Challenges within the game “Red Dead Redemption”.
