Follow our step-by-step guide to complete the 'Landon Ricketts Rides Again' mission in Red Dead Redemption, from starting the mission to facing enemies and securing the objective.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start the mission by heading to the yellow marker inside the bar in Chuparosa. After the cut-scene, hop on the train with Ricketts. You can skip the ride by pressing [B/Circle].
  2. 2
    When the train reaches 'Casa Madrugada', dismount and call your horse. Follow Ricketts until he meets his informant.
  3. 3
    Continue following Ricketts to a cave entrance in the hills. Stay in cover until the other men leave, giving you an opening.
  4. 4
    Enter the cave, pistol ready. Stay crouched and shoot the TNT crates and lanterns to make navigation easier, similar to the mine with Irish.
  5. 5
    When you reach the locked cell, take cover behind the crates to your right. You'll need to cover Ricketts while he sets explosives. You'll have a clear shot at enemies running up the hill.
  6. 6
    After Ricketts blows the charge, get ahead of him and clear out the enemy troops blocking your path back to the exit. Stay low and use cover.
  7. 7
    Once outside, get back on your horse and follow Landon up the hill.
  8. 8
    Prepare your rifle for a fight against several long-range enemies. Take them all out.
  9. 9
    Wait with Landon for his informant to arrive. The mission will conclude once they meet.
Tips
  • Use cover frequently, especially when dealing with enemy troops on the way out of the cave and during the final shootout.
  • Crouching makes you a smaller target and helps conserve ammo when shooting the TNT crates and lanterns.
  • Keep your rifle equipped for the long-range enemies encountered after leaving the cave.
